Umbro U887A Ana-Digi Watch

I'm wearing a sporty watch today, but have been lazy most of the day...

So far, I've blogged some of the main sports brands like Adidas, Nike, and Converse, but today it's the first from another. This time it's a watch by British brand Umbro.

Umbro are a sportswear and football equipment supplier from Manchester, but are now a subsidiary of the American company Iconix Brand Group (since 2012) after earlier being owned by Nike. This watch came out in 2011 (maybe a little earlier), so was during the Nike owned era.

The watch is a model U887A and is an ana-digi design. The dial is a 3 hand dial with a red seconds hand. The digital display is split into 3 areas with a main time display at the bottom. In the top to right is a round display which fills over a minute (with 30 segments that flash twice before the next one comes on). The top left has a 2 line display with day and date.
It is 5 bar water resistant, and has a stopwatch, alarm, and timer. Between each mode, the round display shows a spinning animation before the new mode appears. There is an el-backlight with three colours - blue for the time, green for the date, and red for the circle.
