This style features a crystal guard that continues around the side of the case and separates the display into quadrants. The straight case design makes for clean angles and sandwiches the genuine leather strap for a clean connection of metal and leather.

This watch looks very cool. I think it's quite distinctive and I like it a lot. It's a little big and heavy for me. I'm a short guy, only 5 foot six, so I think it would look a little better on a bigger guy.
The numbers are easy to read in low light, especially if you hit the light button, but in some bright light conditions the numbers are hard to read. I think it's fine though. Setting it is easy.
I would recommend it for sure. I wear it when I go to my book signings and special events when I dress up.
Good luck finding the watch for you.

This review is from: Diesel Men's Watch DZ7070 (Watch)
I purchase this watch several months ago and have loved (and hate) it ever since. I've been in a search for a wide-band leather and digital watch for sometime now. After much effort I came upon this watch and it has served me in more ways than one. My intent with this watch was to wear this on the town while in jeans or dark apparel. I needed something less formal than a metal 1k watch which I wear to work. Something I can beat up and not cry a river over.
Since this is worn largely at night, I never had an issue with screen since I would have to hit a button to see the time on any watch. This time piece comes across more as a fashion bracelet than a watch. I am quite a small person (5' 5" with atlentic build) with small wrists (circumference of 17cm), and I never felt this watch was too large for me. Please read below for my critiques.
Key features: - Can be set to work in two different time-zones. - Has Chrono, Timer, and 4xAlarms - Can... Read more

The pictures make this watch look very cool and futuristic that is why I ordered it. Unfortunately the screen is just too dim, almost like it is broken like other reviewers have warned about. I had to return it, it is not a functional watch.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 is here and brings digital soccer to the next level. Central to the heart and soul of PES 2011 is the idea of freedom of play. This freedom invigorates the series with the most advanced set of gameplay improvements ever attempted by the Winning Eleven Production game development team, coupled with the greatest stride in new content.

Key Game Features
Take total control on the pitch on offense, defense, online or offline. View larger.
Total Control - PES Productions has enhanced the 360-degree passing ratio, offering unprecedented levels of control over every pass, shot, throw-in, through ball and lofted through balls. Users can pass the ball into space, and move their play with total freedom. Players must precisely weight their passes and second-guess the runs of their teammates and exploit their movement. Players even can apply pressure on opponents to force them off the ball.
Shot and Stamina Gauge - In addition to the generic power gauge, the Shot and Stamina meter details the player's exact level of fitness. Constantly sprinting will have an adverse affect on performance and statistics.
New Defender AI - Defenders now hold their positions naturally, instead of chasing balls that enter their area and work to close down the attacker to force mistakes.
Animation and Player Physics - PES Productions has totally reworked every element of in-game animation. These additions will become clear before even kickoff, with the players enjoying fluid, natural movements, with more realistic acceleration and inertia than ever before. The physicality between players is also improved, which was a priority requested in PES forums. Jostling and blocking now looks stunning, while there is a larger variety of convincing tackling styles. Ambient animation also adds immensely to the in-game atmosphere, as players behave realistically when off the ball, and walk and run with a variety of individual styles.
Speed of Play - The new level of control means that PES 2011 enjoys a more varied pace of play, which depends on the situation at hand. The game will burst into life as counterattacks come into play, but players can dictate the pace via slow build up or exploiting available space to surge forward. It is harder to make long runs from midfield, and successful play will depend on making quick passes to create space.
Aesthetics - PES 2010 showcased the best likeness' in a football game, and PES 2011 ups the ante further. Facial animation has been enhanced, but the key advances are over 1000 all-new animations which have been recreated from the ground up using over 100 hours of motion captured footage yielding more organic runs, turns, throw-ins, tackles, and interaction.
Tactical and Strategy - The PES Productions team has implemented an all new 'Drag and Drop' mechanism that can be used in every aspect of team management. These settings are also animated to promote better understanding of the plays that have been altered.
Feint settings - PES has always offered a wide range of subtle skills, feints and turns, but PES 2011 allows users to map their favorite move sequences to the right stick, making them more accessible than ever before.
Master League Online - PES 2011 marks the online debut for its much-loved Master League element, with players bidding against each other for the world's best players, and attempting to build a squad that can compete with the best against online peers all over the globe.

This review is from: Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 (Video Game)
First, let me start by providing my experiences with FIFA 2011. After reading rave reviews on FIFA 2011, I decided to give it a try after skipping FIFA 2010 (also had glaring reviews) and going with PES 2010. You can read my review on FIFA 2011, but bottom line is I ended up selling it mainly due to unrealistic and indistinguishable gameplay despite FIFA touting the "realistic" gameplay.
Unrealistic because you can never execute a deadly thru-pass with a top player with just one lowly defender who stood between you and the forwards running/waiting for that thru-pass. A defender would always intercept the pass unless you direct the pass to a completely open area which defeats the purpose. In real life, playmakers like Gerrard, Iniesta, Xavi, etc provide deadly thru-passes toward inside the box past 2-3 top defenders.
Indistinguishable because no matter which team you play or who you're controlling, they all have the same characteristics and speed. Messi or... Read more

I just got the game yesterday and only played one game under Professional difficulty with RM vs Milan. I won 4-2. I felt the control is much different from the previous versions, which need some time to get used to. The only complain that I have is the camera angle, which, sometimes, is hard to identify the right direction to pass and shoot, especially under the new passing system. Also, the strategy setting is a little to complicated to me. End of the day, we are just trying to play some soccer, not trying to play the Football Manager game. Other than that, the game looks great to me.
PS. I have been a PES and WE fan for over 10 years. No matter how good people say FIFA is, I aint to touch it. PES is for hardcore soccer fans.

First off, never write or trust reviews based on demos. Demos are never true presentations of the final games, at least for both PES.
I started playing soccer games since Fifa95 and Winning Eleven 95. For me, the WE series has got it right in the first place. Folks at EA have never understood the real mechanics of the sport, and have never delivered the "right" game that you can only enjoy as a fan or a player. To me, FIFA has done better in recent years than PES by offering more features and more real-name teams and players. But its core fun factor has never progressed.
PES has been fun because of its overall feel: ball physics, movement, team support, strategy settings and pass/shot/cross realism. Every goal is different. Now every save, tackle and cross seems to be different . You have games that really reflect the differences between player stats. I started off in Master League with the PES lineup, and after losing 2 games, I felt convinced because you... Read more
