Very nice watch I ordered this watch from Amazon and it arrived before the estimated delivery date. I love the watch, and it looks much better in person than in pictures on the web. Quality is very good and the hands line up perfectly. The luminova is evenly applied and lasts longer, actually all the way through the night, which I didn’t think would be the case. The only feature I don’t like is the canvas band, which I found uncomfortable. I’m sure it’s fine for others, but still a black leather band for less than (…)(any jewelry store or online store) compliments the watch very well, and it no longer looks like a ‘weekend watch’.

My second hand is spot on.”The mineral crystal appears to be pretty thin. I haven’t scratched the glass yet (that’s what it sounds like) but I suspect it’ll scratch pretty easily.” – I have not noticed this. My first eco-dive never had a scratch and I worked construction while wearing it. *edit* One year later this watch has scratches all over it.”The crown does stick out just a wee bit too far.” – I had the same problem with my first citizen watch, and this one is about the same, but it does not really bother me.”the inside of the sleeve is NOT sewn, but GLUED” – This is true. I have not…
