Bought this as a graduation gift for my son-in-law, who just earned his Green Beret (U.S. Army Special Forces).  I am so proud of him for his patriotism, integrity, and desire to serve our country.  I think he was very pleased with the watch.  It is even more attractive in person than the picture suggests. Very rich looking and handsome.  Weighty enough to give it importance and prominence on the wrist, but not so heavy as to be uncomfortable.

 I also want to profusely thank the gentleman at Amazon who expedited the exchange of the watch.  The original watch arrived in a damaged box and was not suitable to be given as a gift for such an important occasion. Since I had to travel to Ft. Bragg just 2 days after the first watch arrived, I was in a bit of a panic.  (I had never received a damaged item from Amazon and have made dozens and dozens of purchases). I was able to reach a live person in customer service, who overnighted another watch, allowing me to return the one with the damaged box later.

As you finish reading this review, please say a quick prayer for EBP, that he remain safe throughout his deployment.  Thanks., and I'll pray for all who leave the one word comment "pray".
