Wonderful

I got this the other week, wonderful watch. I'll start with looks and add a picture soon.
I got the regular black one, after hearing that the negative display is a pain to read. It's quite easy to read, about the same as my Nike+ Sport Watch. (Perfect running GPS watch btw). I'm very lean, 5'11" and 135lbs. I have a very tiny wrist and have to have the Core on the second to last notch for a good fit. Fortunately, it doesn't look silly. It's a beautiful watch and has earned me several compliments.
Function wise, I love it. The barometer is easy to read and quite accurate. The altimeter is very accurate as well, I love the auto mode where it switches between the two depending on if you are moving or not. The temperature... not so much. It's usually about 15-18 degrees off due to body heat, though spot on when you just have it sitting somewhere. The compass works perfectly, and the bearing feature is really cool. I love how you can cycle through a lot of different information no matter what mode you;re in. Couldn't be happier.
At this point I have no complaints at all. I love it and will update this if I have any other conclusions about it.
