This watch is huge and finally I can read the time without my reading glasses.  The date is a little small but that's expected.  The watch is almost a half-inch thick and catches on my sleeves, but who cares.  I am a female but I love big watches and this band still fits me, using the last available hole, and I have fairly small wrists.  It's not really very luminous but just ok and supposedly I can wear it swimming.  Of course I paid a great price on Amazon so I'm not sure if it will live up to it's regular price, as I've only had it a few weeks.
