negative display"regards the negative display never been my first choice in the passed but this watch looks so cool with it impossible to see at night and bad light without the back light there's no auto raise light either which is a must i think with a negative display obviously it's easier to see the display in the day but a small trade off for such a cool looking watch disclaimer "i paid for this myself" either during a lightning deal or full price"

74.8% |
