I was looking for an everyday watch that would look good and last.  I can't speak to the lasting since I've only owned it for a week, but I am very happy with the look.  It looks good enough that I might not bother to put on another watch unless the occasion is very dressy.  Even my husband commented on how nice it looks and he doesn't usually pay attention to those things.
I have a small wrist and I was concerned that I wouldn't be able to get it tight enough or that the remaining strap end would be so long that it would look silly.  Neither of those worries came true.
I expect to be happy with this watch for a long time.
