I lile the band but have found the pins are either too short or too weak. The watch has come apart three times and fell off. With the price of the watch, that is a little disconcerting. I will be putting that watch back on the nylon web asap. As it turns out, I did not get the bands switched out in time and this built to rigid military standards fell off someplace on the golf course during a swing. God forbid I had to go hands on with someone, use a axe or hammer. For the money I paid for this watch, I could have bought five timex expeditions that I know for a fact are more dependable. Very disappointed and will not.recommend Luminox to anyone.
