The casing is made out of plastic, the band from leather and the buckle is plastic.

I also like that it hasn't got a battery. You charge it by movement or by turning the crown. Without movement the charge lasts 90 hours. And best of all it's affordable at €130.

There's a Swatch store nearby, so after work this afternoon I'll go by to check it out.
A lot of folks have stopped wearing watches in favor of checking the time on their phones. As most phones are plastic, would this be a solution you might be interested in?
