Watch Compass, Altimeter Barometer Thermometer Temperature, Pedometer ,WArmy Waterproof Outdoors Sport Digital Watch for Men, Black

I bought this on March 25 2023 and it wouldn't be a stretch to say I have never taken it off. I have gone swimming with it showered with it and done tree work and mechanic work with it. Basically it's been with me since and I have never once babied it.Water problems?It hasn't ever fogged up a single time... untill about a month ago I don't think I did anything different but after I took a shower it fogged but was still readable. Next day the fog was gone. I think it was just colder than usual in my room at the time. It fogged up one other time but has been fine ever since.Utility functions.The compass was so inaccurate and untrustworthy I NEVER used it and would recommend just getting a dedicated one. The metal backplate probably didn't help.The barometer was cool and I thought the functions of height mapping and pressure mapping were really cool too but again I never used it. I never really had a need or use for that data and although I think the pressure sensor was accurate enough the extrapolated height was not so trust worthy just due to how the it works and weather.I thought I wouldnt use the step counter at all but probably used it the most funny enough. I really like that feature even though I thought I wouldn't.The stop watch has annoying nonstandard reset controls and I had to spend 5 min Everytime to figure it out and so I often tried to use it but ended up just wasting time on it and giving upon it.The timer I really liked but it's so far deep in the modes it was annoying to get to and so i usually defaulted to my phone which could even wake me up while the watch might not get my attention with headphones on.The rest of the features I don't care about and never used.Battery life?Well the reason I'm making this review now is because it ran out of juice so March 25, 2023to April 9, 2024 with the step meter on and two daily alarms. My dad happened to get the same watch and it died a bit before mine despite getting it later probably because he's old and can't read the display without the light. I replaced his battery [cr2032 I think it was] but I think I'm going to look for something else.I liked that the time[sec,min,hour] the date[month&day] and the day of the week were all visible on the main screen all at once without having to press any buttons. I don't really like the inverted LCD display with the background being black instead of the letters. It's harder to read.It's pretty sick for what it does and the cost it does it for but it does have those cons. That about sums up my review hope it helps.

bit big to wear as a watch, but i got it because it was a cheap digital barometer, and NOT a 2 piece "weather station". it fit those parameters and works as intended.

Overall this is a good ABC watch, it’s certainly worth the $40 price tag. That said, don’t expect a Garmin.For the good, the watch keeps very accurate time and the barometer is quite good. I’ve compared the pressure readings to local weather stations and airport data and it is consistently with 1 millibar so it’s accurate enough to use reliably. The watch also has a LOT of functions. We’ll get to the learning curve and ease of use in a bit, but the watch isn’t lacking on features. Keep the manual handy and memorize your favorites for sure.As far as waterproofing goes, the watch never claimed to be and using a barometer means it has an opening where water could get in. With this in mind, I don’t wear it where it could get submerged out of caution. Showers and some rain are no issue.For the negatives, the biggest is how confusing it can be to use. The four buttons are tasked with toggling a lot of functions and adjusts for them. Without the manual, I would be lost on how to operate the watch beyond the basic ABC and time functions. Second, the altimeter is not reliable. At all. It is easily fooled by any sort of change in temperature and pressure and gives some curious readings. Right now in Florida at all of maybe 3 meters above sea level my watch is saying I’m 40 meters up. Not so much! This sort of inaccuracy is pretty common in my time with the watch. Avoid taking the altimeter seriously. I don’t think anyone takes the weather prediction seriously on these watches seriously either (nor should you), but it too is also very hit or miss. Yes, if it stays outdoors it can alert for rain based on pressure drops but it is too easily fooled to be reliable. I suppose on an extended camping outing it can be of use, but for normal use I wouldn’t bother much. And this isn’t really a negative necessarily but the watch is pretty big, more than you may expect from the product images. It does make it easy to read but do know it’s quite big.While the negatives section seems a bit long overall I am satisfied with the watch. I never had much use for the altimeter here in the epic highlands of Florida, and for what I purchased the watch for it does well for my uses. Even though it’s big, it’s comfortable and looks pretty nice for an ABC watch, and it tracks time and atmospheric pressure very well. And if you’re big on features, there’s a ton here to play with if you have the patience to learn it all. For $40 you get a lot for your money and there’s probably enough to like here to be happy with it. I like it overall, just realize that with all things in life you get what you pay for. With reasonable expectations this is a fine ABC watch.

!!UPDATE!! Everything still works fine but the black paint around crystal on the bezel and a few other spots (see pics) has completely washed off with water. All I’ve done with this watch is go jogging. There’s not been exposed to seawater. It has been exposed to sweat and sunscreen which I wash off with tapwater immediately when I’m done working out. While the watch still works perfectly fine I’m not impressed with the fact that they used such cheap paint. (Hope it’s safe?) Why bother at all and just leave the metal unpainted? This doesn’t build my confidence that this product is quality and will last without falling apart. I will make more updates as I progress with using it.So far so good. The watch does everything it supposed to and the back light works perfectly in the dark. The only complaint that I have is that some of the icons on the screen are very very small and a little hard to see. I’ll post again as I progress in using a device.THE FINAL UPDATE—Well, the China cheap watch almost lasted 2 full years and died safely in my jewelry box at 21 months of age. I will not be buying another and do not recommend it.
