 Pulsar Men's Dress Watch #PJ6007 By: Pulsar Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 9 More Information Exceptional Accuracy at a Very Attractive Price  On: 2008-03-26The subject watch is quite similar to an earlier "Railroad Approved" wrist watch made under the Seiko brand. The two are the same "caliber" (that is, size), but not the same mechanism. Earlier, the Seiko "Railroad Approved" watch had an enameled dial while the Pulsar watch had a paper dial. With the PJ6007, the Pulsar version has been upgraded to incorporate an enameled dial for very high contrast and for easier reading in poor lighting conditions. The PJ6007 has also been upgraded to 100 meters water resistance, from, I believe, 30 meters. Although perhaps one-half as expensive as the Seiko-branded "Railroad Approved" watch, this Pulsar is an exceptional performer. The "hack" feature works well, enabling one to set the watch dead-on to a time server. Time-keeping is exceptional. The watch neither gains nor looses a second in several weeks, easily besting any of the several "Railroad Approved" watches I own, including Seikos. The adjustable band is very difficult to adjust. To remove a link you must push the pin out from the smaller of the two side openings using a very small, yet very stiff tool. Once the trick is learned, band adjustment can be effected within a few minutes, but the first link takes about a half-hour to accomplish. Removing links accomplishes a coarse adjustment of band size. A fine adjustment is available on the clasp, with three positions there. The Pulsar PJ6007 is an exceptionally good time-keeper, and with the upgraded enameled dial it is an exceptionally attractive "Railroad Approved" wrist watch, too, certainly equal to the more expensive Seiko in that respect. Pulsar RR approved face  On: 2007-05-12I have a Times watch w/a great large easy to read face and was looking for something a little more upscale which had day/date as well. This Pulsar filled the bill. It is good looking, very accurate and has an easy to read face. Pulsar Men's Dress Watch #PJ6007 On: 2007-03-12Great fit & finish....looks more expensive. Very easy to see dial, nice sized day and date windows. Newer type clasp very easy to put on & remove. Time keeping very good vs. WWV. Excellent value for the money. My other pulsar lasted many years until, unfortunately, lost. Id buy the same again, unhesitatingly. Quality Analog Watch - Gadget-Free On: 2007-03-09I want a watch which will tell me the time with a clear face and arabic numbers. I will probably not bother to reset the day-of-the-week and date window - it is a nuisance to do it and I would order the watch without it if I could. Pulsar watches last a long time. My only complaint is lack of instructions for shortening the stainless band -- which is exactly the kind of Seiko band that I like. You can figure it out if you stare at it for awhile. Great looking watch,so so band. On: 2007-02-28When I received this watch I was actually stunned at how nice it looked.It seemed pretty sturdy too and all for under 50 dollars door to door.However I had to take it to a jeweler to be sized for my wrist.It was on my second return visit to the jeweler to stop a pin from falling out that he stated that the band is "not a good quality band". He had to use a glue in order to keep the offending pin in place and so far so good. Great watch, So-So band. On: 2007-02-13The watch itself was everthing I thought it would be at a great price. The band did not fit. I tried to adjust it but it would not change. I had to take it to a jewler and pay 10$ to get it right. Over all I am very happy with it. Great Watch On: 2007-02-08Not only a good looking watch, but it only takes a glimpse to tell time, the face is so user friendly. And then a super buy, thanks!
