SekondaMen's Quartz Watch with Analogue Classic Display

Bought this watch for my son from Amazon in early January sales for £20.99, with brown leather strap. It’s still same price at end of January- what an absolute bargain. It’s easy to read works accurately and is comfortable. Looks good too.Bought it to replace the expensive make new designer watch (not mentioning what brand here!) that it looks v very similar to, (an expensive designer watch he paid £130 for in the sales and lasted barely 2 years before one hand and 3 numbers fell off the face!!)We know Sekonda and they work well, keep good time and last far longer. And at 1/6 price of that looking designer watch, it was easy buy for me.My adult son is delighted with the style, the look, usefulness and comfort of it, and is happy that I said “you know what? let’s get this watch and not waste money again… this will last far longer..!” He loves his gadgets but there’s something lovely about a good looking analogue watch.

I work in an occupation that is 'hands on' to say the least, and I've lost count of the number of more expensive wrist watches I've damaged or lost as a result of my occupational hazards, and I was also sick of taking watches to the jewelers to get the batteries replaced only to find that the cost of doing so was almost as expensive as the watch itself, which is why I resorted some time ago to wearing only cheaper time pieces.This Sekonda Mens Quartz watch provides me with the best of all world's. Its reliable, easy to set thanks to its analogue controls, smart and formal looking, and is available for very little indeed, meaning that if it breaks or the battery runs out its more cost effective simply to get yourself another one.A year in and counting and it's still going strong!

looks very good

It is a great watch and great value for the price.I'm very satisfied with it.Thank you

This is a great value watch for daily use. Although the date is a small window, that is an easy thing to live with. The dial is simple, clear and so far the watch keeps excellent time.

The watch appears to be of Good quality. It would be nice if the sweeping second hand was a different colour to the minute and hour hand as I sometimes have to look again to check time.The strap started to crack after just three days of wearing and is therefore of inferior quality, which is a real shame as I think the watch itself looks smart.

Now i do like my watches and do have a fair collection of the famous named watches. I normaly collect mechanical calibres. However i'm not to much of a snob to look into the more affordable range of quartz movements from the other big brands and i do like to explore the more affordable offerings.Now sekonda do make some nice looking watches at a very fair price and i do have a few of there other designs.Sometimes you can find a little gem of a watch in the sales. i picked this one up for £20.00 pound on a limited deal.This is a lovely looking watch, the dial is clean and uncluttered, the Rose gold indices and hands work beautifully with the dark blue dial.The crystal is mineral crystal and is crisp. at 40mm the watch is not oversized. and at 8mm thick this is one of the thinest watches i currently own. The date window really is tiny and not easy to read but works well with the design.The band with is 20mm meaning it's easy to find a replacement strap that is of better quality and in a colour that suits personal tastes.However the strap supplied is absolutely awfull, the colour really does not work with the dial colour and really does make the overall combination look and feel very cheap and inbalanced.The watch in itself does not feel heavy, fits nicely on my wrist and is comfortable to wear.I pulled the trigger with a view to switching the strap as soon as it arrived.I had already chosen a royal blue with white contrasting stitching and have to admit this really does transform this to a beautifull combination.A watch that will work with sekonda's renowned reliabillity and with the strap change looks a really nice dress style watch that wil work as a daily beater and as a nice diner watch.All in all yes i added to the cost with a nicer strap. But having now worn the watch for a day i can confess i could fall in love with this now very good looking timepiece.Would i wear it to dinner Hmm quite possibly.i deducted one star for the rubbish strap, with a more suitable strap this i think for the price point could quite easily be a five star buy.

Ideal watch for men at a very competitive price. Large numerals for easy reading. The black face on watch really matches the brown strap. Highly recommended for a present for the man in your life or as a gift to yourself.
