Power reserve issues
As others have commented, the power reserve indicator on the watch acts a little weird, and that's the main reason I give the watch just three stars, although it's nice and the rest is working. It's quite strange that so many watches in this batch appear to have the same exact issue. Maybe they spent too much time in the dark at a warehouse?
When I got it, the power reserve indicator was even below the red area and looked defective. The seconds hand was skipping, so I knew I had to give it some light. Using a powerful led lamp I got it to move to the lowest part of the red area after around 4 hours. That's when the seconds hand stopped skipping.
I've repeated the same process three other times and yesterday the indicator got to the middle. Then, around 30 seconds after taking the watch from underneath the led lamp, the indicator hand dropped to the lowest point in the third section, where it was before. I put it under the light for one more hour and got the indicator back up. But then, it dropped again seconds after taking it away.
So the capacitor or the power reserve indicator hand seem defective.
I still like the watch and the price was awesome, but this is a little disappointment. Anyway, since I'm not living in the US, I'll keep it like this. In the future, if it gets worse, I'll ask a repair shop about changing the capacitor or checking the watch altogether.
