My contribution to multiple time zone. Maximum of 5 time zones. Can choose to change the date to another time zone.

I had a B&O i3 until it spoilt lately. IMHO totally not worth it. I dunno why all the reviews said it was comfortable etc, to me it was quite painful to wear. Keep also problem, and the cables keep getting entangled with the earphones *(@!&$*(#$*()@!&#$@

quite a blessing it spoilt. used the earphones that came with my iphone and found how comfortable it actually is.

My iPhone and Nexus earphones are still BNIB. Only use earphones while watching movies at night in the room.

Not so much about accuracy of the date but personally find the date feature deficient aesthetically and functionally.

Too small and feels as though the date feature was thrown in as an after thought and not integral to the overall watch design..

B&O e design are Swee but for the price there are much better earphones available.
Earphones keep getting spoilt, last me about 1-2years and the cables or connectors will have connectivity problem. Now I get with replaceable cables.

For me, I have to use IEM's for work, so really have no choice. And they need to be as sonically accurate as possible do that I can make critical musical decisions on the fly. Plus they have to be comfortable for 3 hour wears.

Custom IEM's solve most of these problems.

But, yeah, most "prosumer" earphones aren't really worth the money.

oh... i don't set the dates on my watch as i change them almost daily and use them only for time. plus the number of different movement types i have - just don't need to risk it (hint:7750)

i like the date window placement on the maranez, that allows for the normal 3 o'clock marker to be present. this works because of the obscure black background date wheel makes it kinda disappear from view.
