Perfect watch for weekends.

I bought this watch to wear on weekends when I'm working in the yard or in my woodworking shop. Unfortunately I'm getting attached to some of the features that this watch has that my nicer watch is missing! This beauty has all of the basic timer, count-down, alarm, dual time-zone features, and it is cheap!
Minor issues:
* The lettering around the plastic case wears off pretty quickly- I've put it through about a month of moderate use and the letters are coming off. It doesn't bother me a bit, but it might bother others.
* Contrary to the product description, The backlight is definitely not electro-luminescent (EL, Indiglo, etc). It is a small orange LED in the corner of the screen. It comes on for about 5 seconds when you press the light button. It's plenty bright and everything on the screen is easily readable, but it is not a smooth, even glow like the Indiglo. Again, doesn't bother me a bit, but it is incorrect in the product description. |

I liked the color and the design I have not tested at all
CONS: the light is short and orange I thought it was white or something... |

I use this watch while playing golf as it is easy to read and use. The edge of the watch protects the plastic face plate from scratching which is excellent as I have a tendency to scratch the surface. Easy to read the time as well as tell the seconds that pass as the dial "counter" makes it easy to time in ten second intervals. Overall this is an excellent watch for sporting activities.

Cheap plastic

| This is a cheap plastic watch. It looks cheap and feels cheap. The only way it could be cheaper is if it were made out of molded cardboard, like an egg carton. The buckle is plastic, so I expect it will snap eventually, and then the watch will be useless unless the band can be replaced--which I've read is not possible. I paid less than sixteen buck for it so I guess I can't expect too much, but still I'm a bit disappointed. Ironically, I bought this model because the battery life is rated at five years; if the battery does last five years it will probably be the only thing on this watch that does. |
