I have the grey knobs, grey face, and greenish band.
Looks aside, I love all of the functions. I haven't worn a watch for many years because I hate the restricted feeling of having a watch on, but I hate to be without this because there are so many functions. The barometer warns me when it is going to rain, I can track my steps, altitude, sunset. It locates you anywhere in the world with its built in GPS so you will never be lost. Just one heck a cool piece of machinery. Oh, and it give notifications and a small description of calls and messages. Just super functional.
It is made in Finland and they did a great job. Amazon was great as usual as well. This is probably my favorite purchase of the year so far.
UPDATE: ONE YEAR LATER *****
Still love this watch. It is really cool. Once you learn how do do everything, it has so many feature. Looks as good today as the day I bought it because it is rugged and made to last.
The storm alarm is extremely accurate as well. It alerted me to a storm and I hadn't remembered seeing in the weather that we should be expecting one; I checked the weather and it didnt say anything about a storm. Sure enough though, about an hour later the winds picked up and it rained harder than I've seen it rain in awhile. I couldn't help but think if I was on the trail, this would have saved me.
Only couple of things I'd change is better battery life, but with a portable charger this doesn't really affect my outlook, and the strap material isnt my favorite but I'll try the silicone one.
If you want a simple watch that is simple and tailor-made for being a reliable tool in the woods then you will not be disappointed with this.
Pros: Great looks, super tough Sapphire crystal (mine is still perfect), awesome GPS features, comfortable strap, easy menus, accurate pedometer, cool backlight, very good battery life, easy to charge, tough bezel takes a beating.
Cons: Does not change time zones automatically, GPS acquisition is often slow, temp/baro sensor is on the back against the skin, rendering those readings unreliable.
Overall, I love it. I've been wearing it literally everyday since I got it, which says a lot. The "Movescount" app for iOS is pretty cool, but lately I've had a couple issue with it crashing - but that doesn't involve the watch itself. I'd give it 5 stars if it had an auto time change function, as I travel a lot and would appreciate no having to do it manually. Perhaps in a future SW update, Suunto?
Temp readings are easy enough to get. On one hunting trip, I simply took it off and hung it in the shade of the tree for a few minutes, and the reading corrected. For hunters, readings like temp and elevation are important. Ditto for moon phases.
I'm still glad I chose it over the competing offerings.
If your looking for a survival watch this is one of the very best you will find.

El GPS consume mucha batería pero sabiendolo usar, el reloj puede durar 6 días con batería sin problema.
Se puede recargar desde un battery pack perfectamente, directo al coche, a la computadora o al contacto de la pared.
