However, some owners find the watch wears a little small, and one owner returned it due to a ghost-date issue and the watch stopping once every 24 hours, with another reporting the watch stopped when the seconds hand reached 60. The design is described by one owner as somewhat uninspired, aside from the custom dial, due to common mod parts.
