Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Reliable, Stylish
Cons: Expensive
I've never been a watch wearer so far. Then, a few month ago, I got my first Oakley watch, an Oakley Time Bomb (titanium dial). But that watch has so much value in my eyes that I can't resolve myself to get it out of his display case and wear it. I'm way too afraid about damaging it.
So I had to get an Oakley watch that I'd wear everyday. My choice went to the Time Tank (well, Minute Machine, ok). I bought it a few days ago and I'm already convinced that this is the best watch ever made in term of design.
The Time Tank is awesome, beautiful, wonderful, splendid ... and I could give a lot more adjectives is my english vocabulary was not that poor.
If you have a small wrist like mine, you'll have to remove 2 or 3 links, which won't be a problem with the hex-bolts.
You may go to an authorized Oakley dealer if you're afraid about damaging your watch by removing links though.
With respect to the weight, the watch seems really heavy but the titanium matter helps keeping a decent weight, so don't be afraid, despite a massive look, your wrist won't feel painful. I keep mine all day long and don't feel the need to remove it except for not damaging it at work.
The reaction of people looking at the watch are usually "Wow !", and this is definitely something that people look with curiosity.
I think that none of my O purchase have been more useful than this one. I'm going to wear it all year long, from summer to winter, with sunny or rainy days ... everyday, every time. So yes, this watch is a bit pricey, but come on, it's all worth it !

Not For The Timid

Pros: Comfortable, Durable, Reliable, Stylish, attitude
If you have a timorous or faint-hearted personality, DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH! As stated in the other reviews, this titanium time piece generates plenty of un-solicited conversation. Yeah, sure, it keeps great time, the chronograph is cool and it is certainly well-built, but let’s face it… this watch is all about the image and the attitude. I love this watch so much that I purchased the diamond version as well.
Note: If you currently own a self-winding watch, be prepared to spend a few hundred bucks on a quality watch winder… because once you wear a Minute Machine, you won’t wear anything else.
