I ordered this watch as a present for my Dad and he is delighted with it.
The watch looks really good, he says, and he was worried about ‘how much I must have spent’, which I took as a compliment to the manufacturer.
The watch looks exactly as in the illustrations – looks heavy, strap well made, metal work looks expensive. The timer functions all work well, there is a 24-hour clock and stopwatches for minutes and seconds, as does the date window.
There are no instructions given with this watch, although there is an excellent write up on the manufacturer’s display on the Amazon page. Instead, you get a small card with an internet link.
This annoyed me a little, not least because, when accessing the link I was scammed by a rival firm, criminals obviously, who had a very similar url. Not the fault of Sekonda, but it means that anyone unfamiliar with the internet cannot access their own instruction. In fairness, the paperwork when downloaded is excellent, albeit too small for my father to read, which necessitated a trip to the print shop, and there is a great helpline.
On balance, I love the superb British design and the clear way the paperwork is set out. The watch was on offer for 43 when I bought it but would have been good value at the full price of 90.
If this watch continues to work well it will have been a lovely purchase.
Like this watch. Very good value for the money. I would have happily paid more for it. It’s a bit heavy but I like that. Shows the quality. The chronograph dials work perfectly. Just a bit difficult to read because they are small and I’m long sighted. Why only 4 stars? Because going by the condition of the box, this watch has been in a warehouse for a long time and there was no plastic tab under the battery. The watch has been running the whole time it was in storage. So I’ve a feeling I’m going to have to replace the battery in a year or two.
Very nice indeed and the colour scheme is well put together too and nicely complemented. Overy Very happy with the watch and its a lovely edition to my collection 🙂 thank you
well made good quality and good pricing very nice looking watch ,waterproof and with good dials easy to operate and use well pleased.as it was a 40th wedding anniversary present from my wife.
I cashed in some Amazon vouchers for my birthday as a present from my younger son. This watch looked good and with a small addition from self, represented excellent value for money and so far I am pleased with the purchase and looking forward to wearing it on a more regular basis.
Only had a few days, and due to lockdown and not going out, cant comment really, first impression on unboxing, the watch looked good, bit disappointed when I picked it up to look properly ,as it has no weight to it at all, and to be honest the case looks like gold coloured plastic, but what do you expect for the price, lets just hope it dose what its says on the web site when I eventually get to ware it properly.
