More substantial on the wrist than the steel version I have tried on. Its my daily wear at work. A joy to look at, useful, reliable, formal on a dark strap and casual on a brown. Luxurious but not flashy or too attention grabbing. I love this watch and hope to grow old with it. I have dozens of other ones but this has taken up most my attention lately. Maybe it wont hold up in value as much as the steel versions especially the black one because of fewer available but I don’t care much, I feel. I am happy with this. Maybe a 3 or 4 watch collection with this would be a blessing. ..or maybe not lol
