This is a beautiful, high quality watch.  It is definitely large, both the face and band...which is very trendy right now.  It's on the heavy side, but that doesn't bother me. I had a local jeweller take out four links in the band (no charge) and now it fits perfectly. The clasp was a little tricky to figure out in the beginning, but now it's a breeze.  The hands on the face of the watch are gold colored (not black as it appears on one of the photos). The watch suits me as I'm 5'8" and can pull off this look very well.  I don't know if this watch would work for a petite woman, though.
