A good work out wrist watch that's reasonable and trendy



In the event that you didn't get the sports-oriented watch you wanted for the holiday season, and you're looking for an extremely attractive and affordable watch that helps you remain in pace with 2013 trends along eventually, the Freestyle USA Sprint Watch does a whole lot, for really very little. Just $45.00 brings you a wrist watch with a sensational, bold look, accented with bright colors (a must for 2013), plus a black, flexible, polyurethane strap and polycarbonate housing that make the watch as tough and durable, as it is trendy. It can be water-resistant up to 30m (but the literature says don't wear it in a sauna or hot spa where heat + water can sabotage it).

The Sprint Freestyle has a lot of bells and whistles. The Japanese quartz movement is reliable, but the watch doesn't just tell the time and date. Additionally, it serves up choices for dual time, and dual time alarms, plus a 1/100's stopwatch chrono up to one hour with 10-30 lap memory, and present timers (1,3,5,10.15,20,25,30,45, and 60 mins). One button lets you utilize an EL backlight to see what time it is, even if you're in a movie theater and other low light or dark situation. If you want to be reminded of something (e.g. to exercise) there's an selection for an hourly chime. The battery lasts two years, and low light or dark conditions. Movement: japanese-quartz

The Freestyle Sprint will come in a men's and women's size, and in attractive combos of Blue/Black, Green/Black, Pink/Black or Gunmetal. I chose the pink version demonstrated to the left. I love the watch and many people comment "cool watch" when I'm running around town. The big numbers are easy to understand, which is really a real plus. My only issue with the watch which can not be one at all for the more digital-watch-savvy consumer, but I discovered it difficult to deal with lots of different functions using only three buttons that you simply need to press in sequence or numerous times, to get the required result. This isn't uncommon with digital watches, but don't lose the detailed instructions, if you ever plan to re-set the watch!

The Sprint Watch is a great accessory to possess while working out. This watch having an easy to see, digital display, provides a 30-lap memory, a 1/100-second stopwatch that functions for approximately 1 hour and a preset countdown timer. An electroluminescent back-light provides lots of illumination for quick reading of the display, as the polyurethane band and that durable polycarbonate 44 mm case and band ensures your watch will work in if gets wet, to 30 m water resistance.

This columnist was initially introduced to Freestyle watches a year ago, at an editor's preview. But the company has been around since 1981, when a few Free-spirited Southern Californian action sport addicts decided to produce products with purpose and function, hence the name "Freestyle." Based on the sheer variety of function of the watches showcased for Freestyle initially viewing, Freestyle is a name that fits this company's watches, very well.
