| Customer Reviews: Average Rating:  Rating : - Rugged, Eco-friendly watch for the gadget savvy. I am using this watch for over an year now, and I give it a 5 star !!! I love the design, look and functions of this watch. It exceeds all expectations in looks and operation. This watch does everything that I expected and more. The good- The step-by-step manual is easy to understand even for the non-geeky type.
The dark-blue dial with a cross-line texture looks trendy against the titanium dial and white letters. Its also easy to read even in dim lights.
The crystal is really tough and has sustained some minor scratching, because I have banged it against car door and other things accidently many times.
The 22mm-wide strap is beefy and goes really well with casual as well as formals. I also tried changing the metal strp myself - I bought a 22-mm brown leather band. The titanium case goes really well with brown leather strap. Make sure you use extra care while changing the strap as putting the titanium strap back is a bit tricky.
The alarm is feeble, but that's all you can expect from an heavy built metal watch which is not digital.
Things I don't like: The mode function is a bit annoying. Accidently turning the crown slightly will change the mode setting you had - chrono, alarm, time, or local time. Sometimes even moving the watch around your wrist could change the mode. This could be due to the fact that the crown is easy to turn, and the crown guard does not extend very far on the bottom side of the watch, so it is too easy to rotate.
Even though the strap is made of titanium, it is still getting scratched easily, especially the outer-side facing part of strap and the clasp. - May be its the way I use it as I use it really rough, and had it been steel it would've been worse.
Overall, I am really pleased with the watch - it is a treasured possession, and something you can own for a decade or more without any problems.
