Summary of user reviews:
It smells like a well-placed product. Not perfect… but clearly assumed.
Out of 11 returns, we have a satisfied core group (8 positive or neutral opinions), with 2–3 more critical comments, especially on the materials. Nothing dramatic, but… it hurts a little on the finishes.
What stands out? The visual hits hard. The rest follows — without shining.
Positive points:
- Widely validated aesthetics (6/11)
“Lovely”, “elegant”, “stunning”, “spectacular”… the dial does the job.
Special mention to the black/gold contrast and the sundial → clearly a purchase trigger. - Good value for money (2/11 explicit, but implicit in 4–5 reviews)
Users know what they are buying. And they accept compromises.
Basically: “at this price, OK”. - Strap comfort (1/11)
No hair pinching → detail, but revealing vs old A700 type models. - Correct visual finishes (2/11)
Satin effect, not too “cheap”, sandblasted dial appreciated. - Sufficient functionality (1–2/11)
Nothing exceptional, but it does the job. No major frustration.
Negative points:
- Fragile glass / scratches (1/11)
“Very cheap glass” → that’s the real weak point.
And often, when one says it… others mean it. - Average metal quality (2/11)
Overall feeling: correct, nothing more.
We are clearly on the entry/mid-range. - Backlight criticized (1/11)
Absence or weakness → gadget for some, annoying for others.
Shared/mixed points:
- The very marked design
Some people love the contrasting and sunny side.
Others… well, they don’t say it outright, but radio silence → that doesn’t please everyone. - Price vs. quality positioning
Accepted by the majority.
But implicitly: “you shouldn’t be too demanding either”.
Advice :
Clearly? If you want a watch that is visually impactful, inexpensive, and hassle-free → go for it.
But… if you’re the type to scrutinize the details, to want solid glass, premium metal – wrong target. Frankly.
It’s a pleasure watch. Not a “flawless long-term” watch.
In short, you buy it for the style. Not for durability.
