Why pay more?

I have been using this watch for several years It is great. I have to replace mine and looking for a replacement Amazon is charging higher than Suunto is charging for it. Why pay more, go to the Suunto site and get it cheaper.

Very Comfortable Watch

Originally purchased this watch in 2000, lost it in 2008 and bought a replacement. Have worn it around the world on a daily basis. I've knocked it against many things with the only damage shown being a few scuffs on the face. Did have to replace the watch band a couple of times. The band on the first one seemed to be bit sturdier than the newer ones.

I have a large wrist and most other watches dig into my skin and are uncomfortable, this one is very comfortable. I have also found the dual time zones and the choice of 12 hour or 24 hour format to be very beneficial.

Technically Sound

Great features, but the display is hard to read unless you are direcly over the watch at zero angle. The field to the left of the hour display often displays other numbers at slight angles. I have had many watches(SuUNTO, Oregon Scientific, Bulova, Casio, nIKE) and none have aver done this. Im sure when I contact SUUNTO they will help me out. Just got the watch and havent had time. If it wasnt for that it would be TOP rated. So I will give it 3 stars....for now.

Plastic?

Good watch. I had some troubles but I send it to service and now is working well.
All info you need for ooutdoors activities plus a Heart monitor
You can change the batery every time you need by your self not sending it to special service, this also with the chest strap.

The only complain: no cristal, why an expensive watch uses plastic instead mineral cristal or saphire cristal?
