I have owned several of this watch and It has always been a good dependable and comforatable watch. I partcularly like the velcro band as opposed to the plastic band.
Had purchased several of these for my husband over the years and ordered a new one. He wore it one time, it got wet and it has not worked since. Would not recommend.

I work construction. I was looking for a simple easy to read watch that was durable enough to hold up in the conditions it might encounter on jobsites. I've only had the watch for a few weeks now so I can't really judge the durability yet but I like the watch so far. It's easy to use and read and it keeps time accurately.
I work in the conservation field, which is mostly outdoors. I was looking for a watch that could hold up to abuse while I am doing work in the field. I've had this for about a month now, and it's been great! Like all of my other gear, it's collected some scratches and scuffs already. I rinse it off when I get home and let it air dry, and it's ready to go for the next day. The multiple functions are great for any kind of timer I need, and the alarm is great for when I get the chance to take a short nap. Would recommend!
i have owned about 10 of these monsters over the years, one just as good as the next. could not find it on website for quite a while, then checked on a whim, and found it !! bought 2, just in case it disappeared again...buy extra web straps, they tend to wear out a lot sooner than the watch.
I do like the watch, but it has several issues. First, the band loops for tucking the strap are such cheap leather that one of them is tearing after just two weeks of normal use. Second, the button for lighting up the display, being quite prominent, is very easy to activate unexpectedly, reducing battery life. Also, the digital display itself is weak; makes me think that I received a watch with a battery that is already half done.
