Won this guy on eBay for $79.00. Initially, I am very happy with this watch. Been wanting a nice BIG diver, and this one fit my requirements, without being too pricey. I wanted to keep it simple and easy to read, so I wanted big, wide hands and blocky nemerals, with lots of lume. So far, so good.  The second hand has a nice little "glob"  tip that is also easy to read. The face is attractive, with an egg-crate pattern. Frankly, I could do without the month and 24-hr wheels at 12:00 and 6:00, but...they're OK.  The little lumed day dial at 9:00 is a nice touch.

The watch is big, at 44 mm, but not huge; nice knurled-edge bezel, and the watch case is screwed into a cradle, which forms the lugs. Screwed, exhibition, back. The strap is also nice and BEEFY, and long; nice to see on a watch at this price point.

Disappointed that the crown and pushers are not screw down, but that's OK. Not sure what the movement is, but it is engraved with the "Aeromatic 1912" logo. 

Altogether, a nice watch for the $$$; love the old world styling, too.

Jim
