Thank you. These instructions made sense, unlike the gibberish instruction manual that came with the watch. I wish the manufacturer had paid a few dollars and had an actual English speaker write the instruction manual, but that's been the case with several other Chinese electronic gadgets I've ordered.

Since the Spovan is the same movement but inverted I wonder if there is a switch, jumper, or something that can be modified on the circuit board to make this watch black text on grey like the Spovan. This has a more rugged case but the visibility isn't great.

after wear it a bit i notice already a micro dent, the glass looks very fragile, i already bought a 35 mm glass protector, but would be cool to be abel to fully substitute the default one by a better quality glass; makes no sense to have a cheap simple glass in a watch thats made for sports. I also found the PACER to not work properly, when the rythm is high, it sometimes avoid one beep, like if the watch runs out of memory and could not handle all the beeps. There is another problem with the altimeter graph, if you have set in the main screen the baro graph, when you enter to the altimeter, the altimeter graph style is not "full", looks like the grpah of the barometer. But if you have anything else set in the main screen, then the altimeter graph style is "filled", looks something odd to me, maybe was programed this way intentionally or maybe not, no idea. I guess those are my main concers on this watch, along with low readability of the negative LCD of course. Anyway, still a full featured cheap watch,

Same movement in different type cases. Skmei 1358 is much bigger and more massive watch, also it looks more aggressive. While Skmei 1418 is smaller in size and looks more elegantly . I think case of 1358 is more durable and better protects the movement and the crystal. Both are 3 ATM water resistant. I'd say they are equal, chose what you like more. I prefer 1358 a bit more.
