Hard to tell time on this timepiece     On: 2007-06-27

I have had this watch about a month, and while the watch is beautiful and its various functions work very well, It most basic function, telling time does not. At least not for older eyes.

Specifically, the minute hand is much too narrow and hard to see. It can often be obscured by the red chrono hand, or it often blend into the white face or the gold tone chrono dials. If you need reading glasses, you will most likely not be able to tell where the minute hand is without them, and therefore npot be able to tell what time it is! If your reading glass magnigication is over 2.00 you may not be able to find the minute hand even with your reading glasses on! Even bright sunlight doesnt help this problem due to reflections.

Perhaps the blue or black dial versions of this watch are easier to read, but the gold edges of the minute hand and the glow in the dark center of the minute hand contribute to its being very hard to find on the white dial version of the watch.
