Budget Watchmaker's Watches...

Thanks xizor. Yea it definitely looks more expensive than it is, which I guess is a good thing
In my three weeks of ownership so far, it's been great. Looks good on the wrist, feels sturdy and well built.
Was a bid unhappy that the minute had was trailing the second hand ie: when the second hand came round to start a new minute, the minute hand was not exactly lined up with the minute marker, only lined up when the second hand was about 15 seconds into the new minute.
Turns out, when the time was set, it was not done so correctly. According to the manual it has to be set at 30 seconds into the minute, don't know why, but I re-set it accordingly and now the two hands follow each other perfectly.
So all in all, very happy with my purchase

Much appreciated Chris!
It is a great watch and despite having the same movement as the Tag Heuer F1 is almost half the price. I must try one to see how I feel with it before I pull the trigger. I'm worried about looking to small on my wrist. Does it only come with a leather bracelet?
