Great watch! Altivo finally made a beauty!
I bought a stainless steel Limted Edition Concealed Watch by Altivo a few months back but I had great problems with the fascia sticking. It was heard to pull up and sometimes stuck altogether. I really hated that as the watch looked fantastic and always got people's attention. I was a bit reticent about buying another one given the problems with the first one but couldn't resist the cool colours of this one.
When I got the watch, the first thing I tried was the action of the facia. This time round it was smooth-as. 5/5 so far. The next was testing for comfort and feel. Again 5/5. Lastly, it was all about the look. Again, 5/5. The time is easy to set (although instructions were provided, it didn't take much to work it out). Functionality and ease of use then are 5/5. Finally, the packaging of the Altivo watches is so much better than the crappy ones you normally get with common name brands. The boxes are worth collecting as they come in different colours and patterns. Again, for effort by Altivo, I rate the packaging 5/5.
This watch is everything that you want. It will be a watch that could easily be worn well into the 25th century. Buy one while they are still around. You won't be disappointed.

Lots of attention - but not well designed
I've had this watch for a few weeks now. Admitedly, it is my favourite watch as it looks great and is a very easy watch to use. The strap is just the right size and it fits well under long-sleeved business shirts. All said though, the watch has a few flawes. The most notable flaw is the way that the cover is designed. Whilst it may look cool in the brochure, it does not state how difficult it is to get open sometimes. I haven't worked out qhat is the easiest way, but I would have thought that the small hole that shows the date (or month if you choose to set it that way) is used to insert the tip of your finger in it and slide it up. I tried this at the start and it seemed to work. However, just like peeling pistachio nuts, you soon find that you have taken off a good piece of skin on the tip of your finger. So, I tried pushing it up from the bottom left of the fascia. This worked sometimes if you push down hard on it, but not all the time. Most times the above two processes didn't work at all so I couldn't read the watch. I finally worked out that a desperate way to get the watch open is to grab the sides and wriggle it open. This is a bit finnicky and it doesn't look as showy when you are doing this in front of people. All up, I'd say it was a great looking watch, but not the best functional watch I know.
