OUTSTANDING

Hamilton Pulsomatic Men's Automatic Watch H52545339
Hamilton Pulsomatic Men's Automatic Watch H52545339

Pros: outstanding retro design melded with modern day technology self adjusts to different time zones conversation piece

Cons: can't read in the dark

Overall Review: I bought this watch as a gift from Price Loco. They were an awesome dealer and communicated with me on a personal level and insured that I received the watch in time to give as a gift on a certain day. The receiver of the gift absolutely loved the watch. He commented almost for two weeks straight on how happy he is with the watch's look and was beyond shocked for the entire trip that he actually had it on his wrist. He is a watch collector and said the watch is wonderful and state of the art. My concern was that you cannot read the dial in the dark, but he loves it anyway. It automatically adjusted itself when we entered a different time zone. If you loved the original Pulsar watch then this is a must. Many many jewelry shop owners commented on his watch while we were on vacation. the sides of the watch are very art deco'ish and very unique. It's a large watch but looks awesome on. the price through Price Loco was awesome and I will do business with them again.

Pros: Drive is faster than a normal drive. No heat.

Cons: Ok first let me say this was a system build for a customer. Mobo: BIOSTAR TA990FXE AM3+ AMD 990FX SATA 6Gb/s ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS, AMD FX-8350 Vishera 4.0GHz, EVGA SuperClocked 02G-P4-2662-KR GeForce GTX 660 2GB 192-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0, AVEXIR Core Series 16GB Kit (4 x 4GB) Quad Channel 240-pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2000. The system is a smoker! Fresh windows 7 ultimate 64bit with AHCI enabled. However even after calling Tech support, uninstalling drivers, trying MS base drivers, cloning the drive, running Partition magic and wiping the drive , then replacing the data again I still only get a dismal 251mb/s on write and 284mb/s on read, which is a far cry from the 599mb/s advertised

Overall Review: I was told by the Tech that this drive performs better on an Intel system. I wish I had known that BEFORE. Its still fast with Windows Index topping out at a solid 7.8 but I feel cheated that this drive is so expensive and its not giving the full performance as it was advertised.
