Pros & Cons
Pros
The size and clarity of the display are also good for my tired aging eyes.

Howard & co. Is a company based in oak brook, il. This is the second watch my husband has had with this company. He likes it and found it very fun to see the atomic time setting.
The wrist band is a good quality leather that fits well. Only drawback for me is personal; i prefer a metal expandable or clasp band. Love the watch, not crazy about the band.
Cons
The minute hand pointer is all over the map as to position. The wrist band is just big enough to get around my wrist. My $25 timex is much better and lasts until the case wears out.
Highlights
Quality
Great watch, accurate, easy to use and la crosse backs their products.
The wrist band is a good quality leather that fits well.
Moral of my story is this watch is like any quality timepiece it's not un-breakable.
Problem with the last watch, failed to receive updates to time.
Price
I recommend this item without reservation, particularly at the price at which it is offered.

T took five days for the radio control signal to find a way to my watch’ receiver, and it finally got that “radio tower” icon displayed.
Packaging/appearance
Actually i was quite surprised when the watch came in a very attractive wooden box!
First of all, the watch i received was not exactly like in the photo.

On the face the finish is polished not matte and there is a pusher at 4 oclock this is used to switch between seconds and date on the digital display as well as for setting
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The recessed pusher shown in the amazon illustration is actually located on the other side of the dial at 8
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The dial is highly readable during the day but lacks any lume or backlight for reading in the dark
