Thank you. I still wear the Skmei every day.

my wife started wearing a Timex watch again, after using a fitbit for a few years. I checked on one with the Peanuts characters on it...but the cost made me gasp. This Ali special may do the trick. take care

@@joest.eggbenedictus1896 interesting. While I would prefer an analog watch, I find that the majority being made today (while being plenty BIG) are so busied up with gaudy design elements and unnecessary information that it's impossible to locate the hour and minute hands. I just bought a $15 watch online: how much diving and time-zone crossing world travel do you imagine I engage in?

@@ma-mo Totally agree. I went watch shopping for Christmas and couldn't find anything smaller. Every time i asked about one at the counter they told me it was a women's watch. I stick with Timex Expeditions. They have small faces. I did find a Caravelle, which is a Bulova entry level brand.

I still wear Casio, about the only part that wears out is the wristband. Looks like the Skmei wristband fits you better.

That's also my experience: only the band ever gives out. Luckily it's the easiest and cheapest part to replace.

Funny how the world works. I've only recently got the band of my W217H replaced because I missed wearing a wristwatch. I love them, but the band tore, and with no watch shops nearby to repair it quickly, inertia set in and the rest is history. The Skmei does seem like an F91W upscaled to W217H size. Not the worst thing as long as durability is not a concern, I suppose. Casios are tough, but Skmei I have no idea. I like the size, though. I have very large wrists so the F91W doesn't look or feel nice, but at the same time I want a wristWATCH, not a wristCLOCK. Especially since I wear it "upside down" with the face inside the wrist.

I said I was going to stop, and yet I did not in fact stop. I also ordered a Casio A168, with the stainless steel band. You know, for situations where the black resin band of the F91W (or the Skmei) just wouldn't work.

I like Skmei because I have big hands... I can't use small watches

Thanks, AlvaLink.

This type of display is very convenient, because you have all information about time and date, and there's no need to touch any button. I have a Chinese copy of this model, but I had to resold the quartz, because the previous one didn't give accuracy. In your case, 1 sec per a day is a pretty good result, usually the accuracy of Chinese watches much worse. Strangely enough, here in post Soviet countries we've never seen this model, not even copies. Instead, the iconic model here in 90-s was a no-name Montana watch, with similar screen. It had several melodies of some American songs.

Hello Can You please tell me the battery life of Skmei 2042? does it gives 7yrs like casio?

I don't know the answer to that. The paperwork that came with the watch doesn't say. And I haven't owned it long enough to be able to say. Maybe someone else can answer?

I'm confused, how do you connect it to an iPhone?

Pinning for the 80s again… Yes of course! You bet. The 80s was a happier place to live in ❤ who all agrees with me? Don’t be shy just hit like. 👍

It's not analog though! Boo! Four thumbs down 👎👎👎👎 Worst video ever, 0 star yelp review.
