This is an outstanding watch for outdoors and adventure type activities. The watch is large and weights a lot, and is very solid. The hand visibility is excellent and lume is pretty good. This is a quartz and not an automatic, but quartz can be better for some outdoors activities as it is more shock resistant and can take a beating. This one has a mineral glass rather than sapphire crystal, so it's more prone to scratches, but again - better for rough activities as sapphire can shatter from impact.
Watch has a second time-zone function, so while not a true GMT, it does offer ability to monitor time in two time zones.
Crown screws-in and the watch can serve you while swimming. It's not a true diver as the bezel can't be used to measure remaining time, but it's fine for swimming or casual non-timed diving.
Bracelet is very substantial and has a great feel. The only thing people should be wary off is the milemarker trackwheel which can dig in to the skin if you have a smaller wrist.
Great value for an excellent watch which is ready for swimming, hiking and other outdoors activities.
