What is style for you? What is masculine to you? This watch does not scream "LOOK AT ME!", but it has great function and elegant, minimalist style. It is super comfortable; the lugs are curved to the level of the case back and it has a small diameter for a man's watch. The beveled case and thin profile lets your cuffs slip right over. If you wear an extra long band you may have to replace the bracelet. With my genetics, physical training, and history of physical labor I could not fit the original band so I got a 16mm leather strap for mine. Just use a pin tool remove the pins from the lugs, and replace with spring bars and any 16 mm strap. (BTW if anybody has linksfor this bracelet to sell (low cost please) please post a comment and I'll post a comment with my e-mail in it)

To me, real style is functional, simple, and clean, not elaborate. Hate to quote Polonious but: "Rich, not gaudy" The only thing that could make me like this watch more is if it was even thinner, had no date window, and maybe if it had a sapphire crystal. (On the date window: why wear out the crown and stem with monthly adjustments; keep it simple! If you are so messed up that you do not know the day and date, you probably have time to pull out the cell phone.)  This watch will catch the eye at times; the cut hour markers subtly shine and sparkle just a bit with movement.  The fatuous will not fawn over it like a Rolex, but the sophisticated might notice it's simply elegant.

If you think style means a showy display of a foolish amount of money or that being a real man means having something big and heavy on your wrist to imply that you are physically strong (more likely completely insensitive) this is not your watch.  If you do not know the difference between elaborate and elegant this might not be your watch. For me, this could be the ultimate watch: fantastic comfort, great value, elegant style approaching a Movado museum with far superior function, and 10-20 year battery life.
