Armitron Women's Day/Date Crystal Accented Dial Metal Bracelet Watch, 75/2475

Elegante e raffinato eppure così pratico e sportivo... Con una precisione che spacca il secondo!!!...

Watch came "running". Crown was not pulled out and so it is not known how much the battery was used. Nice ladies watch in stainless steel. The color will not fade. Claims to be water resistant. Elegant looks and if you have good eyes, it has a day / date function. I like the contrast between the hands and the watch face, makes it easier to read. Bracelet is "sharp". I had to take a file to the inside portion that is against your wrist in order to smooth it and make it more comfortable. I spent about 20 minutes doing this. I had to remove 3 links to size it. Easy to do if you are mechanically inclined. There are videos. Look up "How to size a folded link bracelet". Micro adjustments can be made from the clasp. Shipping took a long time (perhaps due to holiday season). Watch came in a nice box but with no owners manual or instructions. I recommend especially at a discounted price.

Lovely watch which looks much more expensive than it cost. Not too big, not too small, just perfect!

Update: 1yr, 1 mo.... clasp suddenly got weak then broke about a week later. While tying my shoes the clasp came undone, the next week it came undone several times for no reason, then discovered the latch metal had cracked and really not doing its job. In the band/clasp pic, there is a tab missing (it broke off). Dial crystal (glass?) Scratches pretty easily. Inside the face had a forgettable haze - looked like the glass needed to be cleaned. I replaced the battery after only about 5-6mo - not optimal. Band edges were sharp. 7 I usually keep a watch for multiple years, not 1. I wore it non stop for 1yr1mo, survived all showers, some dog baths, countless dish washings, a car wash, about 4 large aquarium cleanings, etc. I removed it periodically to wash extra specifically after gross aquarium washings/whatever, and to adjust time changes or to manage 28 or 30 day months, but otherwise wore it all day, everyday. __________________________________ 1 week old... still good. Survived multiple showers including hair washing. New, 4/1/2024 - For 20+ years Ive worn a silver band, blue face, sweeping second hand, with the date, watch. So this fit my needs, although its rated less water resistant / was wanting more waterproof. I was afraid the face's case was too bulky at the top / bottom due to the company's photos, but its reasonable in person. The watch band is WAY sharp on the edges. Another review mentioned this too. I went to a Dakota Watch shop to take two links out, and the guy agreed, suggested filing it with a nail file or fine sandpaper, nothing more aggressive. Movement is Japanese, band is Chinese. It was running when I got it. The date was 4 days ago, which means 4 days of 24-hours-worth of winding, glad it wasnt more. The days alternate English > Spanish, and role over the alt language day just after midnight. Sunday / Domingo is in red ink. The day of the week is adjusted with a 1st stage of the crown pulled out time and date/# is at 2nd stage or full pull out of the crown. So far so good. (I wish watch makers would understand that words have meanings... 3ATM or 30meters... imagine the pressure of 90-100ft of water... but say it only handles "a dishwashing splash"... hoping this watch is better than that.

I was nervous getting this watch because it was flagged as a frequently returned item. I took a chance and it looks amazing! It’s small and comfortable on the wrist. Removing the links was a challenge but once I figured it out it wasn’t too bad. I paired it with my Swarovski bracelet and they look amazing together! How to remove links: -Inside the watch band, there are 6 arrows (3 on each side of the clasp) -Above the arrows there is a small space (see picture) -I inserted my cuticle cutters in that space and pushed the piece out to remove the link (the piece you push out will be in the shape of an “L”) -See if it fits, if not push the next piece out above the next arrow -To reconnect the band line the links up and reinsert the “L” shaped piece above the arrow
