"DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH. "ell-in-or

(3)

Ease of installation

OK

(2)

Ease of use

Medium to poor. The 'touch' bezel doesn't work if you have sweaty or very dry fingers.

(2)

Quality of Construction

does not work with sweat.

(2)

Fit

wristband is clunky.

(2)

Comfort

If I tighten the strap enough to keep it from bouncing on my wrist it is uncomfortably tight.

(2)

Durability

<5 hours of GPS use? Really? for a high tech sports watch.

(1)

Value

This thing should be $10

(4)

Appearance

Nice green! Too bad that's the best thing about this watch.

(1)

Performance

I use pace all the time. This thing bounces all over. 9:07 step step 11:20 step step 10:45 step step 8:43. WTH??

Strengths

It is pretty.

Weakness

THERE IS NO MULTISPORT FUNCTION ON THIS WATCH. You'll spend all your transition time sorting through the menus to get the "run" to change to "bike".
