The Freestyle Story

Twenty-eight years ago, a couple of surfers turned a simple observation into a cultural icon. Nowhere could they find a watch that would withstand the abusive conditions of their lifestyle, and the damaging effect of salt water and sand. Necessity being the mother of invention, Freestyle was born. Freestyle has since evolved into a diverse collection of watches ranging from the iconic Shark watch to athlete designed signature time pieces.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dual Time Zone w/o a huge watch face., April 26, 2008

I've been searching for a dual time zone watch for a few months in the stores. All seemed to either have two watch faces - hideous looking on a woman's wrist, or they were only offered with leather straps. This watch has a polyurethane band and contains no leather. It displays the day, date and time. You can "flip" over to your alternate time zone with the press of a button, perfect for a world traveler like myself. As a bonus I found out after the watch arrived, that it is waterproof up to 100 meters for swimming, snorkeling, surfing and other water sports. Since it is a sporty watch it has four operating modes: Time, Chronography, Timer and Alarm. Chronography mode has a 45 lap memory and Timer mode can do countdown or heat timers. You can set 3 alarms indepedent of each other. On top of all these features it also has a backlight and you can set the day in English, French or Spanish.

I purchased this watch for vacation travel to Alaska. I was looking for a watch that was waterproof, had dual time, & alarms, & this watch has all options plus more. It is easy to set, easy to read, & comfortable on the wrist. I wear an 8" bracelet & this band has plenty of length to spare. For the price you can not go wrong.

This review is from: Freestyle Women's FS80920 Solstice Watch (Watch)

I purchased this watch 11 months ago after my Timex Ironman died while trying to change the battery. The buttons are very hard to push and the alarm settings don't give you the option to set specific days or weekends. Nevertheless, I've been using the watch for the gym and never exposed it to water until last week. The watch died in 5 FEET of water! It is supposed to be 100 meters resistant! I contacted the Freestyle repair center and they advised I should mail the watch to them (my expense)to investigate and pay $8.50 for them to return the watch. They requested payment via money order or credit card information provided in a letter
(what ever happened to personal checks)?. No thanks. Do yourself a favor and spend more money on a different watch but not on this brand. It is junk.
