The Cadex 12 alarm watch does all that it claims and is a good watch for the price. Be sure to shop around: paying more than $59 for this watch is not worth the price.

Unfortunately, there are two functions I failed to look for, which are critical for my lifestyle! This watch has NO BACKLIGHT function and no actual TIMER. For a watch that has 12 alarms, it is likely to be dark at some point. So to not have any light functions was a big drawback for the money. Also, if you use timer functions frequently, setting an alarm is cumbersome if you simply wish to time an activity on occasions - then clear it.

Also, everywhere online I looked, it is only available in black. Although there is a purple version shown on some websites, it doesn't seem to be available.

This watch seems to be aimed at an elderly target audience, but I am using the watch to make critical life changes and need reminders when to wake, retire, exercise, meds and eat snacks and meals. I am a night person who is transitioning to days and the watch does help me be more on my new schedule.

The text function is pretty cool - you can type in anything that applies to your need for an alarm. So this doesn't have to be JUST a medical watch. It could also be used for meetings, appointments, daily program reminders. Even the info fields could hold non-medical info you might need or want.

My mother-in-law has Parkinsons and this watch works great for her. It reminds her when and what medication to take and also will store all her medications and doctors in the watch. Thanks!

Not bulky and very light.
Extremely Easy to Program.
Has the feel of a quality watch.
The buttons respond instantly.
The screen is clear and the letters and numbers are easy to see.
The alarm is loud enough for anyone without a hearing problem.
The only draw-back is that the screen does not have a light;
therefore, you will not be able to read the alarm message in the dark.

But I still give it a 5 because I was not going to let a "LIGHT" problem keep me from conveying what I feel about this nicely crafter product.

Mother in law has diabetes and this has definately helped her to remember to eat every two hours and also has the added security of holding her medical information in case she is alone if something happens. Very easy to set up and use. I was worried that there would be too many buttons and she would be confused. But this watch is so easy to navigate that even she couldn't mess it up.

I LOVE THE IDEA OF A 12 ALARM WATCH. THEY ARE VERY HARD TO FIND. I HAVE BEEN USING THEM FOR YEARS.
THE ONLY PROBLEMS THAT I HAVE IS THAT I WISH THE WATCH LOOKED NICER FOR WOMEN AND THAT THE CONTROL BUTTONS FALL OFF AFTER AWHILE. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OF THEM.

I'm a type 1 diabetic and ordered this watch so I'd have several daily alarms reminding me to check my blood sugar and eat. I have pretty good hearing but could not hear the alarm beep. The watch was useless to me so I returned it and ordered another brand that has vibrating alarms - the Vibralite 8.

My husband is very sick and has to take numerous pills 6 different times a day. He would forget during the day while I was at work. Now, he puts on the watch and it reminds him. Best purchase since he became ill. Would reommend it to anyone who needs help remembering to take medication.

Company is not reliable. Watch broke two weeks after the one yr warrantee was up. I wrote company to no avail. Save your money, buy an alarm clock!
