It would be interesting to buy one on on a credit card. Have it for 9 months, and show it does not meet its spec, and the spec was exagerated. The office of fair trading in the UK would take a very dim view of that. Whilst technically interesting, it is hard to see any real practical use as a watch. I guess it might impress some people at a party, although that might be short-lived if someone else at the party could prove the spec is exagerated.
