> Buttons

This is the killer feature for me and why I still use mine daily. I don't know why nobody else is doing this. With media controls on a shortcut slot I can pause whatever media I'm playing, switch songs, etc without even looking at the screen. No other smartwatch I've used comes close to that convenience.

I have a Fossil Hybrid HR Collider that allows this.

Real watch hands, buttons and an e-ink display. 7-10 days battery life.

It's a really nice watch.

Seems like a lot of reviews out there that indicate that the screen fails pretty quick - have you had any trouble with lack of contrast on yours?
