I searched for years for a skeleton that was a good value and mechanically sound. I had previously bought a mechanical skeleton and the winding mechanism gears stripped out nearly out of the box. I was determined to purchase a higher quality watch yet not pay a tremendous price.
I am a mechanical engineer and will stare at this watch often during long boring meetings. It will memorize you, and will be a good conversation piece.
I shied away from buying this earlier because I did not think the pictures looked that great, it took a bunch of positive feedback to convince me it was worth the risk. The pictures accurately represent the watch, but I would say it is richer and more elegant looking than the pictures let on. High mirror shine on the stainless steel, a good fit and comfortable- this coming from a person who normally wears a watch once or twice a month. I was worried the anodized aluminum hands would look cheap compared to the rest of the watch, but they don't. They are bold enough to see clearly but yet they still look fitting. Maybe black would have been a better choice, but it's still nice.
This one will get worn daily.
The band is supple leather and is comfortable, and I hope it holds up over time. It might sacrifice longevity for comfort, but it is too new for me to be sure.
pros:
-overall quality
-proportions are just right
-value
-2 year warranty, plus bonus third year for . . . leaving amazon.com feedback: so hey folks here it is, and its good.
cons:
-the pictures do not depict the "Stuhrling Original" black lettering that is printed on the face of the watch. It is small and reasonably printed, but is off center to the left by a spacing of one half letter. disappointing and cheap flaw.
-you cant wear it inside out. the back is awesome!
-the outer ring that runs half way through the numbers and branches out to the case is cast aluminum and not machined. every other surface of the watch is of machine or stamped and polished finish. the casting has some flaws, no pitting but some inconsistency in surface finish that cheapen it a bit.
buy it unless you are rich and don't care about value purchases, but if you were that person you wouldn't be reading this, so buy it.

Super cool! - Brian Herman - Seattle, WA
This is a beautiful watch of high style and craftsmanship. I've only had it a week and get tons of complements on it, it's a real eye catcher. The blue hands are a nice touch, where silver or white, or even black would get lost in the detail of the watch, the blue really stands out without being gaudy. The automatic winding mechanism and all the machinework is beautifully exposed through both the crystal and the clear watch back.
There are 2 things that keep this from being a 5-star review. 1) the band isn't particularly comfortable. It's overly stiff and the loop that holds the loose end of the band rubs on my wrist at times. 2) the crystal has cristp black lettering that says "Stuhrling Original" but it's not perfectly centered on the 12, it looks like the crystal was put on just slightly rotated from center. It's barely noticeable, in fact I didn't spot it until I saw another person write the same thing in their review, but I can clearly see it now.
Failed within a few months - Vitalie Alexandru - Stamford, CT
Got the watch off amazon, it looked ok to begin with , but it failed to work within 7 months. I've had many watches in my life, but none, even the ones, were not of such poor quality. I checked out the Sturhling service center and unlike other companies, that stand behind their product, Sturhling wants the customer to pay them a flat rate of and pay for shipping back and forth , EVEN IF THE WATCH IS COVERED BY WARRANTY ! So you pay for their poor build quality, that's a sweet deal for them, no? It also takes 2 MONTHS !!! to get it fixed.
Overall , worst watch I've ever owned, worse than my .00 Timex.( who's 3 years old, working strong). Swiss quality my a**. BTW, the watch is not made is Switzerland, but somewhere in Asia. Shame on you Sturhling, you bunch of schemers. Would strongly argue against buying this watch and urge prospective buyers to look at other, more established ( and more reliable) brands.
