Owners highlight its value, with one calling it one of their best affordable watches at $170, and appreciate the dual-part case construction that contributes to a reduced thickness. The blue dial is noted for its attractive play of light, and the screw-down crown is easy to operate. However, the lume is considered average, and some desire a higher beat movement.
