I've had this watch for nearly a month now. It's beautiful, just like the picture. It's my first Invicta watch so I'm not sure how well the gold will hold up. I've been disappointed in the past with other brands that lost the gold color within the first month. However, so far this is looking good. (I guess time will tell.) I did have to take it to my jeweler to have some links removed as the band was quite long, but now it fits comfortably.
