The hands are, in fact, what make the Instinct Crossover special, as the memory-in-pixel screen lies under the analog hands. They're the reason for this watch’s particular thickness, adding another few millimeters onto the already-chunky. When the watch’s smart functionalities are not in use, the watch’s hands point to the correct time.
It’s still a smart watch in the technical sense, but most of the non-training-related smart tech was stripped away. It’s still got all the Instinct 2’s usual five-star smarts, including organization of training into heart rate zones, heat mapping of route based on your heart rate throughout, and a Body Battery figure to minimize overexertion. This last one, in particular, has been useful during my marathon training, ensuring I take the rests necessary to perform at peak capacity.
