How do you like it? I've been thinking of getting one.
This was my first day wearing it but so far so good. Acrylic of course so I'm anticipating scratches and Polywatch. The whole watch definitely feels heavier than the standard Q. I didn't even unwrap the bracelet yet but when I was reading reviews, a few people noted that it was better than some of the other Q hair-pullers. It's actually quick release which is cool. This strap is from Strap Habit but I also found out yesterday that the Vario strap for the Casio Royale fits this Q case perfectly. So I'm sure I'll get one to share between watches. The chronograph works fine, lines up and resets to 12. I timed some really important stuff like my tea kettle and my drive to the store. Both were world records....for me. No loud ticking from the Seiko movement. Even with the short lugs, the size is about perfect for me. Honestly the dial seems like it belongs on a more expensive watch. The sub-dials seem to have some texture. I'm not wild about 24 hour sub-dials, but I also really try not to let that type of stuff bother me too much. None of my watches have to be perfect. They just have to make me happy for one day...after which I put on a different shiny new gizmo. The one noteworthy criticism I can think of is that the hands can kind of disappear a bit at certain angles. A slight flick of the wrist fixes that, but it does affect legibility. Also I really like the Q at 12 and I just always like seeing Timex on the dial. This was typed by a real person.
Good mini review. And congrats on the 2 new WRs!! (Also written by a real person)

%99 of people do not notice or care whats on your wrist. All that matters is that YOU like what you see.

Thanks, I appreciate it! But kinda sounds like something a bot might say. 🤔
