The watch looks great and the strap is the same quality and texture as most fitness watches. What disappointed me was the green (olive) color, not at all like olive (or a nice color in the photo). It looks more like anthracite or slate gray. I took it to every nearby traffic light and asked a few family members, still grey/dark grey. I didn't remove the clock enable tab so I can't tell how it works. However, when I checked to see if anyone else had an issue with the olive color, I saw a number of complaints about the loud ticking. If that's true then it wouldn't have worked for us as I bought my daughter a watch to test out. I think her test roommates may have been unhappy. However, due to a color issue, I will be returning. If I had known that, I would have preferred black. By the way, the white face didn't seem that bright - it was a bit boring, IMHO.
