ArmitronUnisex Digital Chronograph Nylon Strap Watch, 45-7004

This looks rugged and fits my write comfortably, I wear a lot of black, so this matches my outfits and its very lightweight--hardly notice it and the functionality is great even though I hardly use most of it. I've used this while working on cars, building sheds, etc...it can handle being knocked around just fine, no scratches on it. Awesome value for your money here.

This is one great watch. Because of its low price, I thought it might be cheap or silly looking, but I figured at this price, I'd try it. It's neither. I own a couple of dozen watches, including some close to high-end watches. This is now one of my favorite watches.It's comfortable to wear due to its light weight and velcro strap. With other watchbands you have only limited adjustments. I always find one hole too tight and the next one too loose. With this watch band, it's infinitely adjustable so it fits perfectly.And, unlike a lot of my watches, it's not only not heavy, it's positively lightweight. I barely even know its there. Compare that with some enormous watches that feel like tuna fish cans strapped to my wrist. I often wear watches that are 40mm wide or more, but this is one step smaller than that, and I'd forgotten how much more pleasant it is to wear a medium-sized watch.The dial is completely legible even at a moderate angle (not an extreme angle, though, since it's digital). It shows the time, the day of the week, and the date. Plus the seconds. Adjustment requires using the little booklet that came with it, but I think I almost have it memorized by now. It's similar to a Casio but a little more streamlined and just a little less "tech-y" looking. It looks rugged and purposeful, not silly at all. Some of my Casios make me look like a computer science major, and I definitely don't want that.It also has a light if you need it -- and maybe some other things I haven't discovered yet.And the price! Holy smokes! Where can you get a great watch that works well and is this lightweight and comfortable for this low a price? Not often. If you need a good, solid, reliable, comfortable, and good-looking watch, here it is.

This bargain watch works great as a simple timepiece and is comfortable to wear. The Velcro material facing outwards overlaps the outer strap, attaching itself to long sleeved clothing and tearing out tiny bits of fabric. With repeated wearings, this causes excessive wear on soft cuffs such as cotton material. Good for wearing with strong, smooth polyester or similar clothing, or short sleeves.

So far, I really like this watch. It's not too big but yet, very easy to read. The Velcro band take a moment to get used to however, by the end of the day, you'll forget you're even wearing it. Easy to setup and has all the functions you need and a VERY friendly price. I haven't submerged it in water (yet) so, I cannot say anything about that part. No need to spend a fortune, just buy this one and be done!

I collect watches and this is my first Armitron. I'm biased towards Casio but after reading the positive reviews and $14 price tag I decided to give it a try. The biggest negative I've read is the wrist strap isn't long enough, so lets get that out of the way first. I have a 7 inch wrist size and this fits perfectly and it's very comfortable. Judging from the remaining slack and distance from the Velcro and fold back loop, this appears to accommodate a maximum wrist size of 8 inches. Measure your wrist first before complaining about this watch, or any watch you buy for that matter. This watch isn't overly large or thick and I prefer that. The display is large and easy to read at all angles, and the EL backlight is uniform across the dial with all LED segments illuminated the same. The resin case has no imperfections and is very durable. The bezel is very thick resin, I don't think any of my Casio's have one this substantial. Setup is easy and intuitive, I didn't even need the manual, but then again I've been using digital watches for 40 years. I'll assume the water resistance to 330ft is correct, or at least somewhere in that range, but I don't swim or shower with my watches and can't verify that. Accuracy is great, I've only had it for a few days and after initially synching it with WWV it's still spot on at the 60 second mark.If you're in the market for a comfortable, good looking and accurate watch, you can't go wrong with this Armitron, especially at the reduced price. I'm glad I bought this.

Excellent quality Armitron watch with great features and good sizing. This brand needs more attention. In my opinion, it's on equal ground with Timex and Casio.

Great quality materials. Velcro is sturdy and long lasting. We've had no issues with functionality, wear and tear, or water resistance. Keeps time well and my son regularly uses the stop watch without issues. It's a stylish design without being overly bulky. Would purchase again, great value.

Good watch for the price, but display is crowded. For dates between 10 and 19, the 1 digit blends into the following number, for example 16 looks like a 6 and so forth. The seconds counter is placed right next to the date and is distracting. The velcro band is just right and easy to take the watch off and put it back on. Watch appears a bargain at $14, so I can live with what I see.
