Automatic Watch

I received my watch yesterday. I really love this watch. It is a real Beauty. I will recommend Speidel Watches to all my friends.

Very attractive timepiece, nice weight, fit my (big) wrist right out of the box. Exciting to see all the gears / movements, especially the self-winding mechanism clearly viewable through the back panel.

Disappointed that the watch gains 5-10 sec/day - not an issue with other Speidel watches I own. In fact I had to return the original one they sent me because it gained 30+ sec/day! But the fact that it's a fancy, potentially more formal watch make it more of an occasional accessory (not really something you'd wear to the gym) so needing to reset it periodically is not too much of an issue - and I expect it could be better synchronized by a watch technician at some point in the future.

Also silver hands on silver gears make it a little hard to tell time on the fly, but I'm getting used to it. Maybe different colored hands would make it a bit easier.

Still, all in all, a very attractive watch, and satisfying to wear.
