The Fossil Wrist Netor the Swatch Paparazzi

I like how quick and easy it is to slip the watch onto the chargerwithout actually having to plug it in.What I Don't Like About the Fossil Wrist Net The buttons. They feel wobbly and cheap, and have to be pushed almost entirelyin before they register.Not water resistant.The screen. Not as much contrast as the Paparazzi's.Backlight. Doesn't illuminate uniformly (though it is still sufficient).Volume. Watch faces. The Wrist Net comes with some watch faces I wouldn't mind seeingon the Paparazzi.ChargerThe updated Fossil Wrist Net is definitely a step in the right direction, thoughit's important to note that the focus was on aesthetics and comfort. I'mnot going to make a final determination as to which watch -- The Fossil Wrist Netor the Swatch Paparazzi -- is the better of the two since I think that's a completelysubjective question and depends entirely on preferences and priorities. I havetried, however, to make enough information available on Watch Report to help youmake your own informed decision. I don't think you'll be disappointed with eitherone.

The Paparazzi's alarms are very flexible and powerful. The Fossil's alarms are simply daily alarms.The battery doesn't come charged. The fact that the first step in the QuickStart Guide is to charge your watch for 6-8 hours is disappointing. (Not so mucha reflection of the watch as the manufacturing and distribution process.)
