This watch is stunningly beautiful in color as well as detail but it is very bulky on my wrist.  I have worn it a few times when I won't be doing a lot of activity involving my hands and it has not been a problem but I am always conscious of the extra weight.  I'm sure I will adjust to it in time, I just wish I could have this same watch about half the size because I do love the look of it.  It runs fine but, as others have mentioned, it keeps time the best when worn daily.
