This watch offers the ability to change the nylon strap so you can customize the color to go with outfits, etc.  The colored straps aren't incredibly attractive and smell horrendously of chemicals.  The watch itself initially seemed to keep decently accurate time and offers the date in the display.  That has changed (see update below).

The watch case and the mineral face are both fine in design and seem decently machined.  However, what surprised me was the size of the watch.  It's the biggest watch I've ever had.  It's not too thick -- just large in diameter.  I wouldn't suggest this for guys with small wrists.

UPDATE (revised January 1, 2012):

After less than a month, the watch is not keeping time accurately.  Also, the date indicator is now out of whack (it skipped into foreign abbreviations -- MIE?) and, follwing the instructions in the manual, I cannot adjust the abbreviations.  Position 1 lets me change the numeric date (rotating clockwise) but not the abbreviations (supposedly changeable by rotating the knob counter-clockwise).  Position 2 changes the time only.  First impression in December was 4 stars for the price.  I've revised that down from four to two stars.  My suggestion is to avoid this watch and buy a better bargain brand (e.g., Seiko).
