Just the watch for every day when unexpected projects can bump, scrape, or otherwise damage the more "delicate" dress watch. It certainly shows more expensively than its price tag and its ability to keep accurate time isn't outdone by even the most expensive watches. The face is very readable - I like the full set of numerals and the date window. The expansion band is very comfortable and it makes taking the watch on and off quick and easy. It would also be nice to have a day function as well, but at this price point - NO complaints! Highly recommended.
