I received this new Android Decoy watch on Monday. I am very impressed with it. Awewsome presentation box (not pictured) and a wonderfully fun 44mm radiant orange dial watch inside. It is way better in person than in the pictures on the web. Nicely made and the strap is soft and immediately comfortable to wear. Nice big machined crown, screwed-in case back for easier battery changes, and a unique (for this price) sandwich dial with SuperLuminova treated hands and markers. Lumn is VERY bright on charge and looks terrific. Lumn lasts a fair amount of time, but not as long as some of my other watches. Hands glows longer than the dial.

Fit and finish is remarkable for a watch in this price range. I have never owned an Android before and I was only familiar with their cheaper Prime models. This is Premier model is definitely a step up in overall quality. I can't see anybody being disappointed with this watch. It is very comfortable to wear too. I don't feel like I am wearing a 44mm watch when I have this on. It just doesn't feel all that heavy. All in all, it is damn fun watch to have.

Yes, and the Italians wear some pretty cool watches. Such as Breil. Lots of color. Bright color dials, and straps in the shops.

 The dial has a radial sunburst pattern to it correct?  Really nice looking in close up.

Summer of 1986 made it to Naples. Could have scored some cool watches then. But back then beer and babes were my main interest when on land. LOL :D

Right now Naples has a HUGE garbage problem. Not the time to visit in some areas. :D

And, pigeons are everywhere in Venice.

Understood on the quartz.

However, I don't mind it one bit. It is just a fun watch to grab and go. Like I said, I've never owned an Android before, so I was quite surprised at the value vs. price for this watch. The box alone looks like something that would come with a $300 to $500 watch.

Very nice, Mike. You know I love the color and the sandwich dial is a neat touch. Looks like there are not only a lot of pigeons in Venezia but a good number of Americans...face4.gif

Your pictures look sooooooooooo much better than the watch displays on TV. Very bold dial on that beauty. Enjoy!

I hear that Venice also smells. :)

I'd say it is just average. Looks very bright for 10 minutes or so, then settles in to a dull lumn on the dial and good brightness on the hands for another couple of hours. Certainly quite readable in the dark. I charge it with a LED flashlight for the best results. It is super bright after a 30 second charge with the LED's. I am very happy with it. :)

Yes, it does smell from what we were told. But, it wasn't bad when we were there. A friend of mine (Italian) said the smell was really bad when she visited. She didn't care for it because of that.

Not sure about so many Americans. There were a lot of people from Asia and other parts of Europe there. We had some Americans, Britts, Dutch and Arabs staying in our Hotel. :)

BTW, here is a shot of the Ferrai Store front window for you:
