“It's beautiful, the high beat sweep is mesmorizing, and I love the Waldhoff emblem used as a counter weight on the second hand. On my wrist with a full wind, this watch is pretty consistently 5 seconds fast per day. I'm happy with that, though it does speed up to as much as 18 seconds fast per day as the power reserve nears depletion. The rotor has no trouble keeping the watch fully wound though. In fact, if I power it up with two winds, it will easily wind itself up to full power through the day. I enjoying twisting the crown in the counter-clockwise direction as a mindless fidget, as this emits an enjoyable clicking while a cog jumps back and forth near the crown. Marks against the watch include a displeasing whirring noise as you wind the crown, lume that lasts 3-4 hours on a full charge, and an unusually loud rotor. Unsurprisingly, legibility on this skeleton watch is rather low, but that just lures you into watching the heart beat, or the seconds sweep. It's unique, it's punching above its weight, especially if you can get it on a bit of a sale, it's just a bit loud at everything it does.”
