Wristwatch Men’s Royal Classic Roman Index Automatic-self-Wind Mechanical Watch

This watch has an excellent mechanism at it's heart,17 jewels for reduced pivot friction to ensure smooth movement that aids in time accuracy, and a very nice styling for any man's wrist. If serviced regularly (every 5 to 7 years) I can see no reason it would not be usable for a lifetime.The crystal is mineral crystal which is scratch resistant but less likely to shatter with impact than the more scratch resistant sapphire crystals of more expensive watches. The movement in cases in a stainless steel case which give a nice weighty feel (not to light or not too heavy.) It also has the complication of an automatic wind to provide energy to the main spring without the need to manually wind but still allow for a manual wind from the crown if needed or preferred.The balance is capable of being adjusted for time regulation as well as beat error if required in the future but mine came keeping time within the specification you would expect of a 17 jeweled movement. The hands are without luminescence so if that is something you want you won't find it here. But for 30 dollars USD, it's a very good mechanical movement.I heard that these types of movements from China are plagued with quality control problems but this one is running well, keeps good time, and do so in a style I was looking for.If you want a nice mechanical watch with minimal complications without breaking the bank, I can recommend it without reservations. If you are looking for a name, or high $ watch check out Seiko, Rolex, or Heck get a Grand Seiko spring drive if you want to drop a few grand on a time piece. Anyway I just wanted to put a review of my new watch out there which I feel is based on a bit of horological knowledge and no snobbery about how the 3000.00 USD watches are better. I have no problem with pricey watches, but if you want a solid timepiece with little fussy and no muss, consider these movements before you look at pricier options.

Flawless watch for the price. The band is very easy to use and adjust. No batteries necessary. The look is spectacular and winding up the watch is effortless. For people that only wear a watch to work and not 24 hours a day I recommend only winding it 12 times for 12 hours. It’s easy to remember. The second hand of the watch glides instead of that annoying tick-tick-tick sound I’ve grown to hate. 5/5. Great design and very user friendly. The back of the watch is probably my favorite part.

In person, this watch looks amazing! I was hesitant to purchase it because of the price range. I figured the quality wouldn't be very nice. But I was completely wrong. It looks like it is worth a lot more money than the price it is listed at. The only thing that could been better is if it actually came with the correct instructions. Unfortunately, the directions we received were for a completely different watch model. Overall, my husband absolutely loved it!

This watch looks soo lux, beautiful, and eye catching. It's made to wear with your favourite suit. It feels so expensive and classy, and I find myself marveling and starring at its micro mechanical Heart Ticking in action. It makes me happy wearing it. I've always wanted one of these watches, and if EVER at all I've seen a retailer have them in the past decade, they tend to be bland or ugly and hideously overpriced.

My husband ordered this watch because he thought it looked cool. It is a pretty good looking watch, especially for the price, but it only lasted about a week before it just completely stopped working. I knew it wouldn't last for years because it was cheap, but I still expected more than a week. I am annoyed because I can't even return it because I threw away the packaging. I definitely do not recommend this product.

Looks very expensive and it looks like it should cost $300 very good price I hope it last a lifetime

This watch had such great promise. Good price, and good looks!Unfortunately the dial is not well aligned, so 12 is not exactly at the top, and 6 is not exactly at the bottom. That's not too big of a deal though when compared to the real issue: I have only been able to successfully wind it twice. There is some strange resistance when spinning the crown that feels like it's warped/bent and rubbing because of it. However, after rotating the crown counter-clockwise, which it should handle just fine, it was no longer engaging correctly to allow me to wind it. Due to the design I can clearly see the ratchet that's not engaging, and sometimes I can get it to re-engage if I pull the crown out and snap it back in (going from time-setting back to winding). But it doesn't engage strongly enough to ensure winding, so it usually puts up a tiny bit of resistance, then slips back off the ratchet, spinning freely instead of winding once more.

Was sent in a oversized envelope, arrived with foam packing out of its box. The box itself was in such bad shape, i was seriously concerned about what condition id find the watch in.The watch is beautiful, just as shown in photos.Directions are horrible, had to guess and hope i didnt break the band when i was trying to adjust it to my wrist.So, overall for just over 20 dollars... cool watch. Buy again from this seller, no.
