I have several watches including Breitling, Raymond Weil, Luminox and my every day (work) Timex. This is very masculine, cool looking watch and knew I had to add it to my collection when I first saw it. It has some weight to it, but not uncomfortable-I am not a heavy or large frame guy (5'8" 160 lbs). I liked the black face with the yellow hand and it was priced very well on Amazon (where I first viewed). However, since I was going on vacation to Aruba in a few months I waited, figuring I would get a good, no-tax deal there. I couldn't find the black face I was looking for but either way, the ones which were available were $400 +/-. I ordered from Amazon as soon as I got back. I've had it now for 3 months. It keeps excellant time, looks great and I feel good when I wear it- I have no regrets.
