This is, by far, the BEST watch I have ever had.  Was a birthday gift from my sweetie pie in July of 2011.  I have not taken it off since (well, once or twice to clean it, but that's it).  I'm rough on things, and tend to buy things that are "sturdy" and this watch has taken every abuse and hasn't complained, even once.  I didn't want a watch that I would have to worry about - worry to remember to take it off before I did the dishes or before I took a shower or before I went swimming or before I went running or before I worked in the garden or before I did whatever else it is that I do in my life that is wet, dirty, and sweaty.  Or even worry that I still had on my grungy watch when I was dressed up and supposed to be "fancy".
No scratches on the crystal, keeps excellent time, and can be either casual or dressy.  This is the PERFECT watch!
