Really like the watch though it took some getting used to. The watch band mechanical clasp was a surprise--it looks like leather-partially leather and partially metal. Once I figured out both sides of the band mechanism unclasp it was much easier to slide my hand through and than re-clasp. I have a small wrist and the band fits perfectly. I chose this watch because it seemed like it would be easy to read without having to use my reading glasses-it is very easy to read. I own 2 Omega's, a Tag Huer, and a Wenger--the Wenger is for everyday outdoor activities--this watch replaces the Wenger. Seriously considered another Swiss Army Watch but it seemed all the Chrono's had rubber bands and all seemed bigger in diameter and a bit harder to see the hands/numbers. I wear this watch every day and am happy with it.
