I'm very pleased with my purchase. I bought the Mount Royal matte finished silver plated half hunter as a keepsake in memory of my mother and her name and birth and death dates engraved on the back. The watch itself seems to Keep pretty good time once you get into the habit of winding it up on a daily basis. The watch is pleasing on the eye and creates a bit of a talking point when worn with a waistcoat and watch chain. Overall I'm very happy with my Mount Royal pocket watch.
