I bought this watch for work in Antarctica. I wear it on the outside of my parka, strapped to a VHF radio. It takes serious abuse: snow, rain, ice, hurricane winds, bitter cold.  Works great.

UPDATE NOVEMBER 2014- Still ticking, keeping great time. The bezel is almost impossible to rotate now, but i don't care as I don't use that feature. Best bargain watch around.

UPDATE MARCH 2015: This amazing watch continues to keep perfect time. The small retaining loop that holds the end of the band broke off, and a new band is almost as much as a new watch, so I'll probably replace this watch with another exact model.

UPDATE MAY 2016: Still going strong. The face is pretty scratched up, as it is just plastic, but still keeping prefect time. This watch as been really torture tested in harsh conditions, and continues to work.

UPDATE SEPT 2017: OMG! I had to put a new battery in last year, but other than that, watch continues to perform. This watch just keeps going. 4 seasons in Antarctica, 4 seasons in Arctic. the heat of Panama and Costa Rica, the pouring rains of SE Alaska.  Wish I could give it 6 stars
