Dakota Digital Mini Clip, Alarm, Stopwatch, Timer and Dual Time, Quality Fob and Pocket Watch, Premium Durability Outdoor Gifts for Men and Women, Tactical Digital Clip on Watch

Arrived on time in good order

My wife got the watch for Father’s Day and it’s brilliant. Has a nice wight to it and feels nice in the hand

This item can’t be bought in Britain and consequently has to go through customs etc and took a while to arrive. That said, I’m pleased with it. The watch comes in a metal case inside a cardboard exterior box. The first thing I noticed is that it is a solid metal device with a quality feel. The glass appears to be mineral which is good and the device is thicker and heavier than I expected. Again this is all good from my viewpoint. The display is fairly crisp with good contrast. The features are pretty well intuitive but a user guide is included underneath the watch holder. I am pleased with my purchase and am sure it will attract comment from people as it is attractive in a modern way.

Edit: There's a second battery!Turns out both I and the jeweller mentioned below are just a bit dense. After prying off the back of the case, remove the large CR2032 cell battery, pop out the carrier, and hidden underneath is a tiny SR626 battery that powers the movement. A little fiddly to get everything lined up (requires bending out the little metal tabs to get good contact between the button, the carrier and the LED and have it all fit snugly together) but it's now working perfectly again.Helpful tip 1: when repositioning the plastic carrier, hold the button in and line up the indented metal tab onto the end of the protruding rod, otherwise the carrier can sit askew and stop the LED from working.Helpful tip 2: the notch in the removable case back must line up over the button or it won't snap back into place.I've given this an extra star, but still 4/5 as the watch glass on the first one I bought kept falling out. Also, I feel Dakota should really include instructions on changing the movement battery in the box. Glad to be able to keep this one going for a bit longer though.Original: I've bought 2 of these in about 5 years. Each has died after a couple of years. As others have said, battery replacement makes no difference, red LED still works. The local jewellers said the mechanism broke both times, but is prohibitively expensive to replace given the price of the watch. Unable to return to manufacturer under warranty as they're based in US. Nice while it lasts, but doesn't last forever.

I bought my first Dakota mini clip watch a few years ago and used it with all my bags as I went out and about. When it finally broke it wasn't easy to find a replacement in the UK, so I was delighted to see Amazon had them back in stock. My ordered mini clip arrived quickly and is just as good as my previous one. They are easy to unclip and the watch face is clear to read. Happy with purchase.

Very nice product.

Really useful for walking and cycling, but unfortunately it stopped working after 4 months. There does not appear to be any customer support in the UK, so in practice no warranty . Also, there is no advice about replace the battery yourself and again no service offered in the UK. Shouldn't really be sold under these conditions.

Neat Carabiner watch, useful to hang from waistband.
