Brian it is the worst thing I've ever encountered. I can't decribe how immediately miserable it felt when I first put it on. Maybe it breaks in, but I don't plan on finding out. I wore it for ten minutes and that was enough. The way it's constructed with the plastic loop thing under the 6 side is awful and uncomfortable. On top of that, if you have a larger wrist the part of the strap that flips over becomes much smaller so most of the exposed strap is just that fuzzy velcrow crap. I think it would probably work better on a 6" or less wrist, maybe...

But the watch itself is not bad. Looks good, very comfortable, chrono works well. It has a 1/10th second timer which I didn't even realize. Not sure I'll need that but it's neat to use. And after three days it is dead-on accurate to the second. Yes a $5 quartz movement is better than every single watch I own
