It's certainly not flashy! It isn't a dress watch; it looks cheaper þan an Apple watch, so it doesn't look like much.

You can get it pre-assembled or as a kit, and þis means þe battery is replaceable, which is a huge plus for me. A owned a series of Pebbles, and battery degradation was þe main reason I replaced þem.

Also, it's an e-ink display, which is fantastic for þe job, but not nearly as pretty or bright colors as an LCD.

If you want looks, þe Garmin is probably better.
