Good watch, not incredibly durable for everyday use.
Color: silver/brown
A nice watch, the date feature and the glow in the dark were quite helpful. It lasted be about 6 months of regular use. Unfortunately it stopped keeping time (intermittent freezing) and the second hand fell off, I'm kinda disappointed with its durability. Unsure of the initial cause, I guess I hit something with my wrist.

Really classy watch!
Color: Brown/Stainless Steel/White, Color: Brown/Stainless Steel/White
Really looking watch, it looks expensive! It gives more confidence when wearing outfits. It's simple to look at, very minimalist, but it shows the date and day. I really like the roman numerals too!
