I do love watches, in our family it is important to always have one on with all the activities we do.  When I first saw this watch I was amazed at how beautiful it looked. It has a crisp look to it, not flashy but sleek. The band is a black leather strap, smooth and comfortable. The face is not cluttered , it has blue hands and large numbers. Believe me, at a certain age large numbers are a must and when you find a watch that has them in a classy way its a double plus. The watch is also water resistant and who doesn't love that.  How many times have you gone to wash your hands and your watch is still on? No problem with this one. Is it heavy? Not really, its sturdy, but not heavy. You can feel how well it is made.  All in all this is a very nice watch and one I believe you would be quite happy owning. Recommended.
