I love the watch BUT. I specifically purchased it because the case diameter indicated it was 36mm - great! HOWEVER, the band is very stiff & unwielding on the sides and because I have a small wrist I cannot wear it as it juts out too far on my wrist. Overall, it is a very nice looking watch, but don't purchase if you have a small wrist, otherwise I think it is a great buy - gift for my father now.
