Looks Expensive!
This watch looks expensive! Can you see the raised beveled top of the watch? Absolutely love it, now I will say it's a tab bit thin but I don't mind that.

Diseño increíble por el precio
El reloj es demasiado bonito u de una buena calidad tomando en cuenta el precio, lo único que no me gusto es el cristal que como se describe es tipo diamante desde ciertos ángulos impide ver la carátula del reloj pienso en llevarlo a un relojero a cambiar por un cristal plano, me gustaría comprarlo en otros colores tiene muchas variedades y todos lucen bonitos

Stylish for going out to a nice event, and comfortable
I ordered the CHEETAH Two-Tone Watch for Men for when I go out to nice places, such as to church. It is very attractive and mostly easy to read. It is difficult to identify the hands in some low to mid lighting because the face isn't flat and will catch a glare. The included tool worked well to remove some of the links to fit my wrist. When I first put it on I didn't like the feel, mainly because I hadn't made it as loose as another nice watch that I use and it felt different. I ended up wearing it for 3 days straight, including to bed and it was comfortable enough that I noticed it less than my other watch. Now that I'm used to the different feel I'm totally loving this watch!

Best watch!
Bought this for my husband. He gets so many compliments on it! It looks expensive and it’s well made! Only thing is he said some times the date is behind a bit. Other than that it’s very nice!
