So-so.. The clock works!

I love the look, size, and ease of use this watch offers, but I have had a lot of trouble with the internals. I have found myself constantly reseting the altimeter, the barometer is issuing storm warnings on gorgeous sunny days where there isn't even a change in cloud cover hours after the warning. The face is a little hard to read in certain light, I am a young man with good eyes, so it is not just an issue for people with glasses (I have the black face orange band one). I am taking a week long camping trip to Montana in 2 weeks and will give this watch one last try. If it does not behave, I may have to return it to Backcountry. I think you can find a better quality watch for the money. I have read multiple other reviews that have worried me about getting it wet, but I have taken it fishing and it has been in 1-2 ft of water with no issues. Just don't go scuba diving with it!!!
I'll follow up and edit this review when I get back from my trip.
