I like a watch that has a clean look. Time, day, and date are all that I use on a regular basis, so I really don't need a compass, altimeter, or a display of the moon phases. I have a compass and an altimeter, and I can see the moon at night. And I have a separate stopwatch. What I want for everyday use is a good-looking watch that's easy to read, keeps good time, and can stand up to regular wear and tear. This watch meets or exceeds my desires. It's quite attractive, gives me what I want clearly, and keeps excellent time. As to specific aspects:Size - As a few reviewers have noted, it's fairly large, but not obnoxiously so. I don't have a large wrist, and it fits me just fine.Band - Some have complained that the band they got wasn't 22mm, but mine is, and I find it to be of good quality and attractive. I did get a second band for some variety, but this one is quite good.Day and date - White letters and numbers against a black background require a closer look, but makes the watch face more consistent in color. It's a price I'm willing to pay; I usually know whether it's Tuesday or Wednesday, and don't need the date all that often.Construction and durability - It's made with high-end materials, so I expect that it will hold up over time, without a lot of scratches etc. So far, it still looks brand new. I haven't worn it while doing engine repair, but for everyday use it hasn't disappointed.Overall, it's not a dress watch, but it is a watch that I'll happily wear anywhere else.
