Stuhrling Original Men's Lifestyle 'Winchester' Automatic Skeleton Watch #165.3335E31 Review

I received my watch today and the word for it is "striking". My wife calls it "heavy" meaning very impressive. My kids say it is very good looking. I ordered it because the skeleton feature makes it rather unique. I got bored wearing watches since 2002 and have not worn any since then until this evening. My cellphones prior to this evening have doubled as my timepiece. My interest in my watches rarely exceed 18 months at the most, I hope this will exceed my prior more expensive watches from Citizen, Seiko, Bulova and Pulsar.Interestingly , my cheapest watch a black background Lucienne was my most loved watch.This Stuhrling skeleton watch renewed my interest in watches. I accidentally stumbled on it at amazon while browsing the Sony 52 XR6 LCD TV. Time will tell if it is a durable watch and can sustain my interest longer than the other watches that I have had.I like automatic watches despite the fact that they either loose or gain 2.5 secs a day.You just have to reset them every week or two. Another trick is, every morning wear your automatic watch on the wrist of the hand you use in holding your toothbrush while brushing your teeth.Hence, you are simultaneosely whinning your watch for the day while brushing your teeth at the same time. This keeps your watch accurate on a daily basis and you will not need to adjust it weekly or every two weeks.

I have some suggestions for the makers of this watch.
1. Make a similar design with quartz movement for those not comfortable with the nuances of automatic watches.
2. Include a date feature in subsequent models.
3. I wish the hour markers were in Roman numerals than Arabic. The Arabic numbers look amateur, I wish the craftsmanship will improve in this area if they must continue using Arabic numbers.
4. A smaller version for Ladies will be welcome. My wife asked if there was a lady version.The Lady's skeleton watch from Stuhrling with the love symbol looks very toyish and unserious. I wonder if it was designed for teens.

I look forward to a sustained interest in this rather unique looking watch!
