Easy to read and use. Works great and having two start buttons is helpful. The read out is clear and it seems to be very durable. The date on the back of mine is 5 year limited warranty with free service through Sept 2017. I bought this in April 2016 so they are really giving me more than one year for the free service and then from Oct 2017 to Sept 2021, the fee is $10. Honestly though, I don't know what could go wrong if you keep it dry. It's only a few dollars to replace the battery and I don't think the battery life is a warranty item so I'm not taking a star away because of the date and warranty timing. What does happen though is that the buttons get pushed when the stopwatch is in my bag. I often find the time maxed out or the watch still running when I pull it out of my bag. I previously had an Ultrak 340. Great stopwatch and the buttons did not get pushed while it was in my bag (note: the Ultrak 340 doesn't show split times). I love the readout and the split screen and the quality is very good. The button issue is a tradeoff. It's easy to use when timing events because you get a clear button push, but because the buttons are so easy to use, the watch will turn on in your bag. For my use (personal swim training), I wish there was a little rim around the buttons to protect the buttons, but that might make it harder to use the watch for timing events. If you are timing events, this is the perfect stopwatch. For me, I just stick it in my swim fins and that keeps the buttons from being pushed.
