"---Still in the process of writing this review ---
I paid $180 for this product because it was open box return at Sport Chalet. Someone got it as a Xmas present and it was returned to the store. I think I got a great deal for my money. "jenbendewish

Ease of installation

Definitely some quirks in getting the wireless ANT agent to communicate with computer. Mine only works with one computer.

Fit

The watch is pretty big for my small wrist. But, after running a mile or so I don't notice it and I am glad to have the large display.

Strengths

Great watch/GPS for biking. I have mounted it on my handlebars and the large display makes it easy to read.

Weakness

I have done several runs where the watch dies on me. On other runs I have locked the bezel and this resulted in the autopause getting stopped and not restarted - therefore losing a mile or so on a run.
