Just a few things. The watch came with a dying battery but a new battery was included with the watch. What was not included was a instruction manual that was remedied within a day after a couple emails. So, I got the watch up and functioning like I wanted only to find that after a month, a pin for the wrist band buckle broke. My initial impression is htat the wrist band is too stiff and taking the watch on and off daily put too much pressure on it. I still haven't found the time to get to a jeweler or watch store to replace the pin.
That said, for the time I had the watch, I loved it. Looks good, seems accurate, easy to calibrate.
