I bought this watch because it was inexpensive and had an alarm. It continues to be my favorite watch.

I wondered if the band would hold up to wear and tear. It has held up well showing little wear or dirt.

I bought it in blue and it matches many colors surprisingly well. It keeps perfect time, the alarm is reliable and I get compliments on how it looks. It is not like the usual alarm sport watch that is bulky and ugly.

I have even forgotten to change it and even had it on with dress clothes. Any other sport watch I would have taken off and hidden away but I wore this one anyway.

This watch is a great bargain.

Pros:
- Greats sports watch
- Great features: Item displays the date and time (including seconds), has a stopwatch, alarm clock, timer, and 2 time zones. (You can make your watch function according to 12 or 24 hr)
- Water resistant up to 50m
- Alarm beeps for a minute and turns off (can be good or bad depending on the person) and you can set it once and it repeats daily... Some people might complain about how you can only set one alarm and how the alarm might not be noticeable or there is NO snooze feature...
- Very cheap

Cons:
- Band is a bit childish (it's a sports watch with a 4-leaf clover band) and can get dirty over time...
- Buttons might be kind of hard to press at times
- INDIGLO light turns on and fades over time - I believe this product would be better if you press it once and it kept the light on and press to turn it off... However, the light slowly fades within a few seconds of pressing the button...
- annoying sound produced when clicking on a button -it'd be cool if the company could have a feature to turn off the sound when pressing on a button (it's a small beep -which isn't too bad but it's noticeable when you're trying to keep quiet)

When I bought this watch from Amazon almost a year ago there were several very positive reviews. Mine keeps great time and was perfect for a European trip that included a lot of train travel. I set it for the 24-hour time. The main complaint was the band getting dirty. It comes off the watch and is easily washed. Mine was pretty dirty and I super sprayed it with Spray and Wash and let it sit a long time. Then I put it in a plastic storage container with a little dish soap and swished it around strongly. I had to rub a couple especially dirty spots before rinsing it under the faucet and setting it out to dry. My watch looks brand new!

This is a fine product, on the whole. However, I was disappointed in the timer feature. I bought it to use while exercising. Since it has a timer, I thought I could set it for 30 seconds and when it would run out, it would reset to 30 seconds unless I changed it. Unfortunately you have to reset it manually every time. That is fine for some applications, but now I need to buy another new watch. The Timex Ironman has been recommended. I'll try that. But in general, this is a good value.

This was a purchase for my 10 yr old daughter. She loved it. It was easy to program and set up to her liking. Very durable and a great design for any one.

This watch looks considerably different than its picture online. The white part around the face is sparkley and the blue is VERY bright. Looks like something you might wear while in your bermuda shorts in Hawaii. The watch itself works great, though it does have the annoying feature of beeping every time you push a button.

I've had this watch sense the middle of 1st grade and am now half way through my 6th grade year. It just ran out of battery. It is a little dirty but is held up great!I love this watch. I wouldn't have to take it off to go swimming with my friends during the summer, and when i went on vacation with my family. I din't have to worry about it.
It was also comfortable. I would only take it off when i had to. I've had this watch 5 years and all I need to do is replace the battery. The light was great and would fade in and out so it wouldn't be bright all of the sudden.Plus in 1st grade it didn't take me long to figure out and you would get used to it.This amazing watch shows time, the date, seconds, and day of the week. Plus when i got this i thought "When the band runs down,I can replace it!" It was a great though. One thing though: the band didn't run down enough to get a new band, but if it did i could replace it.
I love this watch and would recommend it to any girl:sporty, or not.

It is fine for a casual watch. I have trouble with my band coming undone. I have very small wrists and it is loose on me and tends to come unfastened.

Very comfortable, easy to read and easy to use. I did not take it underwater, so I don't know if there is any issues being truly waterproof.

I got this to wear while running. It's certainly not the nicest watch I could find, but this display is very clear, it keeps time well, and the functions (timer, alarm) work. It's nice to find one without a plastic strap, as I find those chafe. The battery has lasted more than a year. I would recommend this, especially for exercise.
