Upon his 1829 arrival in Granada, Spain, American author Washington Irving was immediately charmed by the city's beauty and picturesque qualities. While researching a book on the conquest of Granada, he gained access to the Alhambra Palace, which had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect. Irving became a guest at the ancient fortress, where he found himself in the company of several colorful inhabitants. During his sojourn, the writer became increasingly enamored of the grand palace and its wealth of history and folklore.The result is this captivating collection of essays, sketches, and tales. As Irving notes in his Preface, "It was my endeavor scrupulously to depict its half Spanish, half Oriental character; its mixture of the heroic, the poetic, and the grotesque; to revive the traces of grace and beauty fast fading from its walls; to record the regal and chivalrous traditions concerning those who once trod its courts; and the whimsical and superstitious legends of the motley race now burrowing among its ruins." A must-read for modern-day visitors to the Alhambra, this edition presents a fascinating selection of Irving's observations and stories.

Hard to set day/date.
Color: A-Black
Watch very professional looking and appears to be well made. Everything about this watch is what I have been looking for at a reasonable price. The only issue I have is how to set the watches features, time, date, and day. The instructions are very clear and well written, to a point. That point being the instructions say to move the "crystal" to the first notch, to adjust the day/date, and the second notch for to set the time. What the instructions fail to mention is the day/date adjustment must be turned a full 24 hours to the next day or date settlings. Also, trying to hit just the second notch is almost impossible as the is no distinct way of knowing if you are in it or not,

Great watch ! Large face and hands makes it easy to read,
Backface glows in dark if enough light is exposed to it.
Showered a few times, no problem. Will hit the waves later this week.
Update on that later.
Very happy with purchase and seller. Can recommend.

Good price
Color: A-Green Luminous
I bought a return. It was 5 bucks cheaper.
It looks nice and wears well.
I like the color and material.
I did have a little issue with setting the date. The day is in English and Chinese. That's a first, lol. It's usually in English and Spanish.
It would be a nice gift for a youngster to learn military time.
