Fit:
I brought this watch to a watch repair shop and had it resized to fit my 5.5" wrist. Took the guy about an hour to get the job done. At first he took out 6 pins but found out it was too tight on me. With 4 pins removed (and 4 remaining), this watch now stays nicely on my wrist (with enough room for my little finger to slip in), and doesn't turn due to the size of the face and the clasp.
Appearance:
The watch looks better in person than in the photos. The ceramic band is very lustrous and "creamy"-looking. Fingerprints and grease get onto it easily though, but can easily be cleaned off. The MOP dial consists of 2 parts - a circle at the center, and a disc around it that is slightly more raised than the circle. The hour hand moves in the circle, the minute and second hands which are both higher than the hour hand hover over both the circle and the raised disc. I hope you get what I mean, because if you can see it, it is really interesting. The 2 MOP colors are also different for the piece I have - the circle is almost colorless (just cream/ivory), and the disc radiates in mainly red and green, if you view it from the right angle. This gives a sort of contrast between the center and the disc, I'm not sure if this was deliberately matched, or simply random, so each piece might be different.
Another thing - The back of the case on my piece is made of ceramic at the center, not fully stainless steel like in the pic from Amazon. I guess I just like it better :)
UPDATE 1 DEC 2011:
I have owned this watch for a year now and I can tell you how well it holds up. I wear it 5-7 days a week (that's almost everyday!) and it has accompanied me to the pool, the beach, snorkeling and even a hot spring. Some time ago it sustained a few small scratches on the band at the back when I fell on a hard rough street pavement and instinctively used my forearm to brace myself against the impact. I did not see the scratches immediately after the fall as they were quite faint and you had to look closely at certain angles, and I was too concerned about if it had been damaged or if it would suddenly shatter if I gave it a shake. Neither. This watch is still working perfectly well. This is impressive considering how hard I fell (I literally flew forward about 1 or 2 metres away from where I tripped, my friend who was with me was so shocked and astonished and we kept laughing afterward about how far I "flew"!). However dirt and grit do tend to get into the scratches and make them more obvious as time goes by, so I have to give it a good scrub once in a while. But this incident just showed me how well built my watch is and I love it even more now :)

I knew this watch was going to be big because I read the reviews. I like big watches so I was fine with that. This watch is beautiful, an amazing watch for the price. The only problem is that it just massive, thick and huge. My wrist is on the smaller side of average and this watch took up my entire wrist. I kept the watch for a few weeks hoping that it would shrink but it the end I had to send it back. If they ever make this watch in a 35mm size I will be first one to buy it. Beautiful watch, but beware, it is as huge as the reviews say.

I bought this watch in early November. It is gorgeous. However sometime over Christmas water appeared inside the watch. Amazon said I had to work through the manufacturer. So I sent the watch to SWI on January 3rd. Note, today is May 3rd!!!! I received a snail mail estimate to fix this watch the first week in February. The cost...$80.00. Despite the warranty the company said I must have had the stem pulled out. Well the stem is so difficult to pull out that I needed help to wind the watch when I received it. The stem was not pulled out. At any rate, I called and gave my credit card information immediately. I called the company at least four times over the next 8 weeks. If I could get through representatives were rude and reminded me that repairs would take 6-8 weeks. I called three weeks ago and was told that my credit card did not go through so they never fixed the watch. I asked when they ran the card as I had fraudulent activity on the card so the number was changed however that was long after the day I called with the information. Sure enough they waited to run the card and did not run it on the day, the week or the month I called with the info. I asked why the last person I spoke to two weeks prior to this call did not tell me about the credit card issue. They said yes they could see I called and they weren't sure why the rep did not tell me my watch wasn't being repaired because the card number wouldn't process. I asked why they hadn't contacted me to tell me there was a problem with the card. They said they had no way ofcontacting me. i pointed out thatthey sent me an estimate?? So given all of this hassle, I asked if they could expedite the repair since they have had my watch for nearly four months. The rep said well no that is a different department. They have now had my watch twice as long as I did. Do not do business with SWI!!!! Lousy customer service is not a strong enough adjective. I gave it one star cause Amazon rocks and the watch is gorgeous. The company deserves a -5!
