Good Watch by J. Marcus
Good looking watch. Sync’s easily in New Jersey, even in the basemsent and on my wrist. It has NO SECOND HAND. If you need that, don’t order it. The minute hand is set about 20 seconds too fast, as if it were reading on the trailing edge of the hand instead of the middle. The minute hand is supposed to move 1/3 of a minute every twenty seconds, so I may be able to fix that. I am going to see if I can set this in the manual. The minute hand is several millimeters too short. This is a bit away from the minute tick marks. This makes guessing the actual time a bit more difficult. This factor is not so great for an atomic watch.
I love this watch by Steven List
A few years ago, I was at the movies with a friend. Someone passed us and asked the time.
“About 7:15,” I said.
“Exactly 7:13,” my friend said.
“That’s about 7:15,” I said.
“Yes, but my watch synchronizes with the atomic clock every night, so I know that it’s EXACTLY 7:13!” he said.
“Does that mean you’re on time for meetings now?” I asked.
“No, but I know exactly how late I am!”
True story, and the reason I originally got this watch.
It does everything it says. The controls are a little tricky at first, but on a day-to-day basis, this watch rocks. Also, I volunteer as an usher at a local theater, and being able to use the illumination to see the time is very handy.
Overall, I think this is an excellent watch, keeps perfect time, and is exactly what I wanted. In fact, my first one broke after a few years - the point where the pin goes into the plastic on the housing broke - so I just bought another one!
Great value by R. May
I bought this watch primarily for it’s ability to update itself to the atomic time broadcast. The reciever works better than the Timex radio controlled watches and I like that. It has some features that I will never use like the time recorder and date alert. I am dissapointed that the back lighting cannot be set to come on whenever any button is pressed like the Timex’s. This makes it difficult to use any of the features in the dark except for just checking the time, forget setting the alarm in the dark. Overall a good watch at a great price.
