This is a great looking watch; the photos don't fully do it justice. It has a clean, simple style but is not plain by any means. The build quality seems very good - solid and durable (at least that's how it seems - time will tell). Very readable. The bezel looks like it should rotate, but it does not. A rotating bezel would have been a more authentic choice for this type of watch, but it's not a deal-breaker.

The silicone band is one of the most comfortable I've ever worn. It's thick and soft, and flexes easily. The perforations in the side should help your skin breathe on warm days. The case itself has a brushed finish on the upper surface, and polished on the sides. It's a subtle difference, but it works.

There is lume on the hour markings as well as the hour and minute hand. No lume on the dot that appears on the second hand (surprisingly). Unfortunately, the quality of the lume is rather poor. Even fully charged with UV light, it's quite dim. Probably good enough to read in pitch black, but not so good for low light conditions. Just as a point of comparison (completely subjective), I would say my&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Seiko-Men-s-SKX007K-Diver-s-Automatic-Watch/dp/B000B5MI3Q/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Seiko Men's SKX007K Diver's Automatic Watch</a>&nbsp;is about 10x brighter in the dark than this watch.

It was hard to get meaningful figures on the dimensions of the watch before buying, so I'll share my measurements here in case others are interested. Width is 43 mm excluding the crown or 47 mm including the crown. Total lug-to-lug height about 50 mm. The lug width (band size) is 22 mm. (All these measurements should be within 1 mm of the actual -- I'm just measuring with a ruler here).

Bottom line: distinctive watch, wears well, and a good value. If you like the looks, you will most likely be happy with this watch for everyday wear.
