got one of these for free... they're good for swimming + cycling + water you're doing... I just wouldn't want to parade them at the office- they look kind of goofy.

Ah yes, a way to relive my childhood by getting those cheap old '80s LCD watches they sold in drug stores and vending machines, only repackaged to look like... something.

Have you been eating that sandwich again?

Just be forewarned if you are considering this deal, if you chaffe easily or your skin gets irritated easily, you may want to just consider investing in a regular old cloth/leather wristbanded watch.

After a good work out these things can really get annoying.

Dear Woot,
I once bought some watches that innocently looked like they were normal watches, but ohhhhh nooooooooooo, they were GINORMOUS watches, Woot, I won't fall for that old trick again, oh no I won't.
Remember that Woot? Remember when you tried to fool me?
You know what good ol Georgie used to say Fool me once, I fool you, something something, fool is me? something.
Crow I say Crow watches that is.

Actually, given the colours I think they'll go well with alien skin tones too.

Highly doubt it, since the description just says it keeps track of date and time!

Dammit I know if I buy this I'll get the 5 colors I hate

Is it possible to resize the strap on these? I have really small wrists.

Think of how much time they wasted waiting around for it to be 7:48 for each color....heck, at two per day it must have taken them half a week to get all those pictures!

Doesn't seem to exist on Breo's website under products, wonder if it's discontinued?

"Effortlessly stylish yet simple." That's redundant. I don't think any effort went into the style of these simple things.

I can understand a watch as functional jewelry but does anyone really need a wrist-borne timepiece to actually know the time anymore? Everything includes a clock these days. I think there's a Moleskine that comes with a paper clock.

It may be hard to find the time in a desert or the arctic but I think if you were in one of those locales, wandering about sans-phone-netbook-tablet-gps-car radio-sundial, you’d have much bigger problems to worry about than knowing the time.

I'd rather pick my colors than the size..Give me 5 random sizes of the color I want and I bet some of them will fit.

I think this is the first time that I've had to investigate whether an interesting woot item was latex-free. Too bad; I would have rocked these things out loud.

My wrist is 11cm in circumference- I assume I wouldn't be able to wear this watch? Or can the strap be tightened somehow?

Here's a video showing a man wearing the watch

According to this listing on Amazon UK, the band is 20mm wide (0.787 inches). For reference, a U.S. quarter's diameter is 24.26mm (0.955 in).

I'm guessing it would look something like this (yeah, too much time on my hands...)



Hard to find much about them. Makes me wonder if they're unloading them for a reason.

Hmm, looks like there is no backlight button. Won't be able to see the time in the dark.

Not only is there no backlight button -- there's no backlight.

I had a student that had one of these. They're cute and little and I'd probably get a pack or two to hand out next year as prizes to kids who deserve it.
