I bought this watch based on price and aesthetic. I recieved the watch today and I am more than pleased with the quality. The crystal is domed, and the watch itself has good weight to it and does not feel cheap at all. The wristband is also of higher quality than expected and the color works well with the style of the watch. VERY NICE WATCH! May buy another one with a different color scheme.Wavered between 4-5 stars, due to luminous hands/face fading to dark in just 15 minutes or so. But the quality is so high everywhere else, that I have given 5 stars.Beautiful retro style clear and simple face, domed crystal, quietest tick of any quartz watch I own, heavy case and thick leather band exude a high end feel, second hand lines up well with minute marks. Great value for a day to day timepiece.The watch outside case diameter is 44mm. I have smallish wrists, so no bigger for me!Keeping perfect time thus far...Yes, I would recommend.- update: Now with steady wear and sun exposure, the luminous hands last deep into the night. Numbers still fade to black rather quickly. Keeping time perfectly...
