Looks like it'd be waaaaay too big for me! Otherwise, I think it looks really hardcore and advance... thus the price I guess =)

No offense, but I can't see buying an $800 watch that makes me LESS attractive to women! That thing would be pure babe repellent.

A watch tells us the time. You could ask someone for the time if you were cheep. But do you really need to know by GPS where you are? Once again just ask somebody. Now ask yourself what culd I do with the money???

That's a sweet watch if you like taking hikes out in the middle of nowhere on another continent. Other than that, it's just a toy.

Kewl watch...but a bit overpowering on the wrist! It would be interesting to use it while flying.

If you are going to spend that much money, get a real watch that holds its value like a Rolex or Breitling. (a lot more than $800) but will outlast you.

Gimmick plastic watches are just junk. If you want a GPS buy a good handheld like a Magellan or Garmin. Dont misunderstand, its probably a good watch, just not worth the cash.

Anybody remember red LED Pulsars? First digital display, I think. Sold for $1200 and now can buy better for $10.

TonyH and SSP-

Both have the right idea (I like gold). :D

Paid $2400 for my Rolex in 1988 and can get more for it today. A new one is over $6000. (18Kg and stainless). Wish Id bought the Stainless Submariner I liked also then, ($1800), now out of reason.

Look here for my favorites

Yeah, I'd prefer a nice dress watch. Hell, you can get a sweet Titanium watch for less than that.

Cant you buy a decent watch and a GPS receiver separately for less than $779?

yeah but the rubber band to strap the GPS to your wrist would probably break the bank...
