Thinking about getting a cool sport watch, took a look at the Nike watches on ebay. Anyone have something cool that has some neat features, but also stylish - not to big on the wrist? thanks

I was thinking recently about buying a sport watch. But decided to buy the stopwatch instead. I selected CASIO HS-1000, Japanese make.

It works OK so far. I can measure time for several participants. It shows just the time too.

The buttons are more convenient than on a wristwatch for a sport purpose.

I have also the watch on the bike computer SYGMA. But for the office I have the classical wristwatch.

Nixon watches are cool. Their website is WWW.NIXONNOW.COM. You can e-mail them and find out if their watches are available in your area. They only sell in surf, ski, bike shops etc. A bike shop here carries them but didn't have the ones I wanted. I ordered them online at www.cleanlinesurf.com (no shipping charges and no taxes).

I don't know how the men's watches fit but I love the fit of my watches. They just never seem to get in the way. I have very small wrists and usually its hard to get a watch to fit.

The guy in the bike shop here said the watches are very well made, I agree, and when a customer had a problem with the band the company took care of it.

They have quite a variety of watches so you should be able to get the features you want.
