The case is water resistant
plastic, designed to let the WWVB radio waves inside, to reach
the antenna. The band is a steel stretch band. The WT-967-S
is available in three different band sizes. You should buy
a size just a bit smaller than your wrist measures if you like
your watch to fit snugly and not move around.

Note:
This is an "atomic" watch. Atomic (or radio
controlled) watches receive a radio signal to set themselves.
Like any radio receiver, however, they may not be able to
receive the signal if they are in a building with a lot of steel
in the structure, near computers or other electrical equipment
that may generate interference, or if the weather is unsuitable.
The signal they receive does not propagate well during the day.
That's the nature of the signal, not the watch. These watches
are designed to catch the signal when they can, generally in the
middle of the night, calibrate themselves, and then run quite
accurately for days until they can catch another signal. If you
are finding that the reception indicator is not on, you may need
to put your watch in a place where the signal is stronger,
possibly near a window facing Colorado, overnight. Also,
daylight saving time changes may not be made the first night if
the location and weather are not favorable.
