If you like big blocky cuff snatching showy watches then this watch isn't for you. Not that it disappears on your wrist, it doesnt. The white face with the delicate Roman numerals make it stand out just fine and is easy to read. The band compliments the watch and the fact that it has a sapphire crystal is comforting to me because Im a bit clumsy. If you have a little bit of snob in you this is a watch with as one my friends likes to say breeding. I like it and finding it on Amazon for reasonable price was a bonus.
