one of a kind, but wish it had an always on setting
 
Review Date: March 18, 2008
Reviewer: Justin Hewelt, Spring, Tx United States
Let me start off by saying that there is no alternative for this watch in production today. If you want style and a great land navigation tool built into one, this is definatly your only choice.

The good points about it, is it works very well, it has a setting to offset the compass for varying inclinations (offset for magnetic north), solid look and feel, basically everything I could think of wanting from an electronic compass.

The two cons are pretty substantial though.

One it doesn't look like a 500 dollar watch, it's eye catching, people have never seen anything like it before, more then likely, but you will have to explain to them what it does before they realize why it is so special. Which in turn gets many oooo's

the second is from the practical side of the watch, if you are using it to follow a path, and are the type that likes to constantly look at his compass, there is no option to leave the compass on, rather you'll have it cut out on you every 15 seconds.

Regardless though, like I had mentioned in the begining of this review, there are no other watches in this class. So if you are a person who land navs sans gps, this might be the perfect watch for you.
Better of with a Tissot

For the price you have to pay for this watch, you might as well move up to the T-Touch by Tissot. Same features as this watch plus a lot more. Not to mention that the Tissot is a classier watch!
