These watches are great for every occasion. I got mine from the Breo Sport directly. www.breosport.co.uk

£9.95 is not the cheapest you can get the watch for £5 on play.com.

i bought a breo roam watch on a flight back from a surfing trip, looked really cool untill it snapped less than one hour after putting it on whilst still on the flight, really poor design, waste of time effort and money, dont buy one.

I purchased one of these watches in January on a flight, the broke on the plane my replacement has since broken, breo have not been very helpful, cheap but so far not very reliable.

I have had two of these and NEITHER worked from the word go - I returned the second to the company in its packaging and they returned it to me untouched - useless and appalling customer service - do not be tempted to buy - searching the net I see many people have had same experience.

LOVE this watch. I got it from www.strawberrygum.co.uk , Its so comfortable to wear and so light. Ideal for holidays or if you have got Children. Love it so much I have put an order in for 3 more colours. Natalie

Bought one on flight, looked great and was really happy with purchase but every day it suddenly changes time- not happy! Do not buy!

Bought one on a flight to Rhodes - worn it all hols and I love it!.. keeps time perfectly, great for wearing round the pool & easy for swimming... wondering how many colours I should buy...

My first one got full of condensation which knackered out the circuits inside, my new one now will not stay on the right time. Absolute rubbish I think

jman21303 September 2010

i am thinking about buying one but i wish there was a bigger varity of colours

I bought 2 of these watches on the plane on route to my holiday. Both lasted about 24 hours and I was unable to return them on the plane journey home! Do not buy. There are several makes of the same watch. Best one I have found is IMAZINE - lasted about 2 years so far.

I bought one about a month ago, I dont wear it to work (for safty reasons being a mechanic) and when I do wear it the time changes by itself. I thought my kids had played with it, and then i thought they are only 3 and 6. How does a watch change time by itself??? poor quality workings! but a top quality design. If it happend once i could live with it, but its 2 or 3 times a day. shame.

The watch which states that is a sport watch cannot be worn in shower or temperature extremes.So I dont wearing during sport but it always changes the time itself.It is a waste of money no matter how cheap

Seems a lot of people are also getting the time changing abilities I have lol. Irritating, I'm on my second (luckily replacement rather than having to pay for another one) and I have had to only change it back once, fingers crossed it sticks, shame really, because they are nice watches.

katieb15 January 2011

my sister bought two of these watches and it kept changing time for her yet it has not changed once for me...has anyone else had this? it seems that it doesnt like her yet i have worn it for 24hrs and not been a problem

Katie16 January 2011

1st Breo lastest a week and though its meant to be waterproof, it flooded and stopped working when I went in the pool on holiday. 2nd watch resets to 12:00 at least once a day, so even though they are cheap - they are RUBBISH!

adam ross11 February 2011

I bought my wife a brio watch for christmas and had to take it back because it could not keep time the replacement is just as bad these watches are cheap crap

Andy Rhodes12 February 2011

Got 2 of these watches and both changed time within a day of having them. Unbelievable they still selling these watches with the problems!

Rachel Law01 March 2011

I bought one of these watches on a flight home from holiday and it lasted me about 3/4 of a year, and i never had to reset the time. Bought a replacement a few weeks ago, and within the 1st hour had reset itself :( such a dissapointment

The screen on mine went haywire within an hour of wearing it. Shame this product is so broken because its a good idea.

For one pound u can get a copy of the breo watch from primark not water proof but who cares for one pound!!!!

Kristen23 April 2011

I bought a breo watch on a flight and thing is practically worthless. It is comfortable to wear but I have to reset the time every copy of days. I have just spent the last 10 minutes trying to fix the time on it (it malfunctioned yet again) and it won't even let me do that any more. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY

Cath30 April 2011

I bought 3 Breo watches at the Gadget Show live, 2 of them stopped working within 48 hrs (I assumed that batteries were dead, maybe old stock) but the 3rd is still working, comfortable to wear and currently happy with it. Now trying to decide whether to bother replacing the batteries on the other 2 after reading the above comments!

Toto11 May 2011

I love its design and colors, bought 6 of them. it's cool looking but useless as watch, because it never keep the time on time, and display whatever the time they want. 6 of them have same problems. very poor quality watch, not sure if you can even call them watches.

Jenny29 June 2011

Absolute rubbish.Really,don't waste your money.I had three of them and none kept time.Contacted BREO customer services:useless:their answer:take it back to the shop.Were not bothered that the watches they are selling just don't tell the time properly:what use are they!!

Keryn30 June 2011

Seems the majority of people have problems with a breo they bought on a flight! I'm the same, bought mine on the flight to my holiday, worked for about a week and has kept changing time since! Also bought one for my son when we got home and his keeps changing time too! Very disappointed although a little relieved that everyone else has the same problem as I thought for a while there I was going mad! Breo watches are a no go!

S. Campbell05 July 2011

Bought one on Singapore Airlines - so very difficult to return it! Same problem as above - it is not a reliable time keeper at all! Looks nice and comfy to wear - but I have to carry around another watch to know what time it is!!!

JiT17 September 2011

These USED to be great but the latest versions this year (2011) are awful. My 'new' purchased Breo - was sent back twice, kept resetting itself. My son's snapped within 2 weeks and my husband's version just 'died' on him within 2 weeks..... Just don't buy them!

Sarah19 November 2011

So glad I read these reviews before buying my SECOND Breo watch. The first one didn't keep the time and when I wore it swimming it filled up with condensation. Thought it was a one off so was gonna buy a replacement, now I won't bother. Shame though, because they look good and would be really convenient for swimming and other sports.

Bluelazer01 December 2011

These watches look great but if you read through the recent reviews you will notice a trend developing. These Breo watches will break or stop working before you have got bored with it! My 9yr old daughter chose one, it arrived by post and the LCD watch would not set, so returned it and the next one split within a week. I then asked for a refund which has just been processed. Such a shame as they do look good but don't waste your time and your money as you will probably be disappointed. The clock is very cheap and the rubber type material is not fit for purpose. I would be very interested to hear a comment from Breo who will no doubt tell us how many thousands of watches they have sold with virtually no complaints but the problems are always the same, the clock stops working and the strap splits. Just read the reviews and make your own mind up.

Smileykirstie28 December 2011

First one was amazing. Wore if for a year 24/7, only the odd weird problem. Got a new one but this one keeps resetting itself! Might go back to the old one!!

Majorcajoe18 April 2012

Best avoid. They may look cool but not for long as the strap snaps after after few days

Felicity Stockwell20 April 2012

Just got 3 from ebay and not one of them keeps time when on your wrist! Thought I'd arrived home for lunch at 1.30 and found it was 11.30 when I got home. It's enough to make you wonder if you're losing the plot quite frankly. I suspect all the dodgy ones end up on auction sites.Or maybe there's a high percentage of dodgy ones anyway. shame because the concept is so good. However, after 3 bad experiences in a row I wouldn't ever buy another Breo watch.

derek24 May 2012

love the breo idea, does anyone make a more reliable similar type
