 When I saw this watch, I had to have it!  I found it very unique in that it has a working compass sandwhiched between two cyrstals and an outer ring with directional indicators...I have never seen such a watch before, thus, I was taken.  Upon arrival, it was nestled inside a very nice ESQ watch box.  I promptly began an inspection and was extremly happy with the results.  Although it is slighly smaller than most of my collection, It has enough presence to pull it off.  It was simple to size with push/pull pins and gaskets.  Once sized, I was a little suprised at how comfortable the wear of the watch was on the wrist.  Although the crystal is domed, It is not overly pronounced.  My biggest suprise was with the lume on this watch...Man does it ever light up!!  It also tends to last a little longer than most of my collection.  I guess, if I have to get a quartz model, at least I got a Swiss Quartz! LOL...Like I said, overall, I am really happy with this model.
