I bought this watch as a gift to myself while on a family cruise in the Caribbean. It ran me about $100 during one of the on-board shopping days. It is a GREAT watch that get LOTS of compliments and attention. It is a very versatile watch that can be worn in pretty much any occasion. With jeans, khaki's at work etc. The watch wears like a brick and is fairly large and that's okay for me as I have 8.75" wrists. I have had this watch for about a year and the synthetic band has seen better days but I wear it often. I'm hoping that I can find a metal replacement band. The bezel is fixed and it is only water resistant to 100m so it is not a true dive watch but I have an "Orange Monster" for that. Overall, I would highly recommend it!!
