Voila Watches
"Grande Cruz" watch in stainless steel with enamel dial and leather strap.
The oversized case of this bold, colorful chronograph is precisely curved and incorporated with four independent lugs that adapt to snugly wrap around the wrist. It comes in a variety of colors, including ivory, midnight blue, cognac brown, amber and charcoal black. The timepiece offers a 1/10th-second Swiss chronograph movement, an oversized date feature at 12:00 and is water-resistant up to 30 meters.
But beyond all the technical stuff, I like this watch because it's nice to look at. It offers the time in a stylish way without being overly bold.
Suggested retail price is $496.
