I, too, made sure I read all the reviews before I purchased this watch. I was initially looking for white-- I see it on Overstock now and I think maybe I missed it? But then I opened this box and WOW, what a substantial watch for the price!! Stunning, really. One reviewer described the color as the inside of an almond-- that's almost right on. This watch is really big-- I will have a few links removed and I have a big wrist-- and it's very weighty. Now that I think about it, I am not going to order white. Not that the rule applies about "white after Labor Day" anymore but I feel this muted, classy watch will be a terrific year round piece. The clasp is firm and I believe magnetic as well-- goes easily into place. Fantastic MOP dial-- subtle yet stunning. Don't hesitate-- buy this watch.
I am really picky about watches, and primarily I am a Michele, watch wearer. I waited on their ceramic because I like a larger case size. I looked at ceramics in all the quality mid range brands, because I did not want to pay more than I would for a four year private college education for a watch. I really didn't want diamonds on the ceramic because I feel it tends to look overdone and I wanted a more casual look for this watch. Then I saw the Lucien Piccard. However, my watch dealer at Tourneau told me about the returns they had on them and on how their ceramic chipped easily. Not what I wanted in an $1100 watch. So, after resuming my search someone showed me the a Karamica. Swiss Legend historically makes nice watches so I looked into it a bit further. The reputation and the reviews of Swiss Legend were great and so I felt it was worth a chance. Well this Karamica is true to the SL reputation, and seems to be an exceptional watch. I haven't had it long but right off the bat it keeps great time, and I've had to change it through a few time zones in the last month. I love the weight, and the beauty of the mother of pearl face with the added date. The creme, (beige, according to Overstock) is really an almond like color and is gorgeous. It's really perfect for those days when summer white is too much. I decided I didn't have much to lose with Overstock's return policy and at this price I purchased both the creme and the white. I was not disappointed and I am totally pleased with the purchase. The band is large, I removed four links and it still fits like a bracelet. For this price and Overstock's great return policy, you can't really go wrong, and if you are like me and prefer a large case size (39-40mm) than this is a really nice choice. The photos on this watch do not do it justice! It's a great price for a great ceramic watch and the ceramic is of good heavy quality, ( I've banged this one a round a bit and no scratches). You won't find a "quality" ceramic time piece in this price range and Overstock definitely has the best deal on these!
Love it!!! I have a few swiss legends. GREAT quality for the money. I have a few luxury watches and this watch looks just as nice as them. not to mention the nice things people say about it. I gave the black ceramic watch to a friend as a gift and she loves it!
This watch is gorgeous, and I hope I get a quick and WORKING replacement!

This watch was gorgeous! Just what I was looking for as far as color, material used and wrist size. The reason I returned it was because it was tooo heavy - really too much weight on my wrist and too large for blouse sleeves - they kept getting caught on it. I was sad that I had to return it.

I was looking for a ceramic watch for a while. I came across this one on overstock while Christmas shopping, I decided to treat myself. When it arrived I could not believe how beautiful it was. I felt so guilty I wrapped it and put it under the tree. I have gotten so many compliments the quality is amazing and the price was right.

Love the watch I received. It's a heavy watch but very comfortable to wear. Easy to read and I like the warm beige color. Happy to wear it.
I really like this Swiss legend ceramic watch. I had wanted a ceramic watch for a while, and so when O had a Swiss Legend ceramic watch at such a great price --- I jumped on the chance to get it right then! It's a super watch - is oversized, but not too large for my small wrist. I like the fact that it is an almond color - understated, yet definitely noticeable!
I really like my new watch. I was looking at white ceramic and was excited to find an off-white instead. This is a big, heavy watch and is really beautiful.
This is the most wonderful watch! The packaging is thoughtful. The watch comes in a large square red box and inside that is a leather package with the watch inside. The color description for the watch is Beige. I would describe it as another review did and that is more of an almond color. By almond I mean the inside of an almond. It is very subtle and very beautiful. It is a large and heavy watch so if you are a petite woman you might not like this as much. I am 5'9 and I can support the size. The mother of pearl dial is stunning. The hands have a subtle glow in the dark feature for easy reading in the dark. I love the closure, it is subtle as well and very easy to manipulate. This is now my favorite go to watch. It is easily dressed up or down. I can?t think of anything negative. Go for it! Buy it! I think I am going to order one in another color. I LOVE IT!!
I am in love with this watch. It is a beautiful cream color ceramic with mother of pearl face. I have always wanted the Roman numerals on the face and I really like how this watch makes them look. The pictures you see here don't do the watch justice! The construction is solid, good quality and really a great bargain for the price. The arrows glow in the dark and the cream color doesn't blind you in sun light (like the white one). The size of the face of the watch is appropriate (I was actually expecting larger). My arm's width is pretty small (I had to remove 4 links!) and the outside of the watch looks like a nice bracelet. The weight of the watch is pretty hefty I have to say, but I have gotten used to it. I have been very happy and this is my new favorite of all time watch. If you want to know details about the brand or the quality, just go to the manufacturer's website - you won't be disappointed and you'll see the bargain of a price you can get this for on overstock!
I absolutely love this watch!! Initially, I thought it was too large and heavy for me, but I am used to the larger size now, and am extremely happy with it.
I've wanted a ceramic watch for over 2 years. They were way too expensive for a long time and so I waited. This December I decided to go for it after seeing a beautiful ceramic watch on someone else. My preference was for a white bracelet and so I found one that's just great and I really like it. BUT...sometimes white is just too strong of a statement. That's when I reeeeally love to pull out this cream-colored beauty and show it off. It's sleek because of the clean ceramic lines but chunky enough to be a real piece of jewelry. I like the weight; it's substantial. The bracelet was easily sized at the jeweler and the time and date set mechanisms are very simple to adjust. I'm hopeful that this baby will run forever with nothing more than a battery change every year. It's water-resistant and durable. The ceramic isn't at all fragile. This is an excellent price point, especially because it looks so much more expensive. I recommend this watch.
The color of gold on this watch is a little too brassy making it look like fake gold. Returned the watch for the silver one just like it, which is great looking!
