I had to stop wearing wrist watches several years ago when I developed a sensitivity to the metal and my wrist was continually raw. I have worn a succession of pendant watches since then, and I purchased this one to replace the last one after it died. I love the style and the upside-down face. My only complaint is the cover. I would like the watch better without it. I like to be able to glance down and see the time without flipping the cover open. I can get the general idea by looking through the little window, but I'd rather see the whole face. I have received several compliments on it though, so I think it's must be pretty attractive. Normally it's the only jewelry I wear.
