Before buying any La Mer watch, you should definitely go to their website. They have all the same watches there, but the pictures are a little higher quality. This watch is excellent - a very fine display of craftsmanship. Since it is a wrap around, I was worried about it being too wide (I have never worn a wrap around before, and this is my first La Mer). It fits perfectly. The leather is so soft and supple. I have only worn mine two days and I feel like the leather is molding to my wrist and becoming a part of my body. The gray in the photo is exactly as I thought it would be. I am not at all disappointed with the snake skin print. This watch is definitely worth the price. I hope to purchase more La Mer watches in the future.
