★★☆☆☆
Cheap, ugly, and clunky. Kind of like a boxy, ill-fitting, cheap suit.
I picked this up when I was new to watches and even then I could tell this was a cheap and ugly watch. The design is boxy, clunky, and not at all elegant or classy. The strap is stiff and far thicker than it needs to be. The watch is overpriced, has a hilariously cheesy/gimmicky piece of marble glued onto the back with an even funnier phrase written around it, and to top it all off they try to call it a luxury watch. I can't believe it has such a high rating here, but then again similarly cheap fashion watches like MVMT and Daniel Wellington are popular and doing extremely well. This watch reminds me of boxy, poorly cut, cheap suits. Seriously this watch will make you look clueless and goofy, just like an ill fitting, ugly suit. Sorry if that offends anybody who likes this watch, but it's kind of like pointing out to someone who unknowingly wears square toe shoes how awful it looks. They might be a little defensive or even hurt at first, but will probably be glad they stopped wearing things that actually make them look worse.
Seiko and Orient are very well respected brands that offer far better quality with automatic movements at this price point, with some Seiko 5's going for as low as $55-$60! Cititzen offers some decent entry level watches as well. Take the time to research and learn more about watches before you spend money on them. You'll be glad you skipped this brand!
