The watch is light weight and beautiful, The leather is soft and a soft sand/pink pearl color I absolutely love it and it goes great with anything. I have a small wrist and I wear it on the 3rd to last hole with a little wiggle room for it air out some during the day. The face is an inch across and a little larger than I imagined it would be online, however I love the contrast the small band gives with the larger watch front - its color is more of a rose gold color which I originally wanted from the other color that went out of stock so I am happy that this gives me that option! Other reviews say the watch face sticks out quite a bit but I have to disagree, I am hugely picky with watches bracelets, etc but this watch is perfect! The face like I said is about an inch across so it is a little larger than the picture indicates but none the less the watch is extremely cute and light weight (which I am also picky about) and I will wear it with casual and up-scale outfits! Thanks Zappos!

This is a really pretty watch in person. It has a large dial (a little over 1.25"), but the thin band and sand colored face make it both feminine and neutral enough that it doesn't overpower other jewelry. I have a platinum wedding ring and the silver and tan tones of the watch tie it in nicely with gold bobbles, no easy feat, and I think the reverse would be true as well. It's big enough that I probably wouldn't wear it with another large piece, but all in all this watch makes a statement without screaming, "I'm trying too hard." My only concern would be that scratches would really show up on the glass, but that is going to be true of any large faced watch, and I own several Fossil watches and have been very happy with the quality and longevity of them.

I absolutely love this watch! The leather is so soft and pliable! As usual, Zappos sent the watch overnight and when I opened it, it was already set to the proper time and running! My wrists are smallish, and the multiple holes in the band allow for adjustability and it fits me perfectly! I was concerned having leather next to my wrist, under the watch itself, would be irritating or annoying, but after a few days wear, I do not even notice I have the watch on. I wanted a watch that I could read without my "cheater" reading glasses on, and the numbers and marks on this watch are indeed easy to see. This watch is such a winner, as soon as I can afford it, I am ordering another one in a different color.

I bought the Fossil watch for my wife. She has very small wrists. The watch is a perfect fit and she LOVES the style.

I have not worn a watch in years and decided it was time to grow up and wear a time piece as opposed to always checking my cell phone. This watch is elegant and simple. I also love that the leather is not dyed or tanned so it will change color with age. A few times I left it on while giving my daughter a bath and it still worked perfectly. I received tons of compliments on it as well. Sadly, I cannot find mine after Christmas, but I will definitely buy another if it doesn't turn up! Fossil is my go to store for accessories and this watch reinforces why. If you like simple and elegant, this is the watch for you!

Great watch! Looks very sharp and can go with anything. I have very small wrists and was worried the face would be too large, but it was just fine. Received a few compliments as well!

Great watch! I have a smaller wrist so I tend to have issues with watches not going small enough. This one fit really well and even had a few options to go smaller. The leather goes well with black and brown. The watch face is a little thicker as other reviewers commented on, but I don't think it makes it look bulky.

I love this watch! I wear it every day. Pros: Great neutral color, classy and subtle for office environments, skinny band and large face are flattering for larger wrists. Cons: leather darkens rather quickly (disclaimer: could be my fault for not removing/protecting watch when I wash my hands), and toughens on the bottom if constant friction is applied (like full days typing at the computer). Love to style it with beige leather skinny bracelets for stacking, but mostly just wear it alone. Review context: I'm 5'11" with a medium-large frame (meaning my middle finger and thumb easily touch when wrapped around my wrist, but not with a lot of excess space). Because of my larger frame, watches, bracelets, and wrist cuffs tend to be less than flattering. I'd been searching for a great quality watch that I can wear every day. I wanted one to be neutral and expensive-looking enough for work, but one that would also class up a casual jeans and tee outfit. Fit: Love the fit. I found the slim band coupled with the large flat watch face and neutral color to be extremely flattering for larger wrists. I clasp it in the fourth hole (out of eight - first hole being closest to the watch face) and it fits snugly in the base of my wrist. If I wanted a more casual look, I could clasp it in the fifth hole for some range of motion. Quality: Watch face has not scratched at all (and I wear it every single day and am not a particularly careful person), and there has been no tearing or stretching of the leather. However, the leather has darkened significantly and it's more of a dark taupe now instead of the lovely pinky beige it began life as. This may be due to the fact that I wash my hands with reckless abandon (I live in NYC so I kind of have to, what with this deadly flu and all), and my preference to wear the watch so close to the base of my hand. I'm sure if I was more careful, I could have at least prolonged the discoloration. I'm also a software developer, so I work at a keyboard all day, every day and this seems to have caused the bottom half of the watch's leather to toughen and now it has a slightly shiny quality to it. That said, none of this bothers me significantly, the top of the watch has more or less retained the supple pinky beige I fell in love with. Color: As I've mentioned above, it's a beautiful pinky-beige. I cannot figure out for the life of me whether I'm a "cool" or "warm," despite having taken seasonal color analysis tests over and over (I think I'm a Warm Spring?), but this color is definitely flattering, since it incorporates both silver in the hardware and golden undertones in the leather. If it helps, I've got warm light blonde highlights on cool dark blonde/light brown hair, pale, freckly skin with red undertones, and medium blue eyes. I think this watch would work for all skin tones, except for olive (but I'm obviously no expert). Hope this review helps someone decide on this watch!

Really nice watch, however, not for every day wear because the leather band will show quickly show dirt, etc.

This is a very stylish watch. It has a substantial feel to it and a nice big face. No need to squint to see what time it is. The color goes with so many other colors.

I am big on watches but ordered this one and find myself wearing it with everything. I love it because it is simple and the band looks great, as well it is comfortable without the weight of other watches.

This is a beautiful and very comfortable watch. I love the feminine looking narrow band and the larger face. Couldn't ask for a more perfect design.
