Basically the title says it all. I picked up one of these brand new off eBay for $120 and I think this is a fantastic tool watch. I ended up with one for work as I’m in healthcare and didn’t want to gunk up my nicer GADA watch. It’s a great size for my slender wrist, easy to read and so far keeps great time! Yeah it’s an eco drive, not automatic but I mean for a watch I just can slip on and head to work I can’t think of a better model in ths price range. Definitely a firm recommendation from me for whatever that’s worth.

Like some others I wasn’t keen on the original strap but I picked up a few from CNS and I’m loving the single pass strap on it!

    I have a very similar watch, the Centric Instruments Lightwell MkIII. It’s a basic field watch, 39mm, sapphire with AR, screw down crown, 100m water resistance, and a Seiko solar movement. The only real difference is it doesn’t have a date complication (which is my preference).

      My issue is that 37mm is really the max size that I like on my slim wrist. Plus I often have to ask patients the day and date so it’s helpful when I know that info, hahahaha
