Not entirely sure how there can be negative reviews of this watch, it has been a loyal watch to me for many years. The first literally lasted 3 years and wore it every day, sometimes even in the shower! It held up great until the resin strap broke so I bought another one here at Revain and this one did the job perfectly - it's been working for a year and a half now. People may not have read the description, but this is a small, thin, simple watch with a rubber strap. I personally like the resin strap very much - very comfortable, especially in the heat. I have no complaints, I really like this watch and I will always carry it as my most important everyday watch! :)
