5.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly beautiful inexpensive dress watch, September 9, 2008

This is one of two Lucien Piccard steel-band dress watches that I purchased after graduating from law school to wear in the office and in court. I hesitated with this watch because of the description of the color of the face (lemon chiffon?). The quality of the crystal (sapphire, not chrystal), the band (two-tone stainless steel), the movement (Swiss, not Chinese or cheap quartz), and the price ($99...are you kidding me!) won me over. Then the watch arrived. The face has an extremely subtle yellow face (I'm a guy...I don't have a clue what "lemon chiffon" is) that is textured somewhat like fancy resume paper, decent sized diamond accents at the five-minute marks, simple yet elegant gold hands, and a sturdy-feeling two-tone stainless steel band (can be worn with silver and gold cuff links). The big surprise with this watch is how much bigger the face appears to be relative to its listing (37 mm). For me--a big guy with big hands and wrists--this was a welcome surprise.

This is a nice piece for the price. I also looked at the LP chronographs but they are advertised as japanese-quartz movement and I felt I'd get longer life from swiss movement. Also the LP chronographs I saw listed the crystal as "mineral" which as far as I can tell means glass. This watch lists the crystal as sapphire, and at the price I would assume it is mineral glass covered in a layer of sapphire. That's OK with me, as it should be just as scratch proof. I was worried the diamonds in the face might be a little too flashy for me, but they are quite small and don't make a big show. It's a really nice looking watch.

I've had this watch now for over a year and have had no problems with it whatsoever. The thing that impressed me the most is the heft. Normally when you buy a watch at this price the band is some sort of flimsy aluminum that dings easily. But even with the way that I rough up my watches, this one has only minor scratches on the band and the face is spotless.

Great value for the price!
