A mixed bag... Impressive attention to detail on face. Crisp printing, diamonoids placed ok. Great looking case and bezel. Convincing crystal etching. Good gold color and finish. Everything's swell at first glance, but...
Negatives: Band issues. Links inconsistent, some too stiff, all have side play. Sloppy creases on lug inserts. Bad screw in sizing link, impossible to remove, had to 'break' link (separate it laterally) to compensate. (long band!) Bad plating on clasp "crown". (things add up once you look for them, huh?) Hologram sticker WAY off-center, overlapping bevel. (can't be removed without damaging it) Movement POORLY CALIBRATED; gained 15 seconds in 2 hours. The men's models I've gotten had nowhere near the quality issues. Too bad. If I weren't handy, I'd return it.
