I just wanted a beater analog watch that I could wear while paddle boarding. My 20+ year old G-Shock that I used for diving is finally getting glitchy and I thought this sport dive watch looked reasonably tough in the picture and somewhat resembling a G Shock. I didn't need this one for diving though, I just needed it to survive when I fall off my board into the water. At the price, I'm not going to be fussy about much, but when it arrived it was obvious that the band and case of the watch was nowhere near as tough as a G Shock. But still, that would be OK as long as it holds up.

The watch movement seems fine but unfortunately the plastic casing didn't hold up very long at all. After just a few weeks and having received no blows or shocks or stresses or even a fall into the water, the case broke off near where the band attaches. The band came right off and there's no way to reattach it to the broken plastic.

I don't see any other complaints like this, so maybe mine is a fluke. But I have to rate it based on my experience, not assuming it was a freak occurrence. A watch that simply falls apart is in no way acceptable, though I accept the possibility that maybe it received some kind of hard blow before I received it, or when it was out of my sight.

I could have pursued a refund I suppose but did not due to the small price.
