Great watch. Seems to keep descent time. Has lost 2 seconds in 24 hours. Fits my 8 1/4 wrist great. Like the story behind it as an advertising gimmick, but it’s really just a gimmick in the end. I think would be better if was geared towards all the WWII vets. But I like it just the same.The biggest reason I chose this over others. I like the looks. Clean and basic. I found other brands to have more cluttered dials. Bulova a bit small for my large wrist. Hamilton is harder to adjust, you have to send it in and I like to tinker with my watches. Islander is great but dial is too busy for my. I did consider the timex with the seagul manual wind movement. All in all I think this is best representation and I just like it. Great watch.
