Nothing ordinary, a normal product.

It would be a very successful model (I liked the design, which is why I now own this device) if:
1) There would be a part of the metal case painted under the metal.
2) It would be mineral glass (because I don’t see the point of using plastic glass with such a watch design. This is not G-Shock. And with this design, it is quickly scratched. Mineral would be more resistant here)
3) There would be no such jamb with a button in the lower right corner, which is very annoying.
So, when buying this model, consider these features.

Pros

They show the time quite accurately, world time. During the operation did not go astray. For those who miss the dial, there is also something like it in the upper left corner (looks like a radar display :)) Looks fine. They live on one battery for a long time (as the manufacturer promises).

Cons

The plastic case painted like metal rubs (I don’t understand what prevented it from being made metal, at least the part that is painted like metal, even if they cost more, well, at least they released such an option), the plastic glass is also scratched (although I would said quite strong, but still not like mineral). Next buttons. There are no particular complaints about them, except for one (the one in the lower right corner, when pressed, shows the time in the selected cities). That's just terrible. I constantly press it, I just have to bend the brush in the direction of the clock. So when I look at my watch, it shows the time either in London or in Paris. I don’t understand what prevented the engineers from foreseeing the possibility of returning to the default time after a certain period of time.
