I had to order XL because I knew the shirt size but the pants are ridiculously big. But it was worth it for the nice shirt.

Good First Impression
Color: Luminous watch black face
The watch looks good, keeps accurate time (so far), and is very reasonably priced. I took some links out of the bracelet for a better fit - if you have the right tools (bought mine on Amazon) and a steady hand this is not difficult - if you don't have the tools and haven't done it before, you may find it frustrating. The tool provided with the watch didn't work well for me. This watch is much lighter than my old one which is a real plus for me. Ask me again in a year and I'll give you a better idea of its performance.

Nice quality for a good price
Color: Luminous watch black face
Bought this for my boyfriend for Christmas. He loves it! Nice coloring, looks like the pictures. Fits nicely and comfortably once the size was adjusted. He did have some difficulty in sizing it - the little tool provided could’ve been of better quality to make this process easier but it did the job.
