This watch is all that its cracked up to be! The only thing I don't like about it, is that its easy to change modes by inadvertently bumping the bottom left button - but its just as easy to put it back. It's well worth the cost, especially with a 10-year battery life and a 1-year warranty.

I'm really pleased with this purchase. Accuracy is about two seconds per week and it is easy to reset. From past experience I agree with others that the band can be expected to break after about a year; however it will take a standard 20mm watchband. I like the fabric wrap-around "The Band" by Chisco which costs about seven dollars. In fact I swapped the band when I first got this watch because I prefer the wrap-around style. With a ten year battery, stop watch, calendar, easy-to-read display, back-light, and low price what's not to like?

Great, low cost watch. I like the relative small size and thiness, as I have a small wrist. And with the flat crystal, it doesn't tend to get scratched, like the models that have a slight protruding convex crystal.

I just wanted a basic watch, that I wouldn't mind getting bashed up while camping or doing yard work. This does the job and is comfortable to wear.

An OK watch for the $. If I had tried the watch on before purchasing, I likely would not have purchased, mainly because the 4 buttons on the sides of the watch are too small and are recessed, making it difficult to operate. Also, the watch light is cheap, lights up from the side of the screen instead of backlighting the entire screen. On the + side, the watch is full featured, durable and inexpensive.

I just ordered this watch for the third time in 2 years. It has all the features I want, especially dual time zones that I like for frequent international and coast to coast travel. The reason I keep replacing it is that at least one of the 4 pillars holding the pins that attach the band snaps off about every 6 months. The same thing has happened to my more expensive stainless steel watch after 5 years so now I just buy this cheap one every time it happens. I like the back-light, the alarm, the size, and the light weight. I have to adjust the time about once every 2 months when it gets about 15 to 30 seconds off.

The item was exactly as described and fit my desired criteria just fine. I work with electronics and electricity and need a slim non-conductive watch with non-protruding buttons and an easy to read display. Nothing fancy, I mainly need to see the time; having the date is fine but not necessary. The watchband is extremely cheap and flimsy. I don't foresee it lasting very long at all, however I *will* be replacing it before then anyway. Interestingly, replacement bands cost more than I paid for the watch!

I got this for my son who is 12. it arrived and we set it up without looking at the instructions. He was very pleased with the watch and the functions on it. He wears it all the time now and will not take it off. This is a great starter watch for people and would recommend it to anyone.

If you need a highly visible 24 hour digital display watch then this model will fit your needs and wrist.

Watch is very good for my purpose. Fastening the cheap band is a waste of energy. As soon as I find a proper expansion band for it, it will be perfect!
