All the features are very helpful. read the manual before u operate. Its the basic feature watch in the line of ABC- Triple sensors. An outdoor watch with affordable price tag compared to Suunto watches.If u like Big watches then buy this. its not at all suitable for a kid and people will think that he is using a wall clock. If u are buying a only for the features then better buy a digital compass,baro,alto,thermo and other feature instrument which is much cheaper.
