  I have to admit: I can’t tell time on a watch. I’m not ashamed. That’s why I have a cell phone. What? I was out in third grade when everyone made the plates with the cardboard hands, and to be honest, I’m not entirely sure the teacher knew how to tell time either. She had a sign up at the front of the class that said “Things What Bugs Me”. I struggled with that one for weeks before my mom told me to forget it and go back to reading chapter books that we weren’t supposed to be reading yet. But I saw this watch as a gold box special and couldn’t resist buying it. (Note: I didn’t try very hard to resist, if anyone asks.)
  
  I’ve never had an adult watch before, because I can’t tell time, so I never saw the point of spending money on a really expensive one.
  
  This one, however, is making me reconsider my choices up to now.
  
  First, it’s a very attractive watch. The three interchangeable bands (pink, white, black) are all pretty, and very shiny and sparkly on the front side, and leather on the back. The face is adorable, with its little cutout heart set all the way around with pink Swarovski crystals. I didn’t even realize until I opened the box that the back is also clear, so you can see the watchworks from the back as well. I’m very easily amused, I think it’s kinda fun to watch it work.
  
  Second, it keeps time remarkably well. I’m also not ashamed to admit that I had to google “automatic watch” to find out that this one winds itself, feeding off the kinetic (is that right? kinetic energy? I didn’t set the world on fire in physics either) energy generated by your movements. I’m also lazy, so I feared that the watch would run down halfway through the day. I am pleased to say that it did not. It ran down some time in the night, but after I reset it this morning, it’s been running like a charm all day. The numbers are very easy to read, and the hands are all very elegant. The hour and minute hands are pink, and the ticking second hand is black.
  
  Third, the interchangable bands are pretty easy to interchange. There’s a little bitty pin on each strap, and it pulls in the stops to release the watch from the case. Very easy. Even in the morning when you’re already running late. For example.
  
  Finally, the packaging is gorgeous. This is not a watch that you might have picked up just anywhere. The packaging sends a clear message: “This is what the box an expensive watch arrives in looks like. You may commence to being envious.” The watch comes in what I’m guessing is a signature Stuhrling box, which is a couple of inches longer than the watch itself. Storing the watch in the box all the time may be impractical (it’s nearly a foot long, plus two or three inches tall), but the box makes an excellent storage place for the bands I’m not using right now.
  
  Overall, an excellent purchase. Very worthwhile, and if you’re in the market for this kind of watch, you really should consider this one. Enjoy!
