“The quality and design of this watch is great for the price point I love the watch. The mechanism however is not smooth as it pertains to the second hand. Rather than a consistent sweep, it is more irregular in its movement. It might be that the size and weight of the second hand is too large for the mechanism? I don’t know, I looked online and it looks like that is a common complaint. Overall, I am happy with my purchase.”
“So happy with my purchase of the Trappist-1 Auto I.S.S. The build quality is superb, it actually passed my high expections! - It feels as if a lot of love and care has gone into the design and production of this watch. The presentation box is also of the highest quality. Thanks Xeric.”
“The design of the watch is original and beautiful.
However, the movement of the seconds hand is stuttering. I do not know if the "constelletion" second hand is out of balance because of its shape.
The lume around the minute markers ring and the inner hour chapter ring is weak to say the least. This makes it very hard to tell time in the dark. Thanks to Xeric for including a tiny" but effective" UV light to charge the lume. I guess this is what was used for the photo shoot to accent the lume.
On the other hand, the packaging box is very nice , and the see through decorated movement are a plus if anyone really cares about such superficial issues with a time piece.
I would have preferred better quality lume application on the chapter ring for both hours and minutes, a 90xx Miyota mechanism which should be smoother and a sapphire crystal instead of the see through back of the jittery decorated movement.
I would have sent the watch back for a refund but I have decided to limit the damages.”
“Very nice design, comfortable strap, good working automatic self winding mechanism. All packed in a good looking box. Very beautiful view at dark time. All my friends and coworkers ask me to try this watch on their own hands :)”
“This is my first watch ever. This is truly an amazing watch, yes the time is a bit difficult to read, until you get used to it. It is just the right price for a first watch, and will hopefully be the start of my watch collection!”
