I loved this watch. My dad found the instructions in the plastic holder that the watch was on. I tried to read the instructions and finally had to ask my mom. My mom found that the instructions were wrong. Other then that the watch is GREAT!

I really like the watch - the display is good and the features are nice. Especially the countdown timer, which most watches don't have. The only problem has been catching things on the velcro (which always happens with me), and the top silver part came off a little bit ago - but that's most likely because I wear out watches pretty quickly, and I've had this one for at least two years.

First of all, the watch is perfect - it's beautiful, perfectly sized, lightweight, strap is cool and light and perfectly sized as well, and has many, many features that are awesome!

It includes time mode (including date and DAY of week), chronograph (stopwatch), countdown timer (what I need for my ADHD, and the use of the Promodoro technique), hourly chime (on or off), 2nd time zone (I put my parents'), and finally ONE ALARM (that can be set for any calendar date and time, in other words 5 days from now and whatever time you want). Oh, also, includes an option to switch between military and regular time with push of one button.

Manual I used is found at [...]

I also have to say that I am QUITE DISTURBED and DISAPPOINTED in Armitron, though, for their choice in watch designs between the sexes. Armitron has decided to give the men's watch the elaborate options of 5 different alarms while the women's of the exact same style allows only 1 alarm. Ha - does anyone believe that women don't have just as much going on in their lives and more?

That is absolutely ridiculous and sexist. And, no, I'm not joking! I am highly pissed because I wanted 5 alarms!! I should not have supported this company for such a stupid decision. But I really wanted a watch with hourly chime and could only find this one.

Regardless. Shame on you, Armitron. WTH were they thinking?

Anyway, write more reviews people, so we can all make more informed decisions about our purchases. Without educating each other, the company is the only one that benefits.

I'm not at all happy. The part of the watch housing that holds the strap on broke the second day I had the watch. It isn't a part that can be repaired and the break means I can't simply replace the band.
