Title: Good while it lasted
Product review: The easy-set alarm is great -- fast and convenient. However, the alarm became unreliable after about 2 years, as it depends on the tiny pull-out stem to activate it, which became sticky, and therefore the alarm sometimes fails to go off. An unreliable alarm is worse than no alarm. Another problem: the leather wristband became very smelly after a few months. When it gets wet -- from hand-washing or sweat -- it gets stinky, and cannot be removed. It leaves your wrist smelling bad too. Cleaning the wristband with leather cleaner did not help. And yes, it's big and clunky, but I don't really mind that. I like this product in principle, but unfortunately, durability and build quality issues make it a short-term disposable.
