For me, the case was just as important as the watch I bought. This would be a case one would store there watch in when not wearing it. It was a gift and I was not going to hand it over to anyone in a case that was obviously worn out, discolored, the Edges were overly worn and it was stained. I could not believe they sent me such a beautiful watch in a nasty container/case.

Hopefully it was an honest mistake???? I returned the watch and went to Macy's and bought one. Paid a few dollars more but the case was very nice and I was proud to give it as a present.
