Nice design touches in Instinct

I'd like to hear what others have found in the area of nice surprises in the design of the Instinct. Two that come to mind are:

- In the sunrise/sunset display, you can press Up and Down to scroll through dates to see the sunrise/sunset times for each day.

- The outermost loop that holds the watch band tail in place has a little nubbin on the inside of it, to fit into a hole in the watch band to keep it secure.

For me, the best design touches for the Instinct is the decision to use Transflective MIP screen for the lightweight device, which provide us clear display plus long battery life. In fact, the backlight can be turned off and is needed only in low-light environment, further extending the already superb standard battery life.
