“Watch Visibility Is the time always visible or does it require a button press or screen tap to activate/show the time?”

• No the time is not always visible - given it retains the last viewed screen (e.g. if you last viewed steps it stays on steps). It's as easy as pressing the home button twice to return to the time screen no matter which screen you are on. It hasn't been a bother to me.

• The clock function is always visible but if you want the backlight to come on to view in low light you have to tap the screen.

• The last screen you view is always visible. There is not a "home screen" at this time. But the display can be seen easily in the brightest sunlight.

• You can choose what your Surge displays. If you want it to display the time, it will display the time unless you swipe the screen to show a different one.

• It has its own screen you can swipe away to view other screens. When you are exercising, you can swipe a section at the botton

• The watch (fitbit surge) will display whatever page you last looked at. So if you check your heart rate and don't change it back to the clock face, it will remain with your heart rate on the screen. If you swipe over to the clock face, that view will remain till you turn the page. If you are in a dark room you will have to tap the face once to get it to light up (back-light) for a few seconds. Occasionally the sleeve of my shirt will swipe the screen and turn it from clock to step count, so I may have to swipe it back to clock.
