This watch is absolutely GORGEOUS! Much better than what I expected. I bought it for myself as a Christmas gift and I am VERY satisfied. It is a little heavy, but not at all bulky. . . . but the weight was to be expected, being that the watch is ceramic.  I will say, that I did have an issue with changing the time/date. The peg was stuck and would not budge. I tried pulling it myself, asking my dad and asking my boyfriend, but after a few days, we gave up and decided to call AMAZON. As soon as I called AMAZON, they sent me a replacement as well as a shipping label for me to return the original watch. The replacement came very quickly and I have had NO problems since. I love this brand and am currently shopping for it in black (just not on the Akribos website; this watch retails for $850!). Thank you Amazon.com and Merry Christmas to me!
