The Nike Lance 4 Titanium Cycling Watch

The Nike Lance 4 Titanium Cyclin Electroluminescent backlight.Water resistant to 100 meters (10 ATM, 10 BAR, or 330 feet).Lance Armstrong signature engraved in the caseback.Battery hatch on caseback for convenient and quick battery replacement. (I'mnot sure how long the battery is supposed to last, but I'd guess it's a littleon the short side considering all the watch's features, and the fact that batteryreplacement is made so easy.)About $260, give or take.So support the Lance Armstrong Foundation with a yellow LIVESTRONGwristband onyour right wrist, and if you're into cycling or other outdoor sports, you mightwant to consider supporting Lance Armstrong himself (and Nike, of course) with aLance 4 titanium cycling watch on your left.Additional ResourcesNike CyclingLance Armstrong FoundationLIVESTRING WristbandsMy reviewof the Nike HRM Triax Inspire Watch.
