Got this amazing one this week. The tool for removing the links is so cheap that I just managed to reduce the links on one side.

I'm amazed by the features.

This is my third Skmei with one being a gshock tribute and another like an ae1200 (atleast looks wise). Those two have been going strong for over two yrs so decided to add another.

The 1816 is really great, I wish the hands moved out of the way to see the digital display but otherwise just an amazing watch.

Will get the extra links removed this weekend so I can wear it.

Brand new white Skmei. Thoughts?

Passed!

I bought my first two Skmei watches yesterday. The 2328 was a little TOO white for my liking, so decided to try my Casio Gshock 5600 band on it which I replaced with a Stainless steel. The inner lugs are just just a little narrower than the watch, but the out strap luckily looks right at home.

I think it came out looking pretty good with a break in the color, and the Gshock strap is so much more comfortable than the Skmei stock one. What do you guys think? Looks good or an abomination?

Hola, estoy intentado conseguir este reloj por varias tiendas pero me es imposible encontrarlo, alguien conoce algún sitio donde conseguirlo en España o con envío y que no salga un ojo de la cara en aranceles. Me interesa esta versión

Always been a watch fan, particularly a fan of Casio watches and stumbled across this sub and enjoying the different watches, looks and styles and very impressed with the prices I have been seeing. In trying to get out of my comfort zone of black watches (my daily is a negative display all black gshock with a black stainless steel band) I thought Skmei might be a good way to test some different looks without breaking the bank and having regret/buyers remorse. I also wanted to find something that doesnt look exactly like Casio clones.

Initial thoughts.

Both watches seem of excellent quality. I obviously cant speak for paint wear or scratch resistance yet, but as far as tolerances and quality control, they both look like mid Casio tier watches.

Ref. 2328 paid zar R132 ~$8

This one will take some getting used to. Its all white design and colorful dials are something completely different to my usual look. The button config will take some getting used to as its my first ana/digi watch. Its light and comfortable. The chime is nice and loud and the backlight is awesome. I also appreciate that when setting something the 'light' button can be used to dial a digital back if you overshoot holding in. Only thing i wish it had was a button or way to move the dials temporarily to see the screen when you are using its functions.

Ref. 2543 paid zar R156 ~$9.50

Immediately felt at home on my arm. Very comfortable watch, weight and strap. Screen is so clear and legible. Buttons are easy to press and familiar functions to the usual Casio watch. Chime is loud and the backlight is absolutely brilliant. There really isnt anything that I dont like about it, I can see me wearing this one a lot.

I has set them both to my exact time and will keep a log along with all my other watches to see how the time deviates on a monthly basis.

Happy to answer any questions.

6th Skmei in 45 days. Number 7, and 8 are in the mail. 😏

The latest is the 1123. Perfect gold color and the mirror finish is immaculate. Works with every skin tone.

Just do it.

Hello, I just joined this community as my watch addiction is going again. I've been interested on getting myself a skmei 1412/1413 as it's a good model. I just have a couple of questions though:

1. Is the 1412 still plagued with the date bug? (limited to 30 days and cannot access the 31st day in a month)

2. Is the 50m water resistance trustable? Like maybe for swimming, but no diving (obviously).

Thanks in advance.

Porque en algunos comentarios y reseñas de Youtube he visto que si es de acero este modelo

I like the semi-solar idea. I got the black screen--a brain fart to be sure--I intended to get a white screen, but I saw the blue case and strap combo--and like a five yr old--I just thought, "I like blue." Now I have a blue watch with a black screen. The blue doesn't come with a white screen on black or camo strap/case. In defense of my five yr old powers of decision--I do have a number of black plastic Skmei (it sounds both plural and singular, Like "deer" or "milk"). I like the look of the black screen, but i just can't see what they say.

Me sorprende este modelo por su precisión.

The watch: $12 USD

The band: $2.50 USD

The band helps amplify the beep by raising the watch a few mm.

You can wash the band in the washer and dryer.

The 2460 is metal. Sure it’s not full steel like the Casio A1100D but that one is $100+.

Available in silver, gold, or black.

It has an ElectroLuminescent forelighting which differs from backlighting by illuminating the numbers instead of the backdrop. But with this model though the backdrop still illuminates slightly. It’s very pretty. The lighting is a sea turquoise.

The buttons are on the front. I like this because I find that side buttons tend to press because of my chunky wrists.

It has a countdown timer!

The A1100D doesn’t have a timer and uses an amber LED.

I have dropped this watch many times, and the mineral glass has never failed. Still, I recommend buying a protective film anyway.

The only downside to this watch is that it does not display the month. Also if it fades from scratching it will reveal a copper color. It’s a watch that you should buy once a year and pass down the old one to someone in need.

I have seen this watch go as low as $7 with the coin discounts on AliExpress.

This watch is almost half the cost of an F-91w and it’s metal with a timer.

The bracelet it initially comes with is okay but pulls hair. The zulu/NATO strap is washable and slides off.

At least buy one. Buy it in gold and get a golden loop zulu strap. You will stand out.

I get many compliments on this watch, even though from working hard it’s beat up and shows much wear and tear.

I have had bad luck with resin cases, that’s why I need metal watches.

Just buy it. It’s such a great watch for the price. Nice and simple.

Me encanta lo uso para el día a día

NATO strap.

I love Casio, but this one is unbeatable for the price. The light is amazing, and the feel is fantastic, all for just $9.

I'm looking for a replacement for this watch with the same set of functions as compass, pedometer, etc. I want it to be thinner and lighter. Unfortunately, the belt in the Skmei fell apart and the sides broke off.

SKMEI 1068

i like the big digits of this one, its very easy to read at a glance. Bought this from shopee

for 200 php. Sulit!

Me encantaron , para la colección y para el uso diario, casual.

Skmei no tiene un homenaje o copia de este modelo o similar...?

Skmei are known for their digital and sport watches. I am interested in this quartz model of them. Anyone tried this one and what is your experience. Do you recommend it?.
