I do and I don't think that will shorten battery life and you can turn it on and off instantly and it's looks great. Mine is silver nano with a black watchband and i really love it Just buy a iWatch on Amazon you wont regret

The first time I used the golf watch it stopped working during 9 hole play. I didn't know if it was the watch or user error, so I charged the watch over night. The next day I headed out to play 18 holes. The watch performed beautifully. The watch was still working even after dinner. I will tell you that I do not turn the watch on until I am ready to start the round of golf. I am very pleased with my purchase. Hope this helps.

Am a lady and the watch is very big on my wrist, almost on the last hole so I would not use it as everyday. Sure do love it for sports. Walking, cycling, and riding horses.

Yes, my wife wears it while teaching spin & boot camp classes. She has even worn it while shoveling snow. The band is much smaller than the older heart rate monitor that she had. The watch is so lightweight that you forget you are wearing it.

Not sure if anyone answered this already, but I figured I'd chime in. I have a very small wrist, I'm 4'11". When I put it at the last hole its actually a bit tight on me, so I usually wear it on the 2nd or 3rd to last one. I'd think even if you have a super tiny wrist it'd be totally fine. I absolutely love this watch I've had it since summer of 2013 and I wear it every day. I even bought a second one just in case this one goes haywire.

it is good if u have the luck that get a watch that works, i've read that many people are complaining about this (i am one of those people). it worked fine just about 3 months, then the problem is that it shuts down every time i use it and doesnt save my info or even the time. i havent been able to repair it since...

Hi Jane I placed an order and I love the watch the face is big and easy to read and fits adults so I placed another order to get some more and its been over a month and I paid for it and never received them. So thanks to Amazon policies they credit my account its a 3rd party and they kept giving me excuse I will never order from them again. I'm very unhappy at this time and so disappointed I hope this helps you and I hope you don't have to go through this I love Amazon though. Selma

I have the black one. It is pretty easy to see for me,but being that your screen name is biker Bill I'm not sure for your scenario being in direct sun light. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful I can say it's a pretty good watch the barometer is off alittle bit but you can compensate for the error the tempt is way off until you take the watch off Good luck be safe shotot straight

I phoned Timex and it's all waterproof (unless you press any buttons) but I forgot to ask them about chlorine effect. They did say the heart rate signal can't transmit to the watch while under water.When I wear it all day, I usually feel like my ribs got bruised, and I have it on it's loosest setting. I even took off the elastic, and just but the stiff part on my with sports tape (and it transmitted), but I still got that feeling. But I sit maybe 80% of the time I wear it so maybe that's a factor for the ribs pressing against something hard.

It has a normal watch function as well. However if you do not to intend to use this as your daily wrist watch (like I do -- I only use it for trainings), you will have to re-set the time again every time your turn it on after a while of being turned off. Not really a big deal but I can do without the frequent setting of time for sure. Usually I'll just ignore setting the time since I'll turn it off immediately after training anyway.

I had problems with the previous version. I sent it to them for a little problem, and they sent it back saying it water damage. I was pissed considering I live in a desert environment and the watch was in a (dry) drawer for months before I sent it in. I got it from amazon. As much as I want another suunto I just don't want to risk their crappy warranty service. (Their compasses have held up fantasticly for me.)

has anyone thought about ordering the go wear display? It definitely comes on a wristband, and it is the same price. The website says they are compatible, but i was wondering if anyone had any info on that. Thanks!

Played a few times with the bluetooth connected to my iPhone. Haven't had any issues with it disconnecting during the round. Actually noticed last time I played, that it was a bit annoying. ALL notifications that appear on your iPhone (i.e. emails, texts, application notifications, etc.) appear on the watch and makes it tedious to get back to the distance screen or clear all notifications during a hole, but that may just be me. Hopefully that helps. Definitely love the watch, I wear it beyond just playing, just as an everyday watch. Considering its cost, might as well get as much use out of it.

Hey Victoria:My son broke his band too probably by tugging too hard when taking the watch off. I'm gonna write to the company now to see if replacement bands are available. Please post if you found another band.Thanks, John
