Great watch for running

2008-06-04
The interval timer function is great - helps to manage run / walk intervals especially over long distances. I bought this watch 5 years ago. It finally broke this past year - the only drawback is that the strap isn't replaceable once it breaks. Just purchased second watch and still quite pleased.

Tough and lightweight

2008-05-09
I am posting this review for my wife, since she actually wears it.

She likes the watch very much. The color and lightweight feel are definite positives. The only issue is that some of the buttons are not that intuitive to use (a common problem on digital watches). She uses it for the gym and other excercising with good results.

Love the 2 timers

2008-02-08
If you train using walk breaks or intervals, this is the watch for you. The 2 timers are fantastic. This is my second Sleek and I would get another or buy one for a friend.

Dirty!

2007-12-22
I really loved the way this watch looked out of the box. It fit nicely and was functional and pretty in pink. After only 2!! days, the bottom ont eh strap looked like it was dirty. I tried washing it, but it would not come clean. Now, after wearing it for about 2 weeks, the entire strap looks dirty and dull. I havent even done anything dirty in it that would warrant it getting this way. I do wear it 24/7, but I go from work to school and to home, and thats about it. I am going to contact Amazon and see if I could maybe replace it with the black one.

Love it!

Great for lap swim! I use it all the time. Don't expect to get the same color they show in the picture, I ordered one that looked lavender and the one I got is pink, but I really like the pink so I am happy.

Just Thrilled

The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

The Perfect Watch 2007-08-27
I am one of those 24/7 watch wearers. Where I go, my watch goes. I even sleep with mine on. This watch is so good, that after the face of my first one got smashed in after a year of wear (it got ran over) I went out and bought the exact same watch but in this light pink color.
This baby has got everything you'd need on a watch and will last you a long time. The review I read about it not being waterproof must have been caused by a malfunction because I've done many a lap and taken many a shower with this watch on.
The only minus about it is the color, which does tend to fade. I had a blue one that was the exact same model that did not fade, however.
Overall an excellent watch.

not waterproof 2007-07-13
i have been very happy with this watch for the past year and a half and had been swimming with it before, but after a recent swim in the ocean, it completely died. i was very disappointed.

Awesome Watch 2007-07-08
I have a different version of the Ironman Watch, but the wrist band is fabric, and is no longer clean! This watch has all the same great features, but is smaller, lighter, and the band is washable!!

Very good watch 2007-07-04
I've had this watch for almost a year and a half, and so far, it's still working, even though there are several problems. The thin straps on the side that are supposed to hold the watch in place are peeling, one of the buttons has fallen off, whenever the alarm rings, the screen goes blank, indiglo no longer works, and the wristband is dirty and won't get clean. I've swam in it and ran in it, but the indiglo and the watch display problems are probably not from that. I'm planning on getting a new watch exactly like this one and taking better care of it because this is the best watch ever.
************UPDATE*******************
Write after I wrote the review, the watch has died. I rodered a new one just like it from amazon. The new one is so much pinker and prettier than the old one. I think the straps fade quickly if you swim in them, and so I won't be swimming with the wtach to protect the lovely pink color. Also, the gray straps on the sides fade, too, and I beleive the indiglo could have stopped working because of me swimming in the watch, so be careful. Other than that, this is a great watch. It is very easy to use, an easy to read display, is very stylish, and has 3 different alarms, a chronometer, and a night mode, a timer, and so muhc more. That makes up for the hard to clean and easily fading strap.

Patek Philippe. Complicated Wrist Watches
Review: ... "Complication is the upmost level in watchmaking and Patek Philipe is the upmost swiss watchmaker. These two things meet in this beautiful album. The history of Patek Philipe complicated watches from 20s up to 80s represented by gorgeous photos. Every watch is represented by dial, movement and case back pictures. The book may serve both as a nice reading and as a collector's book. Excellent print. The only minus is the lack of detailed movements information."
