good for the money and my first starter pocket watch
I wanted to get a nice pocket watch but I didn’t want to jump into something that was $200- $500 at first but decided to get a starter watch and move up from there, but I’m pretty happy with it. I may even buy a secondary design. They’re really nice looking. Solid watch. The weight is nice. Build quality seemed fine and it looks beautiful at least for me. Pretty easy to use not complex.just wake up at a specific time in the morning and start winding them I started winding mine at about 10 AM or midday the very first time and by the time the next they hit in the morning I just basically kept winding at a.m. time so that it’s 9 AM to 9 AM or earlier if that way, I can get into a rhythm of doing it every single time in the morning if I wake up a little earlier like 7 AM or 8 AM I just start the process therethere is something people need to know about pocket watches that are mechanical. They can accidentally stop working if they get magnetized so keep them away from magnets. This includes your cell phone like an iPhone has a MagSafe magnet right behind the back where where you clip, metal wallets, and accessories Those can magnetized the watches.Include simple magnets, like the stuff people use to pin pictures on the refrigerator, etc. so if you keep it in your pocket, make sure it doesn’t have a cell phone inside of it or anything magnetic period for the most part. It’s pretty simple to use.And in case you’re not aware, you can demagnetize them by buying an item that specifically designed for de magnetizing pocket watches, you just wave it over the item. They can go anywhere from $10-$20 for more professional one.

Great product. Works great and looks great.
It is a great product and looks great with my steampunk style outfits. I love pocket watches and have two of my grandfather's.

Niche item. Not a bad price for a mechanical watch.
Cute watch. Mostly for show as the charge on the spring is no more than a single day. The accuracy is very poor at about 6-10 minutes slow a day. I haven't tried to adjust the pendulum as I don't want to make it even worse.Case materials are cheap, maybe tin? The crystal is polycarbonate, so don't keep it in a very dirty pocket, or one with debris I side.A fair price for what you get, but if you want quality, look to spend much more than $20.

Low cost for a good watch!
Having never bought a pocket watch, I was worried that due to a lower price, I would be receiving a very cheap product. Nope. This thing works well, and looks fantastic! It's just what I wanted!

Attractive and timely
Not a pun ,This Retro Railroad pocket watch is really nice looking and choosing the mechanical version was deliberate for a Grandson who treasures history and nostalgia!
