>> Feature packed luxury Tag watch
I have been looking for a feature rich watch ie alarm stop watch count down timer etc a digital watch but wanted a watch that I could use for work especially with travel I do 90 of my travel outside the US so a second time zone and an always with me alarm is a blessing This watch is a very classy yet practical and functional watch It has a rubber strap so it is more sporty vs the bracelet style It is quiet some are loud when they tick and it has a host of features some listed above all shown in the demo at The operation is simple once you read the instructions don t lose them A very nice bonus feature that I am surprised more watches don t have is the diary feature you can set an alarm for a future date a month 2 or 3 from now to go off at an appointed time In this day of PDA iPods and BlackBerry it is nice to know that if you simply have your watch which some of us never leave home with out you won t miss the important call meeting or what ever it is you don t want to forget
Key features you don t see in the book the hour markers and hands are treated with a light activated luminous material maybe Super Luminova but not sure They glow not as bright as my Luminox but continue to glow for 7 hours on my longest test and were easily visible from about 2 feet away with my poor uncorrected vision that is I could see it with out my eye glasses on They also do list the digital watch having a light this is needed in dim light as the LCD display is not visible in anything modest amounts of ambient room light The buttons require a firm push to cause an action and give a satisfying tactile feedback click to let you know you pushed it in for the function to happen I do not see these buttons accidently being pushed due the the force needed to activate The same is true for the crown which when pushed activates the digital light feature One caution the crown must be pulled out to set various functions time countdown timer alarm etc and if left in the out position you run the very real risk of having water or other undesired debris in to the watch so keep it pushed in at all times
The design is very clean and considering all that it can do is not too cluttered The lower digital window appears more prominent in the pictures then it does in real life due to the angle of the light If it catches it just right the window border is easily seen otherwise it just fades into the face of the watch not the case with the yellow face The bezel is easy to rotate with good tactile feedback and not lose or prone to accidental rotation It has a lum dot at the top for night time use The hour hand is long enough that the lum tip does over lap the hour markers so at night it takes an extra second to identify the longer hour marker so you now where the hour hand is Alternatively you can just use the digital light to read the time
On the negative side and why it is not 5/5 the lum on the hour/minute hands are very faint vs the hour markers and can be hard to see This is mitigated as described above with the digital option A bigger concern is the band build quality The band itself seems to be well made but the small piece that the strap tucks into seems to be very thin and I am concerned over time it may rip and come off It also is a textured rubber so that it seems to stick to itself so moving the band on top of itself when you are putting it on is somewhat difficult vs other strap watches I have rubber or leather I looked on Amazon com for replacement Tag bands for this model and they were in the 200 range Lastly the alarm is fairly quiet I think this has to do with the substantial case that the chime must pass from to make it to my ear but it is quiet enough that one may not hear it

>> A stunning watch you ll be proud to wear
This is an absolutely beautiful watch It has a very nice heft to it as you would expect from a Tag The anti reflective coating of the Sapphire crystal gives off a nice blue hue as you would expect from a high quality timepiece The digital portion of the display is backlit by a blue light with a press of the crown You can turn off or change the function of the analog display with a few turns of the crown
I suggest that anyone considering this watch should try the interactive Chronotimer demo at the Tag website which lets you try the functions of the watch and gives you a great overview of the features and operation
The pushers have a very solid feel with good feedback as does the rotating bezel ratchet The rubber strap is high quality very comfortable and elegantly executed
As other reviewers have stated the hands of this watch are very hard to discern with a quick glance In the dark you can totally lose the minute hand if it rests directly over a 5 minute marker because the lume of the hand is the same size and color as the marker I only deducted one star for the hands because I knew it was an issue and so I was not surprised Yet the beauty and functionality of this watch far outweighs that downside
