I love this watch! As a woman, I was glad that it doesn't seem masculine or too large. I'm pretty average size and the strap fits me on the third smallest notch. The only issue with that is the excess strap sometimes slips out of the little band or arches away from my arm where it could catch on things, but that hasn't been a big problem. (Better than another watch I had where the little band to hold the excess strap broke.)This watch is easy to read, and even though it's a very different light feature than the green and black "indiglo" I'm used to, I actually really like the light feature. It shines a yellow light from the left side, so it hits a bit unevenly, but at night it does the trick. As others said, it only stays on while the button is pressed, but I don't mind that at all.The instructions were a little confusing (it tells you how to cycle through the modes before you get to the actual time setting instructions), but all the information is there. I'm only using it for telling time, so I don't know about the other features. If I have to reset the time I might need to consult the instructions. It's a few seconds off now, but it keeps time well enough. I'm glad it does not beep on the hour (at least not the way I have it set). It does beep if I cycle through the modes.I have not tested it underwater because my previous watch (another company) the waterproofing went bad and I don't want to deal with that again, but splashes from washing my hands have not caused a problem so far. No water inside the face.About 2 months in I am just now noticing the dark discoloration on the band. I think this is not it picking up colors, but most likely the white wearing off on the edges of the strap. It's not really noticeable unless I'm looking for it, although I expect it will get worse.All in all, a solid little watch. (And stylish, too!)
