Yeah, it will be the smallest watch in my collection aside from a couple watches I received years and years ago. But I love the dial and the alarm will come in handy when I'm traveling (I'm a sound sleeper).

Very nice watch! I wanted to get for my wife too! In fact I saw it a few months back, but realized it was a quartz. And with the bodyguard alarm(cos you never know if it goes off by itself like short circuit :P), it consumes more power from the battery. So I decided not to get it but I have to admit it is a beautiful timepiece! Congrats!

I seen a watch like this a few months back and thought it was really nice looking until I noticed the size but then again that use to be the nominal size of men's watches. Nice Watch OR . My question would be how do you set the alarm? I see there are 2 pushers one at the 2 o'clock pos and the other at the 7 o'clock pos guessing that the one at the 7 is where you push to set it .........................can you explain pls.:cool:

Greg,

My guess is that one has to press both button to trigger the alarm. It is not a normal alarm you find in watches but a BODYGUARD alarm. I think it needs 2 buttons cos if it has only one button to trigger the alarm, then one could press it accidentally.
