I'm new to watch collecting; so, before this watch, I never saw one with a case diameter over 44mm. When I popped the box open on this watch, I was a bit taken aback. I mean, it was huge...very, very huge. Being the neophyte that I am, I tried wearing this watch to work...with-my-dress-clothes. Not only did I look like an idiot, but I felt like one too (the crown banged the back of my hand all day). After a full day of looking and feeling bad about purchasing this watch, I thought about reselling it. However, a G-Shock advertising changed my mind. Well, to make a long story short, the G-Shock advertising enabled me to see that my Russian Diver could not and should not be worn with dress clothes. So the next time I put it on I had on a pair of black jeans and a black v-neck. Naturally, the Russian Diver was a perfect fit, but I wasn't ready for all of the attention and compliments it attracted. So, if you're in need of a "dress-down" watch, get the Russian Diver and get noticed.
