Finally a watch that I can just slip on, that is light weight and is inexpensive. First of all, the watch flashes between the date and the time, which is a little hard to get used to. Plus, it wasn't exactly easy to set the date and time. The buttons to change it are on the back of the watch and you need a sharp point to get to them. Despite the fact that they are hard to press, a couple of times I looked down to find that it somehow switched itself to "set" mode and I had to reset it. Even with all that, I was so happy with how easy it was to pull on and off and how lightweight it is that I was willing to accept the relatively minor flaws. However, in the third week of wearing it (on a daily basis), one of the screws holding the time mechanism to the band popped off and now the mechanism pops out of the band. I haven't contacted the company yet, but I don't know if I'd want another one if it can't withstand daily wear.

The first watch I purchased did not work well, it ran fast and the date did not display. I returned it to Amazon and I received a replacement within a few days. The new watch works very well, it's keeping time and the date displays. The date and time are displayed interchangeably/flashing between the two. The watch is streamline, water proof, and comfortable to wear. The only "con" about it is that to adjust the date and time you have to press a couple of tiny buttons on the back side of the face and a tool is not provided to do this. The buttons are very very small. Aside from that, I'm enjoying the watch and use it almost daily.

This is just the watch I need. Very understated in this small black version. I like to wear multiple bracelets, a thin leather strand wrap-around, colored string, etc... on one wrist This blends into the cacophony seamlessly. Plus it tells you only the hour and minute - no more, no less. Enough other things in the world are telling me the fraction of a second, day, date, temperature, my heart rate. I just need the time; simple said and done. Ask yourself if you really need a big watch face looking back at you. I LOVE this watch. Excellent design. And as for longevity, I hope it lasts, there's not much to break, but for $17, really.....
