The band was a bit snug for me, so I swapped it out with another similar band that I had on hand from many years ago that fit perfectly. I like a loose band, and because I'm back on Prednisone again I have some swelling of my extremities, which was the likely reason it fit snugly. My wife and daughter both loved the way the watch looked on me. (they tend to be pretty critical when it comes to this kind of stuff.)

I have not worn a watch since I retired, just didn't think I needed one. But, I find myself looking at a blank wrist all the time and wondering what time it is. I guess old habits die hard. wink

Merry Christmas, Everyone,

Gary cool

A Few years ago my wife got me for Christmas a “circle of fifths” watch.

OK. I finally got my watch. But now, How do I get it to run? Is is self wind or battery operated? I love the look and all but can't figure out how to make it work

How ironic, a MUSICIAN'S watch that can't keep time smile smile.

There is a little, plastic tab that is under the knob on the side. Remove it and it activates the battery, set the time and you're ready to go.

Merry Christmas!


Steve,

Are there any references on your watch or packaging that say the Circle of 5ths watch was from The Chromatic Watch Company?

Regards,

Jerryghr
