When first taken out of box, like something that came out of gumball machine, but after wearing it, I've come to like it. It is small, it's thin, and that's what I was looking for. It kinda looks like a high tech, low tech watch, if that makes any sense, anyway that's how I see it. For $10.00 I'm happy with it, Casio been around a long time, surly they know what they are doing.......right?
