I bought this watch to wear on a vacation in Mexico, rather than my more expensive usual watch. It has clean, simple lines and the time is very easy to see, even if you've had a margarita or two. As other reviewers commented, the "sparkle" is very difficult to see...I'd say this is more of an glossy white than a sparkly white.  But it looked good--not too large for my wrist and not too small to see.
