It's hard to find a metal watch without an elastic strap. I'm quite an active and busy person, so I needed something that looked nicely dressed but could stand up to the rigors of everyday life (both gardening and housework and home renovation projects etc. You get the point โ REAL LIFE.) The little divisions on the clock glow in the dark, it has a small window that shows the date (great during a pandemic when the days are merging!), and it can fit up to a 7 1/2 inch wrist circumference comfortably (my wrist is a bit smaller, but I like to wear them a little looser.) The bracelet snaps onto a hinge, perfect if you just want to put it on yourself. It's stainless steel so it doesn't lose its patina I wear them all the time when I'm not showering and they still look brand new. It's hard to find a metal watch that is practical and not too bulky and after searching for DAYS I finally found this one - well worth the search.
