Watch good, band not

I recently purchased an eco-drive because I had good experiences with a previous purchase. I prefer automatics but didn't have the cash for the watch I want. I don't like buying batteries every year or two for quartz watches. This watch meets my requirements but the band leaves much to be desired. I wanted a tough military style band. This band is too stiff and very uncomfortable. I am trying to get used to it but am seriously considering replacing the band.

Nice watch except for wristband

The watch has a very sharp design and looks really cool, but the wrist band, which is made of canvas, is loose and doesn’t hold a shape, so it doesn’t hold the watch face securely on my wrist. It’s always sliding to the side, which is very annoying and not what I expect from a $700 watch.
