Title: 2 Failed after a year
Product review: Both my brother and I got this watch ~ 2 years ago for Christmas. I was drawn to it because it's the same interface as the Nike running watches, but you can replace your own battery which is a huge plus. During the time that it worked, it was a perfect watch. Good chronograph features, 2 time zones, stored runs... it was everything I needed. Then, after about 15 months, the beeper on mine stopped working, which was sad because I tend to use the alarms a lot during my day. Fancy it breaking after a 1 year warranty from High Gear. This would have been fine but when I returned home for the summer, my brother told me his stop watch was no longer working. It still displayed the time, but wouldn't start counting in the chronograph mode. One out of two can be bad luck, but having two out of two fail is strong evidence of very poor quality control. For me I guess it's back to the Nike, and just not being able to replace the battery myself.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
