I got this watch right away soon after my purchase.  It is a very neat watch and I have to say that I love the pink indiglo.  I have owned timex before and haven't been disappointed.  My wrist is small (5.5") so I fasten it to the very first hole, but the strap guard seems strong enough and not in the way.  I have used it for a week or so and the strap is still pretty stiff, I hope it softens with time as another reviewer commented.  So far, it came in great condition and a latch that didn't let the battery run down.  If you like the outdoors yet like a feminine touch, this is for you.  I highly recommend it.
