Skmei 1894: The best value Digital watch in the world!!!!

almost certainly the best value digital watch ever.
my favourite digital watch as it keeps things simple and elegant.

Yep. I just love mine. Best watch I ever had.

Just bought a second one of these and I absolutely love the jumbo easy read display, im 64 and eyes are closer to 72 so this was an amazing bargain to find. My first one was the standard display and the second one thats on order is the reverse black display. Ill probably buy another standard display just so im never without one especially as cheap as they are. Its not a casio Gshock or whatever if youre into that but I couldnt care less, its way more readable with a great backlight and 22mm band swaps are easy as can be either one piece or two piece.

Bought three of these in black, blue, and green. Lately I've been getting the negative displays on watches and this one really looks nice with a black screen. Gives it more of a pricier smartwatch feel.

Somehow this one reminds me of the late Pebble Smartwatch.
No touch screen, only buttons; very simple and straightforward.

Thanks for the review!

Where to buy the straps matching this watch?

[usonic]

how easy is to set alarm or countdown timer at night? Does light stays on while other buttons are pressed? Or can you hold light button while pressing other buttons?

I just got my 1894 and it's a TOTAL Casio AE 1500 killer! The digits are about the same size in both watches but that is where the similarities end. Besides the fact that I prefer a square or rectangle shape for digitals (open to debate), the backlight is lightyears better (green EL vs two amber LED's), the strap is much softer but more important, the lugs are standard 22mm which gives the option of a zillion aftermarket straps. There is no annoying text around the bezel and and the display is as clear and uncluttered as it gets - time, day, date period. The countdown timer is unfortunately not settable to the second and there is only one alarm (which I never use anyway). Overall this watch costs a fraction of the AE-1500 (I paid under 12 bucks) and it is therefore even cheaper than a W-800H or F-91W, in short the Skmei 1894 is a tremendous value!

This is absolutely the best digital watch I have ever had, easy to read without wearing glasses, the backlight is perfect, it is lightweight and it looks good, people ask me if it is a smart watch . 👍👍👍👍👍

How do you change the day from Tuesday to Sunday

[avegailzabala]

is it really water resistant? can you wear it during a swim?

I added a 22mm black NATO strap because the band was too short for my 8.5+" wrist and now I like the watches look even more. The black NATO band gives it a bit more of a serious quality look over the rubber etc. but to each his own.

Is it an original design by SKMEI or is it emulating another model from a different brand?
Edit: I figured it out! The original design is from the Rip Curl Next Digital Watch. That took me a while to find lol

Really like this watch, but the screen's viewing angle worries me—it fades into too easily. For those who own it: does it bother you, or do you get used to it?

Hi, how do you remove the straps from this watch? I doesn't seem to have easily removable straps.

[melallmark]

Hi - Thanks for the review. Do you know if you can change the date format on this watch from mm/dd to dd/mm (British) ? Thanks in advance!

[waris]

Great watch, like the grey suede strap! Any link to it?

[leks]

Do you know you can swap the strap in 99, 9% of all watches?

[tjthekingofhearts]

It might just be a Nixon regular or Nixon mk1 killer

[LazyStory]

No, no, no! There is *nothing elegant* about that watch.

Sure you can like it is easy to read etc. But nothing, absolutely nothing elegant.
