Thank you, and in answer to your questions...
Firstly, I was asked what the watch looked like in the dark. This is the picture, hopefully showing the three luminescent parts of the hands...
Secondly, I was asked what activities I have been doing in the 'sports watch for the Reverso line'. At the moment I have been building up my fitness and I am using the chronograph to time various activities such as jogging and trampolining, however I have avoided cycling as I am concerned about the vibrations and the risk of falling off.
Thanks for all the encouragement. I have really enjoyed wearing the watch, and have barely ever taken it off in the first week. I was also surprised by liking wearing it on the metal bracelet, however soon I will be able to wear it on a rubber strap I hope.
