SKMEI 1068. Delivers perfectly what is promised.
It's a great watch. I decided to get the watch after watching some amazing review videos on YouTube some time ago.
FEATURES:
Hourly chime(optional). One alarm. Chronograph(stopwatch) with split times(no lap memory). 12 and 24 hour time modes, and features the date, month, and day of the week(no year). It DOES NOT have any countdown timer.
PROS:
The watch fits very well. It's very comfortable to wear.
The light function is very bright, and provides excellent visibility. This watch lights up brighter than my new Timex with the indiglo.
It's waterproof. I've only had it for a couple days so far, but I've showered, washed my hands, and washed dishes with it on and haven't had an issue.
CONS:
The only con is that it doesn't track the year, so no leap years.
NOTES ON OTHER REVIEWERS' COMPLAINTS:
Some complain that the face is hard to read, because at an angle, the full [number print?] of the display comes in to view, and the screen "turns to gibberish". It's true that if you hold it at a weird angle, it becomes unreadable, but all LCD displays of this type do that; calculators, watches, and anything else. I've included a picture to show what I'm talking about.(Note the weird angle at which I'm holding the watch in the photo, nobody checks their watch this way.) This claim is ridiculous and unreasonable, as long as you have the watch pointed at you when you're looking at it, like normal, then it's not a problem at all. Maybe, these people are trying to perform some kind of acrobatic feat, or check the time during a yoga pose, but when you're actually LOOKING AT the watch, the display is perfect.
Also, for those people who complain that every time you cycle the modes, it gives you the option to set the time, press the reset button while on the chronograph, or otherwise changing any setting, that eliminates this problem. Though, I don't know why they're pressing buttons to change mode if they're not using the stopwatch or alarm.
A few people here will give you the impression that it's a huge watch, but that's not the case. The fit is surprisingly comfortable.
Unlike some will tell you, the watch DOES NOT beep when you press the light button, that is absolutely untrue.
