Even though its smaller than earlier models it still takes up too much room on my wrist. Be sure you try one before ordering online. Rating: 2 / 5 I bought this watch and found it to be too big.

If you want a little more discreet, go with the Observer. <br /> <br />The new synthetic band that has replaced the leather is a real improvement. After all, whoever heard of a sports watch with a leather band? The idea is absolutely absurd. HOWEVER, the back eyelit got chafed and worn away the first two weeks. Of course, it doesn't show, but it's annoying, especially considering this isn't an el cheapo watch. <br /> <br />If you're into mountain biking, running, swimming, hiking, or training of any sort, this is the watch for you. It doesn't have super sports specific functionality, but in my experience I've never used stuff like that in any case, so this watch accomodates me perfectly. <br /> <br />And women DROOL over it. Well, sorta.

So it’s big, real big, but cool. If you want a little more discreet, go with the Observer.

It is HUGE - looked like I had a clock on my wrist. Take into consideration. Rating: 2 / 5 I bought this watch because I wanted an altimeter but needed to return it because of its size.

But when I saw all the features it had I thought of all the uses I would have for it. For instance if I wanted to know if the weather was going to turn foul, I could check the barometric readings. Also I sky-dive quite a bit, and with the watch you can tell your altitude and rate of decent (which believe me is very important), although I still use an actual altimeter instead of the watch you catch my drift. For those of you who don't sky-dive but do fly, I find it entertaining to ask the flight-attendants what the current altitude is, and correct them when they are wrong, which they are most of the time. Ok, so what if I am entertained easily, but it still does not take away form the fact that this watch is unquestionably one of the best watches I have ever owned.

"Usually ships in 24 hours". It actually took 1 week to ship it. <br /> <br />2. When I finally received the package it turned out that the watch didn't have "leather band". The band was made of artificial materials (nylon and rubber) or something like that. <br /> <br />I will have to return it.
