Almost sold this watch many times. It's my only quartz and I much prefer the allure of a mechanical, but there really is something to be said about the comfortableness of titanium, not to mention the fact that the watch is always 100% dead on accurate and requires no fuss (atomic time keeping eco drive)

Cool watch. AT and eco drive has to be the ultimate for reliability. With the AT do you have any idea how often your watch receives a signal, i.e. if you were in a certain part of the country do you know if it always receives its signal?

It is always trying to get a signal, and with a press of one of the buttons, the watch will show you how strong a signal you currently have. I happen to live about 60 miles from the station in Ft. Collins, Colorado, so I always have an excellent signal. The watch is capable of keeping time without a signal though, and just runs like a "regular" quartz at that point I believe.

No, no, please, nooooooooo!

Original, natural finish is required but the aspect that the numerals on the bezel are now tarnished is just about spot on!

Controversial, maybe, but a good match IMHO.
