I keep a cheap watch for when I'm working in the home etc. so as not to mark more expensive watches.This one keeps perfect time so far & looks quite good.The strap is obviously plastic to look like leather & is a bit stiff but what can you say for 49 pence. Shipping brings it up to £3.50 but still what value.Not sure how long it will last.

Where do I start? This watch was described as having a leather strap. However the strap looked suspiciously man-made when it arrived, consisting of a thin layer of ‘leather’ glued and stitched to a firmer man-made backing material. While I did not want to unpick the stitching on the strap (as would have been necessary to to identify the upper material definitively) the bands on the strap which hold the loose end in place were quite obviously made from flimsy plastic-coated fabric, which looked identical to the upper layer on the main strap and which I guessed wouldn’t last long. Nonetheless I decided to keep the watch; I liked the look of it and it was very cheap, so I was willing to settle for a few months’ use. Within two days of first putting on the watch it had lost more than 20 minutes in time. Thinking I must have dislodged the time-setting knob in some way I reset it to the correct time, but again it continued to lose time over the day. The final straw was when I pulled up my sleeve to check the time and the watch just fell on the floor, one end of the strap having become detached from the watch face during normal use. Needless to say, I returned it for a refund.

Good reliable mechanism and practical watch at a very good price.However, the strap is far from robust and I had to replace it. Having replaced it with an aftermarket strap. i now have a good, reliable watch for daily use.

Edit 3/6/22: I bought another as a gift for a fellow DIY'er. Thought I best check the item, before presenting. Just as well - watch lost 2min/day. I guess at £3 delivered, you can't expect perfection? My purchase is still fine. For those Amazoners (Amazonians?) who don't see the point in returning a faulty £3 item, these are generally painless, "don't send back", instant returns and refunds. Otherwise, the seller pays return postage. So, yes, it is worth a few clicks to get your money back!I needed a cheap watch for DIY and gardening, rather than damage my expensive watches. At just over £3, this fitted the bill, but I was suspicious of the strap. I was right, it looked totally naff and was cheap and nasty. (What else can you expect for £3, I hear you ask?) I found a cheap replacement, which nearly doubled my total investment, but much improves the look I think. You may not agree (photo). Quite how a cheap Chinese watch can be branded "Geneva" puzzles me, however.

A very elegant watch that is easy to read, keeps good time and looks expensive, although very reasonably priced.

A nice, smart, easily read watch. However, the poor quality of the pins which secure the wrist strap, meant it kept falling off, until the day I lost the pin altogether. You're much better off with a Casio watch, which is utterly reliable and still under £10.

Had to return it in the end, if you shake your wrist the dials all turn.

Was really cheap, looks really good (sort of Bauhaus ish). Comfortable, reliable, what there to dislike? Don't know how they make it and send it to you for the cost. It's so easy to see and read. But love it. Replaced a Omega Seamaster with it. Easier to read. The webmaster will cost over £450 to repair!!
