Takeaway: Handsome timepiece, easy to set and alter band size, accurate time keeping.

This watch comes in a simple black giftbox. The watch is a Diver's style watch which has a metal clasp band that can accommodate wrists from 6.5" - 9.5" in circumference via 8 removable links. The watch face is 1.5" in diameter and has a metallic blue background with different shapes representing the numbers. This watch has a screw-down crown and to unlock it, scroll the crown towards you until it pops out. Then you can pull the crown out all the way to position 2 to change the time. Pay attention to when the date changes as this will signal to you when the time has passed midnight rather than 12 noon. Pushing the crown in slightly puts it in position 1 which allows you to change the date which is behind a magnified portion of the glass. To lock the crown, press it in and turn it away from you until it cannot be tightened anymore. In order to preserve the waterproof properties of the watch, the crown must be fully closed.

There is a Diver's Bezel around the face which rotates counter clockwise. This will help you determine how many minutes you've been underwater. The watch is rated to be water resistant to a depth of 330 ft which is more than enough for a free dive or casual diver, though I haven't verified this claim. The watch clasp is easy to operate, but there's no divers extension on the clasp to expand and accommodate a wet suit. The band was a bit large for me so I took out some links. The watch doesn't come with a link removal tool, so if you don't have one, take the watch to a jeweler who can remove the links for you. If you're taking the links out yourself, on the bottom of the removable links there are arrows that indicate the direction in which you should push the pins out. After removing 3 links from each side, the watch fits much better. The watch is very handsome and the watch face isn't too large for my wrist which is narrow. It's a great casual watch and also goes well with business attire.
