I have been searching for a watch just like this one for weeks. I swim for exercise and like to time my repeats, and this watch not only does that well, but looks great to boot.  Not bulky like some, this watch fits flush against your wrist and is easy to read.  I got the gray/orange color combo which wouldn't go well dress up, but the black one would.  I recommend it.

Side buttons are easier to push than the previous Speedo watch I had.  Previous watch had the touch pad for laps (Speedo Full Size 150 lap with Touch Pad), but the previous watch buttons started malfunctioning after a couple of months.

I have been using this one for a couple of weeks and side buttons are okay and I can find them in a flip turn with moderate ease.  We shall see if this one holds up longer than the previous model.

The watch is comfortable both in and out of the water and the numbers are large enough to read (even the splits) with a quick look.

Very happy with the style, comfort and features of this watch.  Very easy to operate while swimming to record laps.
