I couldn't love this watch more, and have one other. The bands can be troublesome, I've found, but I've adjusted each to fit with the tools provided, upon receiving the watches. I'm on vacation as I type, and it happens that this Khalili band presented a problem with the "final latch" you use to close the band onto your wrist. As it turns out, the watch fastens without it, so I set that piece aside. I'm hoping I'm able to fix it when getting back home. If you read this and have suggestions, do please contact me. I hope to purchase a Holzkern for each year of my teaching career, these last ten before I retire. Thanks. Cory Campbell
