I now wear this watch everyday (I bought it as a backup for another solar watch).  It always works and is accurate. Unlike other expansion bands that I have had this one stays in place and does not pull the skin or irritate my arm. The face of the watch is easy to read and feminine.  The gold/silver colors are quietly attractive.  Nothing flashy.  My other solar watch has a leather strap which frequently wears through and must be replaced.  Delighted.
