UPHase watch Digital, Quartz Chronograph, UP706-150 (clock)

Customer Review

Actually, I was looking forward as watch enthusiasts that sometimes a clock is available for testing in the VINE program. So clicked without long nachzuschauen on the gray clock (there was also a White) before she was out of print.

Even as I was unpacking the clock it was clear that that was a mistake / failure. But in order.

The clock comes in a simple plastic packaging. When you first unpack it scares downright: "What shall provide that for ???". A simple but huge quartz in Star Wars look? A Dachbodenfund from the 70s / 80s?

Positives:
+ There is also a German-speaking guide that explains all the functions adequately
+ Because a quartz movement in it, shows the clock in fact, the time and goes quite accurately
+ Thankfully does the lighting, otherwise you could time and above all the details do not read

Neutral:
o the gray Plastikarmbad is at least quite flexible and easy to put on
o the glass is somewhat obscured, which reduces the risk of scratches

Negatives:
- I have not seen a unübersichtlichere and poor ablesebare clock
- Provides only the elementary functions that had any other simple quartz clock 30 or 40 years ago already
- Not a gimmick (like thermometers), no unique selling point (extra loud alarm or so), no, nothing at all
- Simplest packaged (compare times with the ICE Watch)
- Even the reduced price is set too high for the unknown brand

CONCLUSION: it is never worse. The Icewatch least is a real clock, also of the Casio G-Shock variants there are decent (if you stand on this kind of clock), but here, that's not at all. Scotty, please this clock beamen 35-40 years into the past.

PS: VINE testers are not lackeys, the articles, just because they get them for free for testing, praise to heaven. It was ever select an error this clock for testing. My taste (as a watch collector) they do not meet, someone else may see it differently. However, it also offers "objective" seen no characteristics / features that would make it kind of interesting.
