The dial is easy to read at a glance, and the stretchy band is comfortable. When I wash my hands, I can push the band up my arm to get it out of the way. It also doesn't trap water underneath to irritate my skin. I clean the entire watch and band often with an alcohol wipe, so I feel confident I'm not wearing a petrie dish. There is some distortion of the face when viewed from the side, so it won't pass for high-end, but it's perfect for work. I also have it in black.
