Xinew Quartz Watch AU$5.13 + gst = AU$5.64 Shipped (A - black model)
Other colours vary from $5.10 to $6.42 + gst.

These appear to be the same as the Naviforce 9044, which is an Ozbargain China Cheapo favourite. Although the diameter on the Naviforce says 45mm, I have just measured mine & it's actually 43mm. They are most likely all made in the same factory then different brand names put on the dial.
I have looked at the photo closely against my Naviforce and I can't see any difference in the case & dial. I actually like the hands on this one better.

  • Crystal/Lens - Mineral Glass
  • Diameter - 43mm
  • Thickness - 10mm
  • Band width - 22mm
  • Date Window

        I wouldn't be embarrassed. I'm still working through an 805g box of Nutri-Grain that cost $4 at Coles. If someone advised me of the sugar and fat content, I would thank them for letting us know.

              @Savas: Hi Savas, I hope you are well. This watch is not plastic, it has a metal case and a mineral glass lens.

                -5

                @WatchNerd: The watch strap is made from nylon anyway so what's your point. Also I don't think people would say it arrived with a broken second hand for no reason, but you seem to think these watches are amazing and get offended when people criticize them

                • WatchNerd on 22/10/2018 - 13:12
                  +5

                  @Savas: People buy watches worth thousands and put nylon straps on them all the time. A strap can be easily changed as well. I don't think people are buying these expecting the strap to be top quality.

                  Also you can buy a watch worth hundreds & still get a crappy strap or bracelet. Seiko is well known for doing this.

                  Has someone hacked your account? Did you forget that you have upvoted these watches 4 times in old deals. The more votes a deal gets the more likely people will buy them, haha.

                  I'm not offended, I have just corrected you because you said that these watches are plastic, which isn't true.

                      @Savas: Yes for the money they are good. As I mentioned in the description - the Naviforce 9044 is an Ozbargain favourite. Can you imagine how many members have bought one since they were 1st posted on here? Of course there are going to be some duds at this price.

                      Do you really think I post deals because I want members to waste their money?

                        @WatchNerd: I'm not sure, not only on ozbargain but there are lots of comments saying they fall apart after a few months. I wouldn't expect much for $5 either but it is still a waste of money you could be spent on a decent watch.

                        • WatchNerd on 22/10/2018 - 13:53

                          @Savas: Maybe you shouldn't have upvoted all those past deals then and contributed to members wasting their money.

                          Don't forget that you can always apologise for your mistake of saying that these watches are plastic. You don't have to dig in and say it was the nylon strap that you were talking about.

                      @Savas: as someone who hasn't bought/worn a watch for more than 20 years, i bought this one based on WatchNerd's advice. not just because it was cheap; i like the look of it and it has enough of the features i'm after. many watches many times the price haven't impressed me in the past.

                      i've seen enough of his posts — although i may not have upvoted all of them — to know that he knows what he's talking about. he seems to be able to recommend you a good watch whatever the price range. otherwise his username might have been ExpensiveWatchNerd

              Fact is, it's ALL crap. Just a matter of finding the least-worst crap at an agreeable price IMO.

              I bought a metal $10 Chinawatch from a market stall in WA back in 2003. It's got Kabana printed on the face.
              The bastard still works.

                  Someone else had already corrected you (not plastic) so I gave an example of my old Kabana watch, which is also metal of some sort.
                  As long as you don't shower or swim wearing them, they last.

      " Are ppl actually suggesting these are good and keep good time"

      No, people are merely confirming that they have bought the watch it appears to be a variant of, which is good value and keeps good time, as does any watch which has a myota [citizen] movement, on the recommendation of someone who has proven time and time again that they know what they are on about.

      Pardon my ignorance, but have you been here 6 years and still not grasped the concept of the site? These deals are a bit more popular than invitations to submit details to data harvesting sites, as one actually gains a benefit for one's effort.

      Why ever not? By definition, quartz watches are accurate. That is why the arrival of quartz movements destroyed huge chunks of the traditional watch industry. Many renowned brands disappeared. ORIS made quartz watches for about 2 years before reverting to solely Automatics.

      That is something that can be trivially checked by Border farce and the postal services…

    How would it be a bargain if it's never work!

      Why would these watches never work?

      even a broken watch is correct twice a day

      If it stops working, it's probably the battery. The accepted solution is to replace the dead battery with a new one.

    Thank you OP. Added a couple of colours of these to my collection for casual use :)

    Any advice on the best way to replace a broken pin in a Naviforce 9044? Guy at Mister Minit wanted ~$11 for the pin and replacement, which if i recall was about the same as I paid for it. Can you replace it yourself? or are specialist tools required? Pls be gentle, I am watch n00b

      It's not hard, just watch a youtube video to see how it's done. I have done it with a pocket knife, but that could go horribly wrong in more than one way.
      You can buy a removal tool on eBay & Aliexpress for around $1.00 but the steel in them isn't great. I broke mine after a few uses.

      I would probably try this one next on Aliexpress - $1.36 + gst
      For 22mm watch pins just do a search on Aliexpress or eBay.

        Thanks WatchNerd! Appreciate you explaining those things. I'll look into it :)

        If it's just a spring pin then a steak knife works well - as the pins sits between the serrations. Steak knives are normally fairly blunt, so you probably won't cut yourself.

          blunt steak knife …. is this a vegan steak knife ?

    Any details on how precisely it keeps the time?

    Some are rubbish with a 10 or 20 seconds per day.
    Some are good.

    Any info about this one in particular?
