I only looked at the picture, didn't realize it was gold, somehow I thought it was grey. I wouldn't be too disappointed if it was a nice gold, but it's got a greenish tint to it that I don't like that much.

Other than the color, I like the belt. It's a good stretchiness, hold your pants up without constricting you. I like that you can use any part of the belt as a belt hole, rather than stretching out that one hole that's just a little too tight or worse, having to add new notches. I expect it to maintain it's quality longer than belts with typical belt holes and continue to work well if you gain or lose weight easily.
