Smartwatch


Recommended Posts

I got this smart watch off ebay about 6 weeks ago for blood pressure, heart rate etc. My problem is when I work up a sweat the dial shows up a milky bloom, there is also some spots on the glass inside fungus?? and also what looks like the processor ? over heating??  and shows up when the dial is not showing time etc..I have got a couple of photos to show, best I can get that shows what is actually  happening... I emailed the seller and he said to send some photos which I did he cam back with can I take it to a watch repairer for them to check, surely the cost of fixing if it can be fixed will cost more than the £30 I paid for it..Am I right to say I don't want this watch repaired of replaced and ask for my money back. I know it's only £30 but know this can't be fixed or can it, I know nothing about watches..

Thanks for any help.. Len

Take the back off,set the watch in the sun.inspect gasket or for lack thereof. Replace or properly reinstall.

Hi,

 

Thanks for getting back to me and for the advice, I will try that now. I did not want to take the watch apart in case it invalidates the warranty, but just been informed that there is NO warrany, only for the first 30 days, Chineese rubbish. I know this is not our usual mechanical watches I only got this for the blood pressure and heart rate etc was not expecting them to say no warranty is given, I though all new goods had 1 years warranty..I will not be buying from them again,

 

Thanks again

Len

Smart watches are the kind of thing that you need to order from the store. And only after you read the reviews on them. On ebey you could slip a defective watch. Unfortunately, this happens. I'd buy new ones if I were you. For example, I have a Michael Kors Sofie Smartwatch. I chose them very carefully and bought them only after reading the review on find your smartwatch. You can certainly fix them, but they will already be bad.

    • people be honest.... Swatch is evil for the watchmakers and repairers, BUT not everything in watches from Switzerland is from the Swatch-Group. As far as i know, Selitta got sacked by Swatch as a Movement-Assembler for them and they started to produce Movements in their own Name with slight Modifications. As far as i know, they sell Parts to the Market for their Movements. In most cases, if a ETA-Movement fails, it is a valid Option to replace it with a Selitta Movement, which i consider the Solution for this Mess with the Swatch-Group...... I have no Connection to anybody at Selitta, but being a Swiss-Guy, i still like to have Swiss-Made Watches, but not from the Swatch-Group.   ok ? regards, Ernst
    • Just one more greedy act by Swatch. They started a number of years ago here in the US..cutting off supplies to watchmakers that could build complications that many Swatch houses couldn't even touch. Old school masters who had gone through some of the most prestigious houses in the world. Otto Frei has some statements on their page about it. I tell all my customers to avoid new Swiss watches like the plague,..unless they just want an older one in their collection that still has some parts out on the market, or they have really deep pockets and don't mind waiting months and paying through the nose to get it back. Plenty of others to choose from..IE Seiko,..or other non-swiss brands Even a number of Chinese brands are catching up with the Swiss,..and I think that in time, their actions will be their downfall
    • Yes. If that's not what you are experiencing...start looking for something rubbing. A 1st guess is that one of the hands is rubbing against the hole in the center of the dial. Especially if you now have lower amplitude in face up/ face down positions.
    • Once a movement has the dial and hands put back and it is recased, would you expect the assembled watch to have the same amplitude as when the movement is in a movement holder and is without hands and dial? Thanks
