I bought this watch because it met all the requirements I was looking for in a great watch for Nursing school.. (1) the color option - I got purple because it matches our uniforms for my school, but was excited to see it also came in pink, black, etc.  2) it had a second hand - which for Nursing is essential (3) it displays the military time equivalent - we have to use military time at my school for noting time - which is not hard, but this watch takes the thinking out of it for you. (4) durability - I love that the band material (sturdy, bendable, gel-like) which holds up well with repeated hand washing AND is easy to clean, sanitize.  Overall, love this watch and plan to buy other colors as needed (i.e., when I get to wear other color uniforms and need a watch to match).
