English Atomic Talking Watch, Easy to use for Seniors Blind Men Women, Loud Talking Watch with Sound for Vision Impaired, Watches for Elderly Women, Blind People Products 1026 (BLACK)

My father has Macular Degeneration and Glaucoma and has been steadily losing his vision over the past few years. I initially purchased this watch for him in 2017 when he was 84 years old. He immediately fell in love with this watch! The voice is very clear and loud enough for him to hear it, so easy to use by just pushing a conveniently placed button. He wore that watch every day and probably pushed the time and day/date buttons 100 times a day. He would show it off in waiting rooms at various Dr. appointments and at grocery stores and likely generated a lot of sales for this company. That first watch lasted 5 years. In 2022 I purchased this same watch as a replacement, 2 years later, he wears it daily and the watch still works. I can't even overstate the value of this watch in terms of joy and sense of freedom it has given my dad. However, while the Atomic feature is great there is one quirk for states that do not do follow the daylight savings change (at least in AZ). When ever a time change has occurred my dad has had to manually make a change to get the correct time. His vision decline has him limited to low level peripheral and this task has become increasingly difficult for him over the years. My husband has helped but my dad is a very proud man and likes to be able to things on his own. I saw my dad yesterday and he had fidgeted with the watch and it was way off time wise. I know part of it is his vision and I think the watch may also need a new battery. At his point I'm going to try purchasing a non-atomic version for him to lessen his frustration. I will of course take his current watch and put a new battery in it so it will be available as a back up. This really is an amazing watch and my husband and I joke that it's likely one of the single best, most used gifts we've ever given him. I highly recommend this watch for it's general ease of use, clear speech and true joy and sense of freedom it gives to it's users.

An excellent choice for someone losing their sight. Easy to set up and use.

Very easy to set up. Works very well, keeps time well. Voice could be some louder. Hard for elderly to hear.

Bought watch for my blind brother. Worked great for two months then buttons quit working. Waste of money. Had it three months’

I purchased this watch for my 94 year old father. He is blind, hard of hearing, and has limited manual dexterity. He rejected an earlier talking watch purchase - unable to hear it. He loves this watch. Audible and easy to activate. Sensible design - speaker on front of watch, voice activation button easily accessible and only button on front of watch, no mechanical watch movement (eliminating a possible point of failure). Be aware a sighted person who can follow written instructions is needed to set the time zone. Don't expect an elderly visually impaired person to be able to setup the watch. I don't consider this to be a problem. Either the caregiver can do the setup or the caregiver can find someone to do the setup. A good choice at a reasonable price.

It’s a great watch. You definitely need the instructions to program it tho. My daughter is blind and it is so helpful to her. Very comfortable band.

I got this for my father who has recently lost his vision and of course being 88 years old the hearing is not super either. He has some trouble feeling the flatish button to push and the voice sounds Brittish and low not very clear at all. No way to adjust volume and just an FYI I have clear skies and this never resets or find the radio frequency, have to manually set many times he cant see to not hit wrong button.

Exactly what I was looking for! This watch is a beauty in function, if not in design. The instructions are simple and easy to follow - but they are instructions and must be followed exactly. I left off the last step (confirm your choice) in setting the time zone and the time zone reverted to the factory setting. A re-reading of the instructions showed I had not confirmed my choice and I repeated the procedure. I also have an "Atomic" weather station/clock and since we are on the fringe of the time signal reception area, I have to move it to a window for it to receive the time signal. This watch updates nearly every night wherever I am in the house at 3AM. I get more positive comments on this watch than I ever did with my Rolex (which I could not read the date on), and my daughter officially conceded that I have one-upped her new Apple watch. I can not where a watch with a clasp or a buckle. My wrists expand and contract so that the band is either too tight or the watch slips around my wrist. I knew when I bought it that the band would have to go, and I hoped I would be able to change it. I had just returned a watch to a department store because the band could not be changed. Huzaah! This watch is now sporting the band from my Rolex and I have never been more satisfied with any watch I have ever owned.
