This is by far one of the best quality LED watches on the market if not the best and is serious value for money, only 500 exist and it will be a future classic.

if you think $120 is alot for this watch that has only a few functions (time,date,seconds,24hr etc) yet is big and heavy and can only display the time once the function button is hit (information is on a need to know basis) then you need to be reminded this is a LED-WATCH and LED-WATCHES clearly are not really your thing so why comment on it?

this watch is very classy!

So, when the Majestyk LED watch appeared I took a rather callused look at it. I looked at it, asking myself several “hard” questions. Does it look different or is yet another copycat, is it of good quality, does the module display seconds, are the buttons decent or just another set of pimple ones, etc.

After satisfying myself that the answers were yes, I picked up the Red LED version. I was very glad that I did. The look is great, quality is real good, button design and placement is logical and nice, it is very easy to set; the module does give you the ability to display seconds, etc. In fact, I was so pleased with it that I subsequently picked up the Blue LED version. This blue LED version is truly outstanding. I can even see the time without my glasses (first LED watch that lets me do this). In fact, the Blue LED one has become the watch I wear most of the time. Believe me, this is a radical departure for me – I primarly wore my Junghans Atomic Mega 1000 LCD on a regular basis before receiving the Blue LED version of this watch.

Bottom line for me is that I am very happy I added these two to my collection. They are the very first “new LED’s” that I will not make eBay fodder of!!!!

Regarding the display; there are two colors. Red and blue. As the reviewer states, the blue display above, does not actually bloom that bright and looks much better on the actual watch. The photos of the blue display on Ledwatchstop look different because they were done with a single CR-2032 battery, which the display will not light up as bright. It is meant to run on two CR2016′s, but either will work just fine.

Concerning the wrist size…The specs that were given to Gadgeteer were wrong. The minimum size is 6 inches. The preferable size is 6.2 and up. From about 5.8 to 6 inches, the watch will be a little loose on the wrist, which a couple customers of mine have reported, but they didn’t mind since they wear watches loose anyway, like many seem to these days. Let me also state that I have about a 5.9 inch wrist and I’ve had many problems with modern LED and LCD watches not fitting it. I can not wear watches like the Solsuno or the THIX T3 because the vertical height on them exceeds my wrist size. The M1 was designed so it would fit my wrist. The size in some ways is not as big as you might think because vertically, it’s mostly just the band (including the “false link”) meeting up with a narrow face. The size emphasis on this watch, is more width, so because of this, it can fit my small wrist.

Thanks,

Well, here’s the thing… My wrists are 5.5″ around. That is the minimum size that the strap can accommodate if you take out links. I didn’t want to destroy the watch by removing links, so I didn’t even try. As a result, I didn’t take a picture of it on my wrist because it looks comical on me. The strap hangs down several inches.

I just want a point of reference for size. I have kinda skinny arms (for a guy) and wanna see how it looks on you.

Thanks,
Anson.
