absolutely reliable good for watches

As a replacement for the old Dakota which is still on the road and only lost the color of the case after 25 years. Very cool!

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • not sure

Exactly what I wanted - pocket watch

My husband and I have just bought kayaks and didn't want to take our smartphones out on the water (at least not yet) but we wanted to know the time. This watch attaches to our safety vests and is waterproof if we spill it. My husband wore it on his belt and loved it. The little red light also (hopefully) serves as our boat safety signal here in Ohio. As a last resort, we could tell the person doing security that this is also an anchor. As a watch it looks good, is a good weight and tells the…

Pros
  • Fingers crossed
Cons
  • Safety

Better than a pocket watch

I love this little watch! I've never worn a wrist watch, always a pocket watch, but these are the best! It's easier to read and clips right onto my belt loop. No need for a chain. I recommend it.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Lots of stuff

Not the best watch

My husband has had many Dakota watches but both I ordered from this seller didn't work and had to be returned. I will look into another Dakota watch seller.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Clearly bad product

This is the fourth Dakota watch we have ordered in the last 24 months. We only have one worker left. The red LED is cool, but the clock just stopped. This is not a battery. Took it to my jeweler who put a new battery in and it still doesn't work. Should have known it wasn't the battery as the light was still working. A big disappointment as my husband and I love watches and the red LED is perfect for travel. Allows you to navigate a dark, unfamiliar hotel room without interfering with night…

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Out of style

Buyer Warning. fits watch

I wanted a watch that I could wear on my belt loop while snowboarding. It seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. But there were two problems: 1. When I received the package. The box containing the watch had already been opened. These people sent me an open box. The label's seal was broken and I'm sure it has already been returned. Since this was the case and I was about to return it, I figured I'd at least check it out. 2. The clock didn't even work. They sent me a broken watch in an open

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Negative impression

Poor quality in hours

Broke after about the second week. The minute hand simply dangles in the clock. Also the red coating started to wear off after about the second week (the photo shows where it's wearing off). I figured if you pay a little more for this item you will get a better product. nope Unfortunately due to a very busy schedule I missed the return window. $35+ straight into the bin.

Pros
  • I like everything so far
Cons
  • Appearance

VERY DISAPPOINTING!

VERY DISAPPOINTED! I really liked the watch. Looked great and kept a good time. But the watch stopped working after 6 months. I would not recommend this company for your watch needs.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Not bad but...

This watch is exactly what I was looking for and it works great. No more white ring on my wrist I've had this watch for 6 months and it no longer works. The light works but the clock has stopped. They charge $9.95 shipping and handling fee under the warranty. I changed the battery to see if that's the problem. Now the "repair" costs $25, so much for the 5-year warranty. I won't be ordering another one, throwing this one away and looking for another company. If you look at the reviews, this is a

Pros
  • Best in niche
Cons
  • I will add later
