Talking Watch for Women-Elderly or Visually Impaired Watches American-Style English Voice Timekeeping Watch-Ideal Gifts for Mother or Sisters.

It was a little bit hard to get set to time zone. But it is worth it, my mom absolutely loves it. She is able to use a watch again being visually impared. I enjoy her having a "maintenance free" device that I don't have to fix all the time.

My mother really likes the watch

My mom is severely visually impaired and 99 years old. She could no longer see the face of her old watch. I ordered this one as a Christmas gift and she LOVES it! It took her a few tries to remember which button to push, but she is able to check the time and date herself now. And VERY reasonably priced.

Garbled voice on hour and minutes. Had to return.

The first watch seemed to run OK for a couple of days then started to do all manner of strange things like the hands not agreeing with the spoken time.Got it replaced and the second one has been running OK for a week or so now.But the receiver is not very sensitive and sometimes does not update the watch. I have 5 other WWVB clocks here, none of which have any problems updating so I know the signal here is OK. Also the watch is symmetrical, which means for the visually impaired it is difficult to put on with the correct orientation. This could have been avoided if the buttons had been arranged a little differently so one could tell which way is up by feel.

like, my wife is 89 years old and has been legally blind since birth and she has had several of theses watches and she loves them. amazon got to her fast.

Got this for a family member, it shipped to me first so I could set it for her (very important someone needs to be able to see the very small print for setting the watch). When I was setting the time zone was completely off. The east coast was setting as a different time zone and I was in the east coast when setting. Regardless of that I would recommend this watch for seeing impaired, as you can set an hourly announcement of time.

Read easy directions and works good!
