Sturdy watch

Nice watch - I've owned mine for 5 years and it is still going strong. It's nothing fancy and it doesn't call attention to itself, but it's a classy watch that just keeps on ticking. Only had to change the battery once so far (2 yrs ago). It is water-"proof" for light dunks in the shower/river/pool, but I wouldn't wear mine in the ocean or go diving with it - I wore it in a river in the amazon (no joke) and aside from some light fogging on the face that went away after an hour, it was fine.

The band is sturdy too, but you'll have to take it to a jeweler to get segments removed/added if it doesn't fit you right out of the box. Some light scratches on the band are all that's to show from 5 years of every-day wear. I have the black face with aluminum band, and it's very easy to read in a hurry. No scratches on the face yet. Can't beat it for the price.
