I've joyfully owned this watch for 9+ years now and still love it.  After innumerable diving & snorkeling excursions, swimming pools and showers, it has never missed a beat.  Have enjoyed the depth meter.  It's been windsurfing, hang gliding, sailing, motorcycling and in sinks of dirty dishes and still looks modern, professional, rugged and up-to-date.  It's equally appropriate in the boardroom and beach.  It keeps accurate time, is easy to use and is most certainly durable!  I've changed bands a couple of times (the stock rubber band lasts a few years of hard use). Bands are easy to find.  The orange parts are a bit faded after many hundreds of hours in direct Caribbean sun.  Crystal will scratch some eventually with abuse, but it's surprisingly durable.  The SS case is also not prone to scratches.  I've gotten several more expensive watches in the interim (including Rolex) but have always quickly gone back to wearing this one full-time.  If I lost it, I'd get the same model!
