This is a very light-weight and attractive watch that anyone would be proud to own.  The numerous functions (time, alarm, chrono, local time) are easy to understand with the well-written manual.  The dial is listed as a dark blue, but under most light it's practically black.  In very bright light or direct sunlight, the dial looks like the color on the Amazon listing.  The band appears to be of extremely high quality leather and the watch appears to come with a 5-year warranty.
