Customer Reviews
I LOVE THIS WATCH
I've been stalking this watch for over a year and I finally decided to take the plunge and buy it. Originally when it came out it was very expensive (over $600). I went to a few department stores to see it in person during the many Christmas sale events that were going on and the lowest I saw it priced was at $505.00 (with all the discounts included). That being said, this was a great deal at just over $300. The watch looks MUCH better in person. I've read other reviewers say that the photos don't do it justice. I agree with them. When I received it, I was definitely impressed. It's just the right balance between sporty and professional. I can wear it to work as well as when go out. It has a great timing feature that makes it much easier to read than the traditional chronograph watches (traditional circle design). This one looks like a car dashboard, which I think is really cool. Additionally, I don't really need to time something over 40 minutes, so it works out great for me. You can definitely use this for outdoor sports such as swimming or running, although I personally find this watch too good looking to use for these activities. When I run or swim I just slap on my trusty G-Shock. I've only had this watch for a short time and already I've been getting many compliments on it. I have absolutely no regrets buying this watch. The only thing I wish it had was a backlight. But I knew going in that it didn't have one, so I'm not complaining. It's a great watch for the money and if you're thinking about buying one, I suggest you go for it. You won't regret it!
Simply nice.
The pictures of this watch simply do not do it justice. I had ordered from Amazon and received the watch promptly in approximately 1 week (not bad for free shipping). This is simply a gorgeous watch. The SPC001 has a nice weight to it, it actually feels quite heavy and gives the watch a feeling of heft and quality that is oftentimes absent with plastic digital watches of today. The face of the watch diameter is larger than a $0.25 piece and very close to the diameter of a silver dollar. The buttons are solid and have a very nice feel to them. An added benefit that is not mentioned is the brushed steel band w/ the polished stainless steel accents. This provides the band w/ extra durability from scratches and will help preserve the beauty and luster of the band. Prior to purchasing this watch, I was going to purchase a Tag Heuer, but opted for this watch and I sure am glad of my decision at this point in time. Very nice watch. The only reason why I dinged this review one star is the absence of military time on the dial/face. I work w/ the 24hr period and need military time, but this is only a very small inconvenience for an awesome watch.
Excellent watch
I purchased this watch about two months ago and have been wearing it since I received it from Amazon. Amazon's service in this regard was excellent. The watch itself is also top-notch, both in looks and function. Despite its large size, this watch sits comfortably and squarely on the wrist, primarily because, as anothe reviewer has pointed out, it is suprisingly (and pleasingly) thin. It is one of the best designed watches I own and I am enjoyng wearing it. Especially at the price on Amazon, this purchase is well worth it.
