The glistening brown dial features light, gold-tone indexes, an Arabic numeral at the 12 o'clock position, and three slender, squared hands in the same light gold-tone. A date calendar sits helpfully at the six o'clock position and a mineral crystal protects the dial contents. The 32-millimeter polished stainless steel case and stationary bezel are shaped in a slim rectangle with beveled edges, and the 22-millimeter brown leather band is finished with a crocodile-imprinted and adjustable buckle. This watch is water resistant to 99 feet.

Customer Reviews

Great watch at a great price.
I was very impressed when I received this watch the other day. The face is very stylish with the very nice colored leather band. You can't beat it at this price, great deal.

Great looking watch!
If you're looking for a smart looking casual watch, rather than something more rustic this one has to be it! I've been wearing my Cole watch for a couple of months and I find it more attractive every day. It's such a classic look that it grows on me. The only reason I didn't rate the KC1457 a five star was an issue with the wrist band itself. For anyone with a small wrist read on: This watch was not designed for use of the first three holes in the strap (band). It is difficult to slip the strap under the metal loop. (The first loop is a stationary metal one, the second a more typical leather loop which slides along the strap.) Because the metal loop is so close to the watch itself there's minimal room to slip the strap under that metal band. The result is unnecessary wear to the leather surface of the strap which will undoubtedly shorten the life of the strap. Kenneth Cole did not respond to my service request for help and suggestions. In any case, I doubt someone with an average width wrist or larger would have that problem. Great looking watch, though!
