This watch is definitely nice.  But it is a shiny black which the stock photo does not make apparent.  And because it is shiny, it looks more graphite than black, IMHO.  Nevertheless I will keep the watch because it is a rather nice watch.  The case is small but I have a small wrist so it actually looks alright on me.  The ceramic is rather soft and brittle though.  I took the watch to a jeweler for them to resize and they are the ones that told me the watch was "fragile" in their opinion.  I don't have any other ceramic watches so I have no basis of comparison.
