Perfect for my intended use
I work in law enforcement and needed a cheap watch that I don’t worry about scratching or getting destroyed in a fight. This is a tough little bugger and keeps on going. Solid watch if your looking around

What a surprise, Very nice watch
I was really surprised how much I liked this watch. I have Casio Pathfinders and G-Shocks, so I walked in with low expectations, and it has exceeded every one. Way, way impressed for a sub-$20 watch. It does lose a little time, but it loses less than my Casio DW6900.I love the large numbers and layout of the face (Casio really should take note). No extra clutter, or needless blinky stuff. Simple, effective, crisp, just a great watch. 50+ mm across, large, but definitely wears smaller. Band is absolutely fantastic (Casio should take note). Every Casio I have the band adjustment holes falls in between my wrist size, so it is either too tight or loose. This one has two hole locations that work, thought that was interesting.My main concern walking into this watch was the waterproofness. So I hydro-modded (Google it - filled the case with silicone oil). It makes it waterproof to a depth that I will (should) never go. Shower, Swimming, Ocean...been there done that...excellent. I do realize that this is more work than most want to do on a ‘inexpensive’ watch, but I already had the stuff to do it, so…excellent outcome.Really like the hour chime. It is not the normal beep-beep that all my watches have. It is a longer, single beep with a nice medium tone. I didn't think that I would like it, but I really do.I have not abused it, but I have used it ‘willingly’ for everyday life. It shows no signs of wear and still looks great. So it handles the ’normal’ beats and bangs beautifully.Dislikes - The viewing angle (up and down) to see the numbers is narrow. Viewing the watch at much of an angle (more than 30-45 deg) makes the numbers hard to read. So I have to turn it all the way to me to be able to read it. Not a big deal, but the viewing angle side to side is so much more.The light is great in very dark. Hard to see, kind of ineffective in anything else. Still not a show-stopper.One thing I do miss on this watch is a Countdown timer, but Casio dumped that years ago. Well...and the barometer, but that is a lot to ask from a sub-$20 watch.Again, surprisingly great watch. It is getting a lot of wrist time.

Best watch for construction and mechanic work
I've had this watch for over a year and it's been the best investment under $15 I've made in a long time. I work in construction and I do a lot of mechanic work with this watch, and it always gets beat up. But at the moment it only has small surface scratches. The. Scratches never bother me that's how small that are. I always deal with dirt and when its hand washing time .. all the dirt comes off. It just never sticks to the watch its weird. Dont let the price make you think this is crap ... I'm about to buy another in a different color band. Also what's weird and cool. the layout is weird and cool. I look or my watch for it's time first and I like how it's the biggest. Then I look for the day .... I always remember the date but always forget the week day so. They decided to make the the week day 2nd biggest. Its weird but this watch us always easy on the eyes when looking for information. Just stop looking and buy this damn watch hahaha

I like the band with it's double hole locks
It's a decent watch for the $13 price tag. Please take notice... it is HUGE. It's much larger than I expected. Notably larger than the Timex Ironman it's replacing. This is OK for me, but some might feel it's too big. I like the band with it's double hole locks. The light works fine and it's pretty easy to setup the time and date, etc.My major complaint about this watch is that it have very poor viewing angles. You have to look at it at a nearly perfect 90 degree angle (straight at it) in order to see the time, meaning you have to twist your wrist towards you every time you need to look at the watch as it's not readable from a more natural viewing angle. A much more minor complaint is that the buttons are are easily pressed on accident. They take very little pressure to activate, so I'll look at my watch and after twisting my wrist so I can see the LED screen, it shows the stopwatch instead of the time, because the button was accidentally depressed during some point in my daily activities.Really, for the price, it's a good watch if you can get past the poor viewing angle of the LED screen.

Very good product.
I will say that the product is very good, for me, an old man. Reasons being:) very easy to read) very easy access buttons to set functions) very easy to set functions) very easy to read bright nighttime illumination) dual latch buckle on a soft, tough wristband that has enough holes from end to end to fit ANY wrist.Would recommend and will buy again.

Excellent value for money
I chose this watch as a test before buying a more expensive watch mainly for the stop watch function but also the clarity of the display had been described on other reviews as being clear enough to see without the need for glasses, which is critical for those of us that struggling to see as we get older. I was more than satisfied that I can certainly see the time without the need for glasses, the stop watch is easy to use and will be great when out running and the light for nigh time vision works fine. I couldn't really comment on the water resistance aspect as I certainly won't be jumping in any swimming pools with it on. The general set up of the watch for time, date and use of the various modes was very straight forward with no need for the use of instructions, so again great for me.

A superb watch
A nice watch which sets off a little alarm every hour. The stop watch is easy to use and I would recommend this product to anyone.

Impressive.
Bought this as my ‘everyday’ watch and my eyesight is failing a bit these days. It keeps great time, auto changes with seasonal time changes (still don’t know how) and the display is easy for an old timer like me to read. Fantastic VFM too.

Accurate time piece
Rather bulkier than I had expected, but it seems to keep accurate time, and that's what it's for. It's also easy to read and not to difficult to set. I find it can be switched accidentally to a different mode,perhaps because the setting buttons are quite prominent, but a press of the appropriate button returns it immediately to the required display. I find it value for money, and the back is ecured by 4 screws, which should make battery replacement easy.

Looks and feels a lot more expensive
Feels and looks a lot more expensive watches. Fits my 12 year old grandson a treat. He’s always late saying I didn’t know what the time was so I thought I would get him a cheep watch when this arrived I was made up, ok it’s not a £150 Cassio but it looks and feels like a decent watch, not tried it in water but at 50 meters water resistant it should be ok. A great little (not so at 50mm) watch at a great price
