Right. I'm just thinking about size/weight and wondering if I should just strap a brick on my wrist instead.
The Emergency Mission is even larger than the standard Emergency (the NEW Emergency is even larger, I hear).

Asking price is ~$2700. No books, paperwork, tester, etc. Boo. Watch was recently serviced with new battery. My main concern is that the watch is just going to be too huge, and not practical for daily wear. Sure, it's a cool watch, but does anyone wear theirs everyday? I was leaning towards the Avenger Seawolf, but I've always like the EM. Thanks everyone! |

The Emergency will wear a bit bigger due to the antenna and transmitter, although I've heard the watch wears comfortably. Never tried one on myself, but would love to add one eventually. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

No books, no paperwork, no tester. Who serviced the watch in that case and what did 'service' mean? It's a big risk IMO even if you don't use the watch for one of it's intended purposes. If anything goes wrong down the track, what are the consequences of nil prov? Just a thought. |

You really want to see the whole set when looking at purchasing an E. Maybe hold off until another better deal comes around for a full kit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I would wait for a complete set, i waited a long time for the correct one. You do not want to risk it with the Emergency. |
