I needed a new hardy watch to fit my active outdoor and in shop habits. I also have experience with atomic clock watches and prefer them whenever possible to avoid missing time changes and accuracy drift. This watch fit my exact needs and surpasses my expectations. It synched to the proper time the first day I wore it and has been comfortable to wear and easy to see date and time. I have owned pricier watches in the past that weren't near as full packed with features I need and didn't have the accuracy this watch has. If your lifestyle is busy and filled with outdoor conditions then I highly recommend you consider this watch. You won't be sorry.
