Gear Review
Good watch, cheap band
By Richie Olivier

I agree with the previous reviewer: This is a great watch, but the band/clasp lets it down.
I'd avoid the ST and TT models, as these are the ones with the clasps that tend to open accidentally.
Other than that, it really is a great watch, with all the functionality your need, for a good price.
