Review on Exquisite ManChDa Antique Mechanical Phoenix Skeleton: A Timeless Timepiece by Antonio Ashton

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good inexpensive pocket watch

This watch is much better than I expected given the low price. The plastic crystals will most likely get scratched with use, but now they don't scratch and look pretty good. I rotated the clock 15 turns and set the clock using the quartz clock as a reference. After 24 hours and partial winding, the watch is running 10 seconds faster than a quartz watch - MUCH better accuracy than I expected. I am very impressed with this watch under $30. They look good and tell the time well. EDITI did a little research on the watch and discovered that it uses a 2650G Chinese 17 jewel movement, speeding at 21,600 vph. The mechanism is designed to be accurate within 30 seconds per day. Various factories in China produce this movement, which has been produced in large numbers since the 1970s.
