Review of Disney Women's Mickey Mouse Expansion Band Watch #MU0850-MT

This is a very beautiful watch for the price.It is an official Disney "pie-eyed" Mikey product.The complaints I would have is that the band is a tiny bit tight for my wrist and makes me wonder if it's designed more for a teenager than for an adult. The only other problem that I had with this watch is that I have a hard time seeing the hands.The hands are very close to the color of Mikey's background.This could be because I have 45 year old eyes and just can't see that well anymore.Other than that, the watch is really cute.

Review of Nautica Men's BFC Chronograph Watch #N19521G

Hi all

I got the product at a bargain. While amazon was selling it at abt 137. Watch is almost a perfect buy. Price was decent. Weight is decent. Rubber strap is exactly what i want for this watch since it'll be my everyday watch. Size is about right for most guys. Lume is easily visible at night. Only problem i had with it was that my crown does not reset properly after setting the time. Have to push it back in at an angle. Not a major problem but worth noting. Still, definitely a recommended buy.

Cheers!!
Daryl

Review of AK Anne Klein Women's Automatic Swarovski® Crystal Accented Gold-Tone White Leather Watch #108440MPWT

I purchased this as a birthday gift for my wife. She loved it. Shortly after, we traveled to Aruba and did some window-shopping in several of the many high-end jewelry stores.Without exception, in every store we stopped, one of the clerks grabbed my wife's wrist, wanting to know who the designer was and where we bought it. One even asked us what we paid for it, not believing when we told them.All thought it was stunning.If you want an affordable and dependable watch and one that captures the eyes of the most discerning, this is it! She is happy in all aspects.

Review of Casio Men's Digital Sport Watch #W756B-1AV

I got it today and sent it back same day. The watch is made of cheap plastic and feels cheap. But that was not the problem, because I intended to use it only when I jog.
I tried the interval timer. I set up 3 intervals and started the timer. It worked pretty good with few "minor" issues. You can't stop or reset the timer. You can't even adjust the timer. My guess is that something was wrong with the reset button that made it irresponsive.
I'm getting Timex Ironman.

Review of Skagen Men's Swiss Multi-Function Black Leather Watch #583XLSLC

I saw this Skagen men's watch on another website, but was told to check Amazon. The watch was listed (on the other site) for $245.00 plus shipping. I found it on Amazon for $147.00 plus shipping...an incredible savings.Not only that, I received it the next day and didn't pay extra for fast delivery. That sealed the deal for me and gave me the confidence to deal with Amazon from now on. BTW, my husband loves the watch. It is elegant, but manly, as well as beautiful and classy, which is what Skagen is all about in my opinion. Many thanks to Amazon and Skagen!!

Review of Watch Band Expansion Metal Stretch Gold Plated Thin line fits 16mm to 20mm

The watch band is a good quality stretch band.The delivery was fast.
I placed the band on a watch,the color was good and it fit my wrist perfectly which would make the band on the short side as I have a small wrist. The watch is only 34mm lug to lug and the band OAL is difficult to measure once installed on the watch.You may want to check the OAL of the band before you buy.

Review of Spring Bar Pins Stainless Steel For Attaching Watch Bands To Watches Men Length 26 MM Thickness 1.5 MM Set of 2

Fossil didn't have this size in the either of the 2 area stores.They suggested that I send in my watch to their repair facility (for $35) and they could put a pin in and send it back.Um... wtf?No thanks, its just a pin.This deal rocked!

Product Description
Spring bars are used to connect your watch band to your watch or connect a watch buckle or clasp to your watch band. The ends of the pins are double flanged and have a spring at the end of the bar that allows for easy removal and installation. Our spring bar pins are made in stainless steel. Most watches use 1.5 mm thickness. We offer spring bars in many sizes and thickness. Sizes available 6 mm up to 30 mm. To find out which size you need, measure the length of your old spring bar or if you are replacing a pin on a leather band, the inside of the band usual has the size imprinted on it or you can measure the distance between the watch case lug to lug (the aera between where watchband goes). Most watch pins are measured in millimeter sizes. Use a ruler or a metric (mm) units to measures the pin or the distance between the case or lugs of the watch. Please select the correct size when ordering. Comes with installation instructions.

