Suunto X10 Watch
Do NOT buy this.

Too bad this review doesn't have a negative star scale. I am a soldier and was in a scout PLT for 2 deployments. I went through 2 of them and went back to my Garmin. We got these to mark grids and blah blah...anyway, they break\tear so easy and to get them repaired or replaced is a long wait + a pain in the a$$. The place here in the states acts like they are doing me a favor fixing thier product that broke a 3rd of the way through it's first year. l Battery life sucks and they are the opposite of intuitive. they ride right at the wrist and the frame and band are one piece so there is no give or flex so the bezel just pops out\off. The strap will tear if you try to push off a wall or door. FORGET about wearing it to the gym, if you flex your wrist during presses it will tear the band or pop the bezel regardless of how tight or loose you wear the buckle. My cheap casio lasted 3 times as long and didn't die on me in the middle of the trip. Thank God I didn't pay for them but I guess we all did with taxpayers money. Suunto sucks and are stealing from the taxpayers. IF you do buy this thing write down the # on the back because it will wear off and that is what the shop INSISTS on referencing to see if it is even covered still, trust me you are going to need it. Minus 5 stars.
