2.0 out of 5 stars just a cheap watch w/ a compass, July 27, 2003

i purchased this watch pretty much to save myself from buying one for about double the cost. when i received the watch i found out why:
the band is what you would find on a very cheap watch / the box makes reference to being made in germany, however the watch clearly states, "made in china" / the directions were poorly translated / and the sealer of the deal for me was that the mode button was very poor - sometimes it would advance two modes ahead on one press, other times it wouldn't advance at all.
i'm definitely returning it
TAKE CARE!

1.0 out of 5 stars Terrible, October 6, 2003

Bought this a year ago today actually.

First of all...the band broke after one month...then...the casing started to wear showing that the casing is actually painted on...that is not the true color of the casing...and then...this weekend while on a hunting trip I noticed that no matter what direction I was headed...it always said NE. Luckily a friend brought a compass and we were able to find our way back to the truck...and ultimately me back to my PC to write a review for this terrible product.

So...consider this you warning...and BUY SOMETHING ELSE!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Boy scouts, get a real compass, February 9, 2004

I bought this thing for about $20 plus shipping from Homeland. It has a 12/24 digital display, which is easy to see, it tells yopu what day it is, and that part is easy to read. It has an alarm that has never failed to wake me up, and a light you can press to see what time it is at night.
I bought it, however, for a trip to France, as I thought the compass, the light and the alarm would be really useful. The compass, no matter how many times I "calibrate" it, by spinning it around clockwise (it recommends 3x) is never accurate, not in Miami, not in Paris and not in the Pyrenees, either.
The batteries (it has two) are not the most common, but are readily available, and I had to replace them after one month. Maybe I used that light too much. The compass ceases to display first (it never 'works'), then the face gets dimmer and dimmer and goes blank.
