This is my second such watch.  I don't use it for diving and generally don't expose it to other "extreme" environments.  I just like the fact that it is fairly rugged.  The numbers are easy to read, but I'd be happy if they were just a bit bigger.

The band on these watches seems to be fairly durable.  I wear the watch almost 24/7, and the band seemed to show no perceptible wear after a year.

I can't really comment on the watch's waterproof credentials since it isn't normally exposed to moisture other than rain.

The watch sits a bit higher off the wrist than some watches, but it's not really an issue to me.

The buttons and functions are all very intuitive so directions are really unnecessary.

Unless/until something better comes along (in the same price range), I'd replace this watch with another identical one if this one broke.
