This watch is beautiful, keeps excellent time, and I LOVE the changeable wristbands in my favorite neutral colors. I got this thinking my daughters and I could wear it, but alas, I did not imagine the face would be quite so large! We are kind of a small person family (husband is about 5'7, I'm 5'5, oldest daughter(16) is only 5'1). So, for my husband to wear this watch (he is quite slim, as we all are) would be rather silly, since big things on small people only make small people look smaller. That being said, despite the almost two inch wide face, this is a sturdy and very nice looking watch. Easy to read the time. This would make a nice gift for someone (someone who is tall and not too skinny!). That being said, it will still come in handy to have around.

As for the watch bands, I like them. Leather bands tend to rot if you are wearing them during outdoor activity, and this rugged watch looks made to be worn on a hike or bike ride.
