My new favorite watch. Simple home improvement needed
Color: all black watch mens, Color: all black watch mens
Despite having many reknown brand watches in my collection, these inexpensive Olevs watches are now my favorite.
They look nice, cost practically nothing and so far are very accurate (10 day review). Little to worry about if lost or damaged.
PROS:
1. Inexpensive $40/each.
2. As stylish as other fashion watches 5x-10x more expensive.
3. Watch Crystal (i.e., glass) has a unique, faceted shape, which reflects light, feels "Manly" and matches faceted bezel.
4. Light weight and slim case; fits small wrists nicely (I have 6.4" wrists).
5. Accurate - two watches tracked over 10 days. Watch one: -7 seconds/10 days. Watch two: +2 seconds/10 days.
6. Illuminescent (i.e., glow-in-the-dark) hands and watch face look decent in dark.
CONS:
7. Lightweight and cheap material - durability is questionable, especially coatings.
8. Bracelet/band links have excessive gaps to each other and rattle badly, making watch noisy and embarrassing. *Home fix*
9. Faceted Crystal can make it difficult to see exact time, because of light reflection.
10. Single clasp on bracelet could easily open inadvertently, vs double clasp.
11. Crown is not threaded and spins freely, even when closed (doesn't change time); likely poor water proofing and crown can easily open.
12. Difficult to set time accurately; crown movement is figity and closing crown can cause hands to easily move.
13. Second hand doesn't exactly line up with tick marks making it difficult to know if actual time is before, or after tick mark.
*AT HOME FIX*:
To fix the noisy bracelet, simply cut to length a piece of waterproof medical tape 15-16mm (5/8") wide, then attach to inside of clean bracelet, while spreading the links apart with your finger (i.e., stretch band). Do this on each bracelet, but don't cover clasp. Tape will need to be replaced, as it gets dirty, but it makes watch quiet.
