If you've got one, what do you think about it?

I do have one, It is a great watch for outdoor activities such as hiking and mountain biking because it has an altimeter and barameter and temp function. I also use this watch for water sports and it has held up very well. I will say it has more functions than I use, but I guess that is not a bad thing(it just cost more than an average 'G'), I think it looks cool and is a sturdy well built watch. I would certainly recommend one for outdoor enthusiest. I will add though, If you plan on getting muddy this may not be the best watch because the sensors for all the functions can glog, I have not had a problem with this however.

Please be very careful if you buy this watch off of ebay as there are many fakes!

Here is a pic of mine when it was new more than a year ago, I have put it through the pases with mountain biking and jet-sking, and it still looks this good.Name:  DSCN1605.jpg

I have also attached a picture (Borrowed from the web) of a fake G to have an idea of what to look out for, in my search for my G I found more fakes than I have seen with any other brand is why I am telling you this.

Thank you for the feedback, especially about the fakes! I am mulling it over and will likely purchase from Amazon, as I can not make it to a retailer in my current situation.
