Agonized for a while about getting this watch. The Internet reviews were unanimously favorable. My first impression was disapponting. I had prepared myself for the watch to be small; I had not really correctly anticipated how small it would be. (Its significantly smaller than the SARB065 Cocktail Time, and the videos don't seem to convey this effectively.) No ifs, ands or buts  this watch is small. Frankly, if Id seen it in a store I probably would have passed on it for that reason.

In addition, I had some trouble finding the right strap. I went through several alternatives before settling on one. Black lizard skin and black calfskin didn't seem to do the trick. Both made the watch seem like it belonged to a funeral director. A couple of other alternatives I tried also didn't seem to create the right look.

Now that Ive got it on a red crocodile print strap, the watch is really growing on me. Its like a little onyx jewel on your wrist.
