5 Stars Great watch plus
I purchased this watch for myself and the women’s version for my wife. We have been extremely happy with them. They give you so much information about your workout that it almost makes it fun.

4 Stars Great!
My husband is an avid runner and loves the watch! He had to adjust the stride length a few times to get the most accurate results, but otherwise it’s an awesome watch.

5 Stars Excellent customer service!
I’ve only had this watch for a few days and it has worked great so far. I am not an expert at configuring pedometers and everything else the watch does so I had to call Tech4O customer service. To my surprise a very nice lady answered at the beginning of the second ring. We had a great conversation and she helped me program all necessary functions on my watch. I had dialed the 800 number from my speaker phone because I thought I would be on hold forever, navigating through prompts, and praying for a pulse. But no, I had a surprisingly refreshing experience with a very nice helpful person. I highly recommend this company and product.

5 Stars Great Gift
My husband and I bought this watch for our son in law for Christmas. He used it that very day to run with and was very excited about all of the information that was available to him. We enjoyed giving him something that he really liked and could use.

4 Stars I wish this were metal
Plastic watches feel cheap. Its not their fault, they just do. This watch is like an ugly car with a race car engine. I love the features. I appreciate the automatic reset for counting distance and I am impressed with the accuracy. Its amazing that this watch can tell the difference between walking and running and that it is accurate even if I have my hands in my pocket instead of swinging around. I haven’t used the speed function, because I’m not that fast and by the time I think of that function, I’m just standing and my speed is zero. The same is true with the calories counter, although I just think that’s worthless as a feature anyway.The included manual seems cramped and poorly written, but the online guide is great. Again, I wish there was a version of this watch in metal.

Armitron Women's 45/6962SIL Instalite Black Digital Sport Watch

Overall Rating:

Retail Price: $24.99

Amazon Price: $14.99

The Armitron Womens Instalite Black Digital Sport Watch gives active women everywhere a simple yet stylish sport watch to wear while training or following their exercise programs.

When it comes to intense training, wearing watches that are stylish are usually frowned upon as they are more prone wear down due to the stress of continuous physical movements. The Armitron Easy to Read sports watch changes that by being constructed from highly durable materials that can withstand all sorts of movement from your training. It is even waterproof for up to 50 meters (165 feet).

This durability does not compromise the Armitron Women’s Instalite Black Digital Sport Watch’s elegant design. It still comes in an elegant black and silver tone bezel design, and has an easy to read digital display that illuminates at the touch of a button.

Despite the functionality and durability, the Armitron Womens Instalite Black Digital Sport Watch still maintains the beauty that you want your sports watches to have.

1 Star Do not buy this watch
This watch is very pretty for a women’s digital. It is easy to set and the numbers are easy to see and the light makes it just perfect! However, when I received it yesterday, the date function worked but the time function did not. It kind of makes me wonder if this is the same watch that keeps getting shipped out to other customers….or if it truly is a bad design…..

2 Stars Doesn’t work
I received it but didn’t have time to figure out how to set it, etc. When I went back to it a few days later, it wasn’t working at all. I’ll be returning it, which is a shame because it is so hard to find a small digital watch for women.

5 Stars i tell the truth
if you’re looking for a cute, teeny weeny, digital watch. this is for you. myrna in rego park, new york.

4 Stars HAS CHANGEABLE BATTERIES BUT ONCE YOU TRY TO CHANGE THEM IT WON’T WORK PROPERLY
Hello: I have had several Armitron digital watches over the past 5 years. The batteries will work for about a year then peter out which is to be expected, I guess. I bought new batteries, opened the back took out the old battery and put everything back as it was found but the watche(s) never ran properly after that. I took one to the watch counter at Walmart and they changed the battery for me but with the same result. Bottom line….. Expect to have to buy a new one of these every year. I keep returning to them though because as one of the other reviewers said, it’s hard to find a small, un-clunky looking digital watch for women that’s shock and water resistant. This particular model does not have an alarm either which is one feature I miss.

5 Stars outstanding watch
Keeps good time, easy to see, seems relatively durable. What more can you ask for?
