This is a very pretty watch. It comes with two interchangeable bands (one rubber, one metal). I bought this watch to wear at work, as I have a bit of a "dirty job," and watches don't seem to hold up for very long. I hoped that a watch with a rubber wristband might fare a bit better than my usual metal-bracelet watches. I purchased the item specifically because it was listed as "water resistant to 33 feet." I am constantly washing my hands at work, so a watch that can stand up to regular splashings is essential. I wore the watch for one day, and just washing my hands and getting the watch slightly wet caused moisture to collect inside the case. By the end of the day, the watch had stopped working. I purchased a different watch and put this one aside, figuring that my nieces could use it for playing dress-up. I happened to glance at it a couple of weeks later, and noticed that it had dried out and started working again. I do like the look of the watch and the versatility of the interchangeable bands, but the watch that I received is absolutely not water resistant.
