“The regulator automatic watch is just an amazing and very different timepiece. The mechanics of this watch are well made and the whole concept of the watch is different. It truly is a talking piece and my all time favorite to wear.”
“First, the watch is very beautiful, with a wonderful design.
The strap is of very good quality and nice color.
The size of the dial is like described, the watch is perfect for small wrists.
Some points need to be improved in my opinion :
The blue dial is not perfect: I can see the grey color inside the blue throught the circles. It's ok with artificial lights, but with natural (solar) light you can see the small fault.
- When you move your wrist, the semicircle shaped weight is noisy that's not very pleasant
- A small detail is about the crown of the watch, I hope the logo XERIC would be on it. It would be appreciated.
Finally, I'm happy with the watch design and just a few things need to be improved in the next version from my point of view.”
“Been wanting a blue face for some time, and this one caught my eye. Love the alternatives of the blue slate and copper sky models, but in the end it had to be good old royal blue. (Perhaps I'll pick up one of the others later...?) The watch is solidly constructed, a little chunky, but well-proportioned. Bear in mind I've got skinny wrists--so for many this won't be a problem at all. It sits well, feels good all day long, and it just looks great. As with my Nomos, it's nice to know there's a Horween strap holding the timepiece securely to my wrist. I love the way the three functions (H M S) are separated on their respective pinions, lending a pleasingly balanced asymmetry to the face, nicely set off by Xeric's understated logo at 2 o'clock. They did well there. My only gripe is that the minute indices don't have more contrast. This is patently obvious in the description and photos on the website, so I'm not saying I was deceived in any way. But I might wish they'd be a bit more visible, which in anything other than strong light they aren't quite. Still, that's okay with me. I just have to look at my watch a few seconds longer to tell the exact time, which is not exactly a hardship in the case of this little beaut.”

Hey Shannon!
Thanks for your review! That's a great idea to make the indices pop a little more. Keep the comments coming because we're always looking for new design options!
