I bought one of these about 3 years ago. When the watch band gave out I was living in South America and unable to find a replacement band.  Thanks to some people on this site I now have a number to call to see about getting that replacement.  I bought another Expedition with similar digital compass and other features so I will order two spare bands and probably these watches will last the rest of my life.

With respect to one reviewer's comment on the digital compass losing calibration:  I left my old Expedition unused, bouncing from pack to suitcase to kitchen drawer for more than a year.  Then when I checked the compass function today it was spot on, with no calibration for over a year.  Not too shabby at all.

Other than the flimsy original band, my only real complaint is the rather weak alarm, which often fails to wake me up.
