“This is an amazing watch! A true conversation starter but at the same time easy to read. Like all xeric watches, it also serves its true purpose and keeps time very accurately! One of the BEST automatic watches I have ever owned!”
“Great watch, get comments all the time. Only complaint is the flags don’t glow in the dark unless you “charge” them with a light, so it’s difficult to read at night.”
“Very cool and striking watch, but there's a flaw: It's hard to read the hour indication. This is because the shadow cast by the face plate makes it hard to see the indicator. (Note: if the lume is active, or the watch's face is directed towards the light, it's still completely readable).
(Also in the pictures it looks like the minute hand glows in the dark, but mine doesn't seem to do this (nor do the watches of the users who have attached photos)... That said, this doesn't really bother me that much, but would have been cool)
These are unfortunate, but... honestly I wear Xeric watches mostly for looks, and this watch looks amazing, so these drawbacks only bother me a little.”
