I really like the appearance of the face and the beautiful band on this watch. It is smaller than some of the huge faces that overpower the wrist. It looks like a Rolex which is much more expensive. The downside is the opening system is really hard to operate and takes a lot of upward pressure to open the band and to close it fully. If there is some easy way, it is not explained with the packaging. I have actually cut myself on the sharp edges of the metal band in opening it.
