My mother bought me this watch for Chanukah, at my request. The buttons used to control the functions (date, time) are nearly impossible to use. The instructions suggest using a ball point pen, which I did. I followed the instructions for setting the watch and all I got was a lot of frustration. At this time, the watch is just rotating through the numbers 1-12 over and over again. This is going back!

This is just the watch I need. Very understated in this small black version. I like to wear multiple bracelets, a thin leather strand wrap-around, colored string, etc… on one wrist This blends into the cacophony seamlessly. Plus it tells you only the hour and minute – no more, no less. Enough other things in the world are telling me the fraction of a second, day, date, temperature, my heart rate. I just need the time; simple said and done. Ask yourself if you really need a big watch face looking back at you. I LOVE this watch. Excellent design. And as for longevity, I hope it lasts, there’s not much to break, but for $17, really…..

Yesterday I bought a Breoroam at British airways taxfree shop happy to find something so small that would help me to control the minutes I run. Am regreting now.
It does not come with any instructions on how to set the time and, even after finding them online (not at their website), I still cannot get it to work.
I would like to know the driteria for their design award, but I am sure it did not include usability; look the amount of people with the same problem as mine

First these watches keep TERRIBLE time. They lose about two minutes a week. So if you actually care what time it is you’re going to be resetting this thing very often. I didn’t know digital watches could be of such low quality. Second point is that this is a kid’s / smaller girl sized band. It does NOT stretch – not any. And it is pretty small.

The first watch I purchased did not work well, it ran fast and the date did not display. I returned it to Amazon and I received a replacement within a few days. The new watch works very well, it’s keeping time and the date displays. The date and time are displayed interchangeably/flashing between the two. The watch is streamline, water proof, and comfortable to wear. The only “con” about it is that to adjust the date and time you have to press a couple of tiny buttons on the back side of the face and a tool is not provided to do this. The buttons are very very small. Aside from that, I’m enjoying the watch and use it almost daily.
