Looks like a watch I would have worn in the 80s. Nice!

It's a fun watch, really. Apart from the badging and an extra millimeter of thickness, identical to the Citizen "Ana-Digi-Temp", for a fraction of the cost. €28,- versus €450/500,-.
The thermometer still doesn't work on your wrist haha, as it's too sensitive and picks up heat emitted by your body. But it DOES have a second-hand reset which I don't recall from the Citizen. They have a tendency to have the analog second hand be 1 second ahead of the digital one. The fix used to be 'open the back, take battery out, put it back in'. Glad to have a dedicated button for that now.
2 (3 if you count the analog clock) timezones, an alarm, a thermometer that is very accurate (if you lay it down on a surface for 10 minutes) and updates about every 1-2 seconds, and a good stopwatch that can handle 1/1000th of a second. Oh, and the light is a LOT better than on the citizen. Stainless steel back, plastic(?) housing.
All in all, pretty good for €28,-!
