No buyers remorse!
This watch is awesome, I don’t feel like I’m wearing a watch at all. Very light. Easy to use and read. Easy to customize the quick buttons or view controls. It looks great, it performs greater.

Good but expensive
It's okay. The price tag is too high. You can ping yourself for location in grid but has to be outside. Good for hikers. It tells you sun up and down.
