Striking appearance by R. SELIG
This new offering from Armitron is priced on the high side in its line of resin banded watches but is worth the extra few dollars. Embodying the esthetic quality of **shigiri**, it is classed as a sport watch but could be worn for business. It is reminiscent of a $1500 Rado with its minimalist, square design and black face.



The digital hour/minute display is large, with somewhat smaller digits displaying seconds and date. This leaves little room for the day of the week display, which requires better than 20/20 eyes to make out. However, the location of this display advances with each day so it is not necessary to read the letters.



The real drawback is that the Reverse LCD is not high visibility and has a limited visibility angle, fading markedly with each degree of deflection. The slightly curved window is prone to reflections, also. At a cost in battery life, this is remedied by the very effective "electro-lite" illumination feature, having its own button, which actually makes the digits glow and starts to fade automatically within a second.
