My mother's watch broke, I found this one which looked great and was a good price. It looks great out of the box. There is a small piece of plastic holding the crank, I removed it and pressed to start. It's hard to find a watch that isn't automatic and my mother loves winding watches. The strap is perfectly adjustable and very easy to do with the included screwdriver and I really like this type of strap. So easy to set up. And after adjusting, it stays the same where it never slips. Mom's been wearing it for a while and it's still going great. No cons, my mother is very happy with my purchase.
