Customer Reviews
Pros (great watch) and Cons (huge)
PRO:
I really like these 'swoosh' shaped watches with huge numbers for running. This hits that perfectly - you could read the numbers from across the room.
The interval workout feature is very nice and something not found on many digital sport watches.
CON:
In day to day operation I miss having more than 2 alarms (old IronMan had a bunch 5, 10 something like that) and more importantly a countdown timer.
The bigger problem is the size/band setup. This watch is large (5cm diagonally across the face). If you have say marathon runner wrists I'd measure first and see how well it is going to fit. The face size isn't the only problem. Because of the non-replaceable ridged band (that doesn't curve as tightly as fabric would) the watch fits even bigger than it actually is.
As a running watch having it slide around a little bit isn't the end of the world. Sadly I could never wear it all day. On the plus side this makes the lack of alarms less of a problem.
CONCLUSION:
Bottom line if you've got the wrist for it (~ >18cm D) buy it. But if you are female or a life long distance runner you likely don't have the wrist for it.
An upgrade from timex OVA
I had my Timex for about 2.5 years when the band broke. It really annoys me that you have to send it to some repair center to have it replaced for something as insignifigant as a band. Unfortunately this watch will be the same issue one day, the band however feels much more substantial than timex did.
The wrist size needs to be correct, it fits my wrist right up to the next to the next to last opening and I consider my wrist to be slightly less than average sized for a man.
The watch itself is fantastic the numbers truly can be seen from across the room. The capabilities of the watch are as good as timex, with the exception of the 5-10 alarms, only 2 for this watch, but frankly it is one more than I need. I like a large watch and this is quite large on my wrist, it has a substantial feel to it weight wise, not light and "plasticky" like timex. The colors work better for me too, timex has some wacked out color schemes for their watches.
I recommend this watch as an upgrade from timex, but be sure you get the correct size, the super is for medium to large wristed men, or women with a large to very large wrist.
Nike Triax Fury 100 Super watch
Really nice watch. The band seems very durable. If you have a small wrist this watch will be a problem as the band near the watch does not flex at all. I have a med to slightly small wrist and I just barely make it. I have to use the holes near the end of the strap. Really nice looking watch, especially with the stainless steel around the face. The display is nice and large. When you use the run mode it will display the lap time and total time together, which is really nice. I am picky about watches and I really like this one alot!
