Wave Mens Watch – 39mm Sports Watch for Men, Rotating Bezel, Stainless Steel Bracelet and Date Window – 50m Water Resistant – 2 Year Warranty

I bought this to avoid me Having to take my good watch away on holiday. I bought the blue one for the summer evening vibes. It does the job, looks decent on my smallish wrists and has been excellent in terms of time-keeping. I’d read issues with people who wore it in the pool, so did not risk that, but it was fine dealing with torrential rain and sweat. The watch itself is fairly light-weight, the rotating bezel has a wee bit of give and the lume is not very bright, but for the price I paid (on a time limited deal) these are fairly picky points. In general, the finishing is good. Bracelet can be shortened without taking somewhere, but perhaps watch a YouTube video first as these sekonda links are not your usual links. The bracelet is clearly not on a par with a quality watch, but what are you expecting at this price? In summary, decent looking ‘divers style’ watch that you don’t have to worry about too much if knocked about or lost on holiday. Perhaps avoid any actual diving or swimming though!

Great looking watch and value for money. More than happy with my purchase. I would highly recommend.

I bought this watch as a cheap alternative for my main, every day Rolex. I only use it for working in and around the house, painting, gardening and the like. As far as it goes its very good. Looks good and keeps good time, better than the Rolex in fact but then it is battery powered and not mechanical. When it arrived I discovered that the bracelet was too tight. Had I bought it from a high street shop I would have been able to try it on and either reject it or have it adjusted. As it was bought from an Amazon marketplace vendor. In the box was a slip telling what I had to do to get the bracelet fit. In my case I needed another link or two. The only problem with this is that the address on the slip was out of date, useless! I then had to contact (Email via Amazon) the company who actually supplied the watch (Not Amazon) and ask them if they would supply extra links. The supplier then sent me another address and phone number from where I could get links. That company was very helpful and sent me two FREE links so that I could fit then myself. I did have the option of sending the watch to the Sekonda main dealer who would have fitted them free of charge for me (I pay the postage). Had I bought this or any other watch from the high street I would have expected it to fit or be made to fit and set at the correct time and date, not to mention have a new battery fitted. The Amazon market place did not of this.

The watch was of appropriate quality for the £20/- just with in 10 days of purchase, the time slowed down by < 6hours. Not sure why. I have to reset the watch timings. The bracelet feels cheap & flimsy.

Case Stainless steel, but feels lightweight. The crown cannot be screwed down. The case lock is snap on type. The watch is rated for 50 m, Which is about right for this design. the watch can survive perspiration, rain and probably shower (some other reviewers pointed out that the watch let in water during swimming). This watch is definitely not for swimming, snorkeling or diving (definitely no jacuzzi or sauna). The crown is lacquered, not stamped, crown movement is not very smooth. Bracelet Quite cheaply done and rattles a lot. It is difficult to remove links yourself (not regular screw-in pins, still doable), but you can send it away for free adjustment at sekonda. I removed the bracelet and replaced it with NATO strap (black with 2 red stripes). It looks damn good so. Dial and hands Really nice uncluttered design. Second hand is ticking and aligns well with markers, which is unusual for cheap watches Luminosity Lower than average, difficult to see in darkness Movement Very precise quartz movement. After 2 months several seconds gained which is excellent Value Definitely good buy at £20, no way it is worth RSRP £60. Overall Cheaply done watch that looks like a diver. However, once in your hands you will see why you paid so little. It is not Rolex for the masses (although it is far more precise). Definitely not for swimming. Good buy at amazon price, but if you have more money to spend look for Casio, Lorus, Seiko or Citizen

I bought this watch due to it's great looks and very low price. I had no great expectations, even though Seconda manufactures some great quality watches. The watch comes in a simple yet a smart looking black cardboard presentation case, and includes an "Instruction Guide and 2 year Guarantee" and a paper "Bracelet Gauge". This watch looks so lively, with a vibrant red and black bezel and classy dial. In fact it looks much better in real life. And I was blown away by the precise second hand alignment with the ticks!! I have not seen such precision from watches costing ten times the price. Maybe I am lucky and have a one off. I have measured any drifting in time over 3 weeks and it still is spot on. The bezel rotates anti-clockwise producing a solid clicking sound. The watch diameter including the bezel is 4cm, and the watch fascia 3cm. My wrist circumference is 19.5cm, and I needed to move the adjustment pin 3 notches tighter (1cm) in order to have a comfortable fit, so the Seconda should fit wrist sizes up to 21 cm maximum. Call me cheap, but I must admit that I really love this watch :) Update 14th May 14: Another point worthy of mention is the 50m water resistance. I have tested this thoroughly and use it for swimming. Uploaded a couple of photos to show how it looks on wrist, and precise second arm in relation to tick on dial. Bottom line: A cheap yet good looking quality watch which functions very well .... and if you have a look at the Rolex Submariner or GMT Master, you might find some similarities (as far as looks go) :)

Incredible value for money. OK there are an infinite number of "diver's" watches out there (or styled as such) and many that are better than Sekonda's offering but if you are just looking for a cheap, basic, well-made, good looking submariner homage then i dont think you can do better at this price point. I found the bracelet a bit rattly and cheap, so I could have dropped a star for this however i always intended to replace it. I have had this watch on a black/red/grey NATO strap and also a silicone diver's strap (either can be found for a few quid) and in my opinion both options made it look and feel more expensive than it is. At 39mm this is more suited to smaller wrists. It fits me fine although i do like a larger watch. Overall, an unbeatable cheap daily watch.

Fantastic value for money. It looks superb, very Rolexesk, people who see it cannot believe the price. Keeps perfect time. Clasp nice and strong.

Sinceramente il più alto rapporto qualità prezzo mai visto! L'orologio è leggero, ben fatto, resistente e sicuramente non mi affiderei per farcinuna immersione ma per l'uso di tutti i giorni è bello e va benissimo! Unica miglioria possibile il cinturino, ma quello in dotazione va benissimo ha tante regolazioni e ripeto l'orologio vale molto più di quanto costa!

Tout à fait conforme à mes attentes. Nous verrons dans la durée...

je viens de recevoir ma montre Sekonda , je m'attendais à une grosse daube , j'ai été agréablement surpris , très bonne finition , les points sont lumineux dans le noir ça me rappelle mon ancienne Kelton de plongée des années 80 , pour 30 euros elle vaut vraiment le coup , ce qui m'a plu dans cette montre c'est qu'au niveau de la fenêtre de la date il n'y a pas une loupe sur la lunette pour voir le chiffre chose que je trouve vraiment horrible , je viens de re mesurer elle a bien un diamètre de 40mm pas de 39mm (pareil que la ROLEX submariner) , conseil faites vous livrer en colis Premium sinon il y a des risques de vol durant le transport , hors Premium l'emballage est merdique il n'est pas scootché le colis s'ouvre d'une main , je la recommande .

Für den Preis sieht die Sekonda Herren-Sportuhr wirklich sehr gut und schick aus. Sie lässt sich angenehm tragen und macht insgesamt einen hochwertigen Eindruck. Das Armband ist allerdings etwas leicht und erzeugt beim Bewegen einen recht metallischen Klang. Darüber kann man bei dem Preis aber hinwegsehen. Insgesamt ist es eine sehr schicke Uhr, die man im Alltag gut tragen kann und die für den Preis absolut empfehlenswert ist. Habe einen Fehler auf der Lünette, aber stört nicht