I purchased this watch as a mothers day gift. my mother is 81 years old and has difficulty seeing the tick marks or dots on some of her watches. so i looked for a watch that was elegant and had arabic numerals for hour markers.This was a winner, she hasn't taken it off since i gave it to her. The swarovsky crystals really sparkle in the sunlight.

This watch looks good and is easy to set up.The use of lcd's as a second hand is very clever.The drawback with this is that they are very hard to read even in bright light.I would recommend that the maker change the color of the lcd's for the second hand or use another medium to make them readable.

Overall, for the price, this watch has functions and looks that make it a good buy.

Review of Men's Genuine Italian Leather Watchband Brown 20mm Short Watch Band

This watchband is of high quality and came in a size - - 20mm Short - - that is always hard to find in stores that sell watchbands (if you can even find stores that still sell watchbands.) Only word of warning: all you get is the watchband; no pins and no little rod to help remove the old watchband, which is the only reason I didn't give it five stars.

Review of Men's Timex 48741 Stainless Steel E-Compass Watch with Stainless Steel Band

before buying this, I thought it would look cheap and gimmicky. Now that I hold it in my hand, the watch looks very sturdy and dependable.The compass works well, but you must position the face plate flat, or the directions will come out strange.

The rotating compass ring is a little loose, but then again, it's suppose to turn around.

Review of Hadley-Roma Men's 20-mm Black Stainless Steel Watch Bracelet #MB5918RA20S&C

This band is not worth the thirty six dollars I paid for it. I would have thought a band like this would go for about 10 to 15 dollars.It feels cheap.The edges are sharp against the skin and the sheet metal for the clasp is very thin and pointed and can give you the old bamboo shoot under the fingernail torture if you are not careful when opening it.The band attaches to the watch with just a couple of thin strips of metal.It comes with a couple of mock end pieces to cover this up but they also are made of very thin sheet metal.The blackness is just paint and is already wearing off in a couple of spots. I would have thought a band like this would go for about 10 to 15 dollars.

Review of Casio Men's Waveceptor Solar Atomic Ana-Digi Sport Watch #WV430DJ-1

If you want a watch that's good looking and always dead-accurate to the split second without any adjustments, you won't go wrong with this one.
Here are a few observations:
It's lightweight. It weighs about half as much as the other watches I own with stainless steel wristbands, making it very comfortable to wear. The face is large with a simple clean design, making it easy to read. I do need my reading glasses for the digital display.
It's nice looking and goes with just about any kind of outfit from casual to dressy. I wouldn't wear it to the beach or with a tuxedo, but it looks pretty good with just about anything between those extremes. In the display photo, it appears to have a blue-gray face, mine is gray with a faint hint of violet rather than blue. When you look at it you basically see a gray face, but it's a warmer gray than it appears on the web. I think the real thing looks better than the picture.
It's pretty easy to set up. If you've ever set a digital watch, this isn't much different. The main difference is that you have to set the time zone you're in for the correct hour to be displayed. Once that's done, you don't have to worry about it again unless you are traveling and want to change it to different time zones. It's not a difficult procedure. One thing I really like a lot is the watch automatically resetting itself for daylight savings time! Twice a year I have to go through the tedious ritual of changing all of the clocks and watches around the house. It's nice having one wristwatch I don't have to touch. The radio controlled timekeeping works like a charm. The only potential drawback would be traveling outside the range limit of the atomic radio signal. If you are a U.S. customer, the signal range is nearly all of North America. Even if you are out of range, the watch should still keep pretty accurate time and you can always adjust it manually if you need to.
I like the idea of the battery being recharged by solar power. It doesn't require a whole lot of light to do the trick. The specifics are in the instructions. One example is five minutes of direct sunlight equals one full day of power consumption. I got this a couple of months ago during the dead of winter and I live in Minnesota, so it's dark most of the time and the watch is always covered by long sleeves when I'm wearing it. To keep the battery fully charged, I set it near a window instead of putting it in a drawer when I'm not wearing it. In the summer, normal exposure to sunlight with short sleeves when I'm out and about during the day should be more than enough light for a full charge. I should also mention that it will run for months on a full charge without additional light exposure. I'd like to say never having to replace the battery is a great feature, but to my knowledge there's no such thing as a battery with an infinite number of charge/discharge cycles. Assuming I keep and use this watch for many years to come, the battery will eventually wear out, lose it's ability to hold a charge and will have to be replaced. I'm hoping that will be a very, very long time from now.
To sum it up; the watch is no fuss, totally accurate, good looking and comfortable to wear. I can't say enough good things about it!

