Review of Nike Men's Nate Watch #C0018-008

I just received my second delivery of this watch.The first one i purchased from ebay, and after 2 days it went haywire.I put in a what I thought was a new battery from Radio Shack, but the watch was still acting weird.The display was showing some jibberish and it made weird noises.I returned the watch and bought this one from Amazon, opened up the box and it was dead.I ended up metering the battery and it read .12 volts.It is supposed to read 1.5 or more volts.I also metered the battery from Radio Shack.That one only read .42 volts.Did I return the other watch for no reason?Did it just need a new battery?Turns out, Yes.I returned the weak Radio Shack battery, exchanged it for one that read 1.54 volts in the store, brought it home and the watch worked fine.I've read other reviews on this watch and i've seen similar descriptions of wacky this happening after a period of time.This watch needs at least 1 volt of power to work right.Nike came out with this watch at the end of 2005 and most of the batteries will be dead if you buy one now.Just have some spare batteries around to enjoy this watch.Buy this watch if you are looking for a comfortable, simple, durable, wicked cool, and affordable timepiece.
