Junghans men's watches Avantgarde Mega 1000 026 / 4510.00 (clock)

Customer Review

I own the model 26/4500 for several years, with mineral glass but metal bracelet. I had gained time because I wanted to have a clock with large display, German Date and then not "Made in China" to me. Because I doubt that the deficiencies have been done by the gerinfügige revision to 4510, I want you here but once mention briefly, because the clock is not cheap precisely.

Display: The display is indeed very great indeed and also displays date, wahlweilse fully with millennium or week, would be twisted without the Month / Day in the English way, which unfortunately is in the vast majority of other watches the case. The abbreviations for the weekdays are also expected to be German. The problem with DME display is that it is easy to read in only fairly small angle and also reflects strong. Sometimes you have to twist the arm very, if not only want to see characters salad!

Handling: The already massive clock is determined by the width and thickness of the metal bracelet with a total of well 160g really difficult. However, because the shutter is fully inside, he has, after all, rarely solved "by itself". Reductions must, as with most metal bracelets, make the watchmaker, unless one has special tools. The keys are, with one exception, when the clock up, which is why you can not remain so easy for example to hang clothes, but the display is constantly adjusted, if you do not activate the key lock. In addition, can the stopwatch bad use and is even difficult to reach with key lock. There is also no acoustic confirmation of keystrokes.

Technology: Unlike some other reviewers I have not had good experiences with the radio reception. The clock is like once a day from, but that beats often fail when the clock is moved while the battery or something is weakening, then anyway. Gladly, the transmitter is adjusted simply times for no apparent reason, so that the clock is slow one hour before or. The lighting consists of a very heavy battery blue light, which may not yet be ansich particularly noteworthy, if you take hold of each light button would not have to enable or disable the key lock!

Conclusion: The clock may look good, but technically and from the handling ago, it is however inferior to the popular Casio watches far. The large, angular design can especially in conjunction with a high weight when using a metal bracelet in some situations be very disturbing. The Zuverässigkeit leaves because of the lack of balance by radio left also to be desired and the battery is usually already after less than a year down. Waterproof, it is also not, but in turn also means on the other hand, combined with the relatively easy availability of housing that you can change the battery still good even with rather limited technical skill.
