You will forget you are wearing it if you are use to large heavy watches. My only disappointment is in it's possible durability? Maybe I had a faulty part or was wearing it too tightly, but within one week I lost one of the pins that holds the band on. I was only unloading boxes of groceries from my truck when I noticed it was about to fall inside my sleeve. Other than that no complaints. Night night time luminescence and even though it's the "Black Out" model the numbers are easily visible during the day. BTW this is my first Luminox which will replace my use of G-Shocks unless other reliability issues occur.
