I have owned these watches for over 20yrs..I have the best of luck with them. they usually last about 6-7yrs..once in a while the plastic where the strap goes gets broke..but other than that I have never had 1 quit on me..they are very well built for the cheap money they are..I am an automotive restoration guy, so these watches are put in a hostile enviroment,,between painting and body work, along with welding..but they take it in style..
