Love this watch

"This product is a GREAT assset to our hiking and skiing excursions. The large buttons are easy to use with gloves on. The rate of descent is a fun function when skiing. There are numerous functions, but once you learn the menu sequence (it will take you about 15 minutes), it is easy to navigate through these functions. The altimeter requires resetting for the most accuracy, but can be done very quickly and in ..." Read Full Review »

"I really like this watch. It is very light and has a large display for quick reads. The fuctions are pretty easy. I have the "reverse" model with the dark background and lit numbers. Makese easier to read for me. Very durable! Seen a lot of action and keeps going.
