I have always been drawn to vintage and antique style watches. From the parts of a watch to the mechanical workings, I think watches and clocks have beauty that is not only on the outside but even more gorgeous on the inside.
CSMARTE, is a company that features many styles of watches that can easily satisfy anyone’s taste. Many of the styles are jewelry like in nature, so you get not only a piece that tells time but also one that serves as a beautiful necklace. Their selection goes from pocket watches to wrist watches, so you can find a tick-tock device that fits your needs.
I was sent a pocket watch style unit that comes with a chain style necklace. The watch has a black colored metal finish that is smoky and glossy at the same time. The face of the watch is white, which is a nice contrast against the darker tones. You have two ornate style clock hands, both for the hour and minute settings. They resemble a scroll design and like with any pocket watch, you use the lever on the top that sets the time. A classic and whimsical style and all comes together in a gift box, just in case this serves as a present for that special someone.
Retail Price Point: Depending on the chain you choose, the watch is priced between $12.88 and $12.99, plus qualifies for Amazon Prime free shipping.
Product Dimensions: 3.1 x 2 x 1.2 inches
Verdict:
The clock has a nice balanced weight to it, so it is not too heavy when worn as a jewelry accessory but also not so light that it will be flinging around at your every move. The (Japanese) quartz movement keeps accurate time and I did notice the nice touch of plastic peels added to the clock’s case, so you receive a blemish free article when the watch arrives. No scratches or fingerprints! The only con I could find is when opening the watch, it can be a little difficult if you have nails and do not want to damage the watch or your manicure, but I prefer that over the top popping open on it’s own. The clock’s case also does not open all the way, as the hinge seems to be a little tight and I get 3/4 of the clock open when I need to check the time. It’s a value nonetheless if you look at the price and quality of the product, that makes it a fair purchase. I will be using mine in a pocket watch craft project I will be doing this Summer, so for me this is a perfect price for a working unit and what I have in mind.
