HearkentAtomic Talking Watch Sets Itself for Visually impaired or Seniors LCD Big Number Easy-to-Read Talking Watch for Elderly

My wife is visually impaired. She has had many talking watches. This one has been the easiest to set, has lasted the longest without a problem and has a good strong voice. It's not as pretty as some of the analog watches but it works great.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Purchased this for my husband! Suffers from Maculate degeneration so eyesight is a problem. He loves that this watch chimes on the hr. & talks! Highly recommend if you are suffering from low or no vision. Update on this amazing talking watch. It doesn't chime on the hr. there is a voice which is okay during the day but, not at 3:00 AM. He turned the automatic voice off. By pressing the side button you can get the voice as you please but, not on automatic to awaken you! 👍🏻Brightness:greatVisibility:Large face & the fact it talks is a bonusTime retention:so far it has been great, will update in a couple months

Great watch although it was not easy to set up.

This is a good watch. Nice large numbers. Easy to see. The voice is clear, easy to understand and loud enough to hear. I like that the watch sets itself. Just pick the time zone and the rest is set. This is a good watch for an elderly person who is starting to have vision and hearing problems. This also works well for an individual with the early to mild symptoms of dementia/alzheimer's. I bought this watch for such a person to help them to maintain a comfort level they were familiar with.

I purchased this watch for my husband who has dementia and can no longer read time. It worked great until the band cracked and broke in two places. I found no replacement bands. It lasted about two years, so I just threw it away and ordered another one. The second one came and after set up it worked for awhile and then, after the return window, it started saying the time over and over again and I couldn't get it to stop. By randomly pushing the buttons I got it back to the SHIP mode. Later I tried to reset it. Then it did not talk at all. Then, after fooling with it, it kept saying the time over or it would say it once and would not say it again. In the meantime I was emailing with a service representative in China who apparently didn't understand what I was explaining. Then they wanted me to send a video of what the watch was doing. Finally I called Amazon and after lengthy explanation of our problem with the watch, the amazon rep set up a return. So bottom line, it's hit or miss. I have ordered another brand.

Very easy setup as advertised. You pick yor timezone, that's all.I also have the Hearkent pedometer watch and love it, except, it has no seconds. That display screen was excellent for my problematic eyes.This has the seconds AND automatically sets the tme. I have a different brand (triple the price) and that has perfect time. This one is exactly in tune with that one. Every morning, the same.The font on this is larger than the pedometer watch but the background on the pedometer seems brighter somehow. This is easily read but in darker rooms, not as much. No back light.There are alarm, chime, talking, etc., but having the time to the second is great. I wish it was solar but it's fine without it.The price (if this lasts) is excellent. If it even lasts a year it is still decent price.5 stars

Great watch. Terrible instructions. I currently have an icon on the face of the watch (it just popped up while I was wearing the watch) where there is no explanation for what it means. Tech support wants me to pay them for help. Even setting the time zone (I am in mountain time) was a problem and initially I had to set the watch to another time zone and compensate for the different time zone. Professionally, I was a data base administrator and operating system analyst so I am familiar with technology.

Purchased for my Father who's eye sight is diminishing, he loves it, it is a great watch. And the price is good.
