Excellent product , still going strong, apart from strap
Good value , strap will break if you are taking it on and off all the time due to trying to get a good fit but for the price well worth it

Cheap, easy to read BIG watch⌚for sport lovers 🏊🏂🧗 and senior citizens 🧓🏻
In this review, I will share my unbiased opinion on the CIVO Military Waterproof Simple Design Big Numbers watch..=====QUICK OVERVIEW=====I LIKED+ Superb readability of the face (big numbers and date)+ Indigo blue colour when backlit+ Backlight stays on for about 3 seconds (slightly longer than other watches)+ Comfortable to wear+ Inexpensive so easily replaceable a year down the line+ 1-year warranty+ 90-day money backI WISHED- CIVO wasn’t displayed as big (at all?) at the top of the strap- The box was as slick as Burei’s watches to offer this watch as a present (I’m being probably to harsh considering the price of this watch)=======================INTRO 🗣️From a young age, my father gave me his bug for timepieces: over the years, I’ve been lucky enough to buy dozens of watches from the likes of Tag Heuer and Zenith to some of the most affordable watchmakers selling their products on Amazon.Here, I am aiming to confirm if this watch is worth your consideration as a present for a loved one or for yourself.CONTEXT 💰I bought this watch in January 2018, during one of amazon’s daily deal offers. The watch had about 450 customer reviews and a score of 4.4. I paid £9.99 instead of the regular £11.99.DELIVERY 🚚As usual, the watch was well-packed and it was delivered quickly via amazon Prime.BOX 📦It is a very simple, small square-shaped box. Except for the label, there is only the brand name and logo on the front.Inside, in regards to accessories you only have a tiny instruction manual, a small cleaning cloth and an international warranty card. There is no additional padding, but the watch is decently protected I guess.CIVO is obviously related to the Megalith brand (or vice-versa): they provide the exact same packaging and accessories.DESIGN ⌚At first sight, the watch looks big and the display comes across as incredibly easy to read.On both sides of the case you will find two buttons. They are all sturdy and easy to operate.As mentioned previously, by default, the screen offers outstandingly good visibility. Additionally, you can also trigger the backlight button (top left) which turns the black font into a cool indigo colour easily readable in the dark.Please note that the watch is very light, which is good or bad depending on your taste.Here, the watch comes with a rubber strap which does the job: it is comfortable and it didn’t irritate my skin.FEATURES ✅This watch comes fully-featured: 50M waterproof; 12 digits LCD display for time, week and date; Daily alarm and chime hourly; 12/24H format selectable, auto calendar; 1/100 seconds chronograph; EL backlight.CONCLUSION ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐For just above £10, this sporty watch offers outstanding value. This is an excellent buy for anyone who is looking for a cheap, almost disposable second watch to wear outside of work, in the gym or on vacation.It would also be a great gift for the senior citizens in your life.⬇️ I bought this product myself.

A partly good watch!
This watch is described as being "50M Waterproof". I bought it as a watch to wear when I am doing things like washing the car or working in the garden with water. I opened the package and discovered a warning leaflet about the fact that the watch is NOT waterproof but is OK for things like washing your hands. The statement on the leaflet is as follows:" This watch is water resistant to 5 bars, which is suitable for daily water resistant use like hand washing. But it is not suitable for diving and swimming. Excessive exposure to water will shorten the watch's life span." It goes on: "Do not use the watch in the bathroom or sauna.......". "Waterproof" is NOT the same thing as "Water Resistant" which I would well believe that this watch is but there is a question mark over say, wearing the watch when I'm fishing. So maybe change the description on the "advert" on Amazon.That point made, I rather like the watch in terms of its big numbers, and ease of choosing options (e.g. choosing the 24 clock over 12 hour) . It has, so far, shown itself to be very a accurate time keeper.

Far better than I expected, a good watch but not fully waterproof
What kind of a watch do you get for €12/£11? Frankly I wasn't expecting much in regard to quality, so when the watch arrived what did I find?Well it certainly is no Seiko or Casio g-shock but the quality is far better than I expected. First the strap, well it's soft, pliable & comfortable to wear. The sections nearest the watch are fixed in place & are not flexible at all, this may seem to be a bad idea but in practice it works well as the fixed part is angled so the watch sits perfectly on the wrist & is less likely to slide around, in fact it just stays put; so far so good. The watch is of course quite large. This is it's selling point, 46mm across edge to edge & the display is 33mm, the designers have chosen to fill this real estate with a much larger led display than normal; it's huge in comparison. The daylight display is crisp, contrasty & given the size very easy to read. I have mine set in the 24 hour mode, the display reads a 2 character day, the month & the date on the top line; note the date arrangement is in the US format -month then date, not the European format of day/date but I can live with that.As stated earlier the hours/minute figures are huge, 10mm high! The third line is the second figure, as I have my watch set to the 24 hour mode the A or P (am/pm) marker disappears. Over all then top marks for the display, no clutter. The case is of course plastic & there are minor moulding marks, but then those lines are also present on Casios too! No surprise at this price point there is an acrylic face.The time is very easy to set as the 4 buttons work well. I went stealth mode, removed the logo & the water depth marking with very fine wet/dry sandpaper & then an even finer grade to polish out any sanding marks. The night display? unusually this isn't the typical backlit display, the backscreen is not illuminated, the figures change from black to glowing green, which is rather nice; not the brightest perhaps, but more than bright enough to read. Absolutely no complaints there.The stop watch facility is good, a press of the mode button brings you directly into the stopwatch, pressing a second button starts the timer, press the button again the timer stops & a third press starts it again where it left off. Pressing the third button resets the timer to 0. Press the mode button twice gets you into alarm mode. It's not the loudest of alarms but it's ok.The watch came operating so there's no way of knowing how much battery life is left. The battery is a CR2025 easily obtainable & inexpensive. The back presumably stainless steel is secured by 4 screws so unless you are cack handed you can change the battery easily enough yourself or have jeweler do it.Waterproof? I suspect this is where it's not so good. The manufacturer advises against operating the buttons while underwater, the suggests that the watch is not fully sealed & pressing the buttons breaks the seal allowing the ingress of water. So not fully waterproof then, I wouldn't risk it in a shower or pool, but hey it's only £10, if you want a functional waterproof watch look elsewhere.So in conclusion this is a very decent watch at a silly low price. I love it!
