I love this Seiko watch! Had been looking at it in a retail store for about 2 years for $265; sometimes 25% off, and couldn't bring myself to spend that much. I recently bought it at Amazon for $80!! It is the real deal. I have a very small wrist and wanted a thinner watch. It is beautiful. Like others said, you can wear it with jeans and then it looks dressy, too. I would recommend this watch to anyone desiring a daintier style, but don't count on reading it without your reading glasses if you have to wear them! Lol
