i bought this as a replacement watch for my husband without consulting him so i didn't know whether he would like it or not.  not only does he like it, he gets complimented on it all the time.  grocery clerks, waiters and waitresses, friends, grandsons - pretty much anyone who happens to nice it comments on how stylish it is.  and having both gold and silver on it, he can wear this with either silver belt buckles or gold belt buckles.  what a win/win!
