User Ratings and Reviews
4 Stars Simple, good looking, inexpensive, casual watch
The title kinda says it. The watch looks like its picture, fits well on my wife’s slender wrist, and tells the time clearly.
2 Stars Look for a better cheap watch
I liked the watch as a cheap, practical sports watch with a decent alarm function. Setting the alarm wasn’t intuitive, and it was easy to accidentally activate the stopwatch, etc. But I would have lived with that for the price, because all I *really* wanted was a watch and a daily alarm reminder.
But the strap broke suddenly (with no trauma–just fell off one day) after only a couple of months of light wear. Or more accurately, the plastic notch that holds the strap on broke, which means you can’t fix it. And of course I didn’t bother to keep the packaging for a $15 watch.
I’m not being a price snob–I don’t think I’ve ever spent more than $30 on a watch, but I do expect them to hang in there for at least a year. So I’m back to my old (alarmless, alas) metal watch from Target that I’ve had for 5 years. No more plastic for me.
5 Stars Comfy watch
I bought this watch a few years after giving away my Timex Ironman (to someone who needed it more than I did), trying to find one I liked as well, and I have to say this one fits the bill. It’s very comfortably sized, the band doesn’t pinch, and best of all, it’s proven itself to be very watertight, and has suffered no damage from being worn while bathing two small children.
5 Stars don’t spend a nickle
I purchased this inexpensive watch for a trip to Hawaii and a lot of snorkeling. A total waste of money. Went on the fritz the first day of being in and out of the water. Ended up in the garbage can at our rental.