Review of Tommy Bahama Relax Men's Beach Cruiser Polyurethane Watch #RLX1047

I've had this watch for about a week now.I bought it because I own another watch that was quite expensive and wanted something more casual and a little more rugged. This watch does that. Great looking watch.The band is very secure, comfortable and I love the color orange which is what drew me to this particular model. Other "Tommy Bahama" brand watches are much more expensive but personally it wouldn't have mattered at I was drawn to this one. The watch has received a lot of compliments already --definitely recommend it.

Review of AK Anne Klein Women's Automatic Swarovski® Crystal Accented Silver-Tone Black Leather Watch #108441MPBK

Gave it as a gift for my wife and she loves it.

Pros: Will never need a battery.

Cons: If you don't wear it for a couple of days it will stop. There are automatic winders available all over the net and in jewelry stores but most are just as expensive if not more expensive than the watch itself.

Review of Casio Factory G-Shock Diver DW-6600 (16mm, Black, 70378238)

I needed an exact replacement for my watchband. I found same on this site.
Most of the places that sell watchbands no longer have the correct replacements. They do not care. If something similar to this happens to you, go online. Look for original replacements.

Review of Swiss Military Hanowa Men's Conquest Watch #06-4035-04-007

The product was as listed and made a great gift. It was very nice and classy for what I thought Swiss Army produced. So, I was impressed. Since many places in my area do not carry this brand plus I was travelling during the holidays, this purchase was made so much easier using Amazon.

Thanks!

Review of Casio Men's Digital Sport Watch #W756-1AV

I was just looking for a simple sports watch with both a stopwatch and countdown timer, but this had a lot more than I expected (or needed). It has some timer features particularly for referees, which you may or may not find a use for. While all the features are easy enough to learn, having six modes means a lot of button presses (up to 6) to get back to the main mode. Fortunately, the main mode has a different beep sound, so you can keep pressing it quickly without looking until you hear it. It does what I need though with some complexity. Perhaps I will come to use the other features as well.

Looks: Nice; a bit thick for my taste (about 1/2"; spec says .58"), but it seems a lot of men's sports watches are like that these days
- The main picture shown above is misleading - there is NO blue backlight, but a cheapish orange LED that emits from left side over a dull gray background. The word "Illuminator" inscribed at the top of the watch is also misleading. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that supposed to be Casio's blue backlight technology? Maybe this watch used to have it, but not now. The LED works fine but does not look as nice
- Lens is not recessed so it is easy to scratch

Battery: 10-yr spec assumes use of any feature only once/week (a joke?)

Manual: Hard to read as it is very small and thick
- Get the free 3-page PDF manual which has all the info but is much easier to read, at the watch manual section of the casio site (enter 3100 for Module No.)

Stopwatch: I did not like it; it seems specialized for things like soccer
- Two counts displayed
- The Main count shows 100ths of sec but cannot be stopped at all (kind of useless). It can be set to beep after a specified elapsed time (like end of soccer regulation)
- The small count in corner (harder to read) acts like a standard stopwatch. No splits; just start, stop. It does not show 100ths of sec. In soccer, can use to count stoppage time

Preset countdown timer: Can choose from these times(min): 10,12,20,15,20,25,30,35,40,45
- Auto-repeat feature: If enabled, counts the number repeats (up to 99). If disabled, it just counts up after it hits zero and sounds the alarm, like most countdown timers do
- I like that the current time is in the corner so I don't have to switch modes to find out

Interval Countdown timer: You can use this as a regular countdown timer settable from 1 to 59 min, though I wish it could be set higher. There are also 8 additional timers which you can set individually. The watch will detect which timers are set and run them sequentially. You could use this for interval training or game timing.Auto-repeat can be set for the whole sequence.

World Clock: You can have this display the time in practically any other time zone. 3-letter codes for cities, and DST can be set separately for each

Alarm: Standard features, hourly chime

Other: Button beeps can be turned off

Overall: A decent watch, especially for the price. It's growing on me, I think.
