I bought this for my grandson for Christmas.  He wanted a metal watch with a metal band but he is only 10 and none of the "Men's" watches would have fit his small wrist without taking a lot of links out.  At first I think he was a little disappointed in this watch but after wearing it to school and getting positive remarks from his friends he now loves the watch.  The nylon/Velcro band adjust small enough for his wrist. The dial is easy to read and can even light up for viewing at night.  I would buy again.
