I like leather straps on my watches rather than links. But apparently the links are the way to go for something more formal. I couldn't disagree more since I think the leather looks far classier. Guess its just a matter of taste...

I like the feel of leather better, but the look of links more.

Maybe make a watch that has metal links, but has felt on the inside of the link to make it more comfortable.

Its the actual look of the leather I like better. I think it might just be the contrast of the metal and leather, rather than everything being shiny, glossy and metallic.

I prefer a mix of shiny and brushed metal myself. Matches my wedding band as well.

The Rezound gets me through a day for the most part, but if I do heavy use it sucks the battery up pretty fast because of the screen + small 1620 mAH battery.

Watch is a simple 7 year old Fossil that was $105 if I remember correctly. I plan on buying a Citizen Eco-Drive after February. It'll probably end up being $300-$400 unless I get a good deal on it.
I have an Eco-Drive. Bought it several years ago... Best watch I've ever owned. Still looks the way it did the day I bought it.

you land on your forefeet and then roll back to your heel. most people land on their heel since there is so much cushion in regular shoes. this sends a shock straight up your leg and is bad for you, it's not the way humans are designed to run. i do squats with them no problem, in fact they are great for cross fit and other gym activities.

This may be why I get shin splints when I run.
