I love the movement of the numbers and the questions it elicits from people, like "why does your watch do that" to which I always reply, "to illustrate that time is relative." People also ask "how can you tell time with that," I then have to stop myself from rolling my eyes as I explain the the hands tell the time, not the numbers. Review: Cool Watch? Not so cool.... - So I'll try to be quick and to the point. I really loved this watch, it looked great, was comfortable, and stylish with my apparel etc... Now for the bad news: 1. The watch was extremely NOT waterproof. I'm talking you wash your hands once and you've literally got water droplets in the watch face. This is not normal!!! The watch was never even submerged or even showered with, but it soaks up water like the freakin titanic!!! 2. The band tended to smell pretty bad now and again. I'm a very clean person, but the band would smell like sweat after 3-4 days. I would take it off and clean the band with a q-tip and hand sanitizer and it would be ok for a few more days but this was an endless cycle... The smell was bad enough where I would have to take the watch off because I was embarrassed, it smelled like rotting leather. (It probably was.) 3. Well last but not least I had the watch for less than 30 days before the band just randomly broke while I was walking to class. Literally less than a month!!! 4. My god I almost forgot, the last 2 weeks I had this watch, the damn thing kept HORRIBLE time... It literally lost 3-5 minutes PER DAY!! Seriously, like can any watch have this many problems??? It blows my mind!!! I could probably buy a $5 watch off e-bay and have better quality than this. Really sad since I liked the design so much. Hopefully soon some other company will remake this watch and do it correctly, because the design is awesome, but the watch is total junk! So in overview like I said, even with all the messed up things with this watch, I still really enjoyed it and was fine dealing with even having to clean it constantly and making sure to be extreamly careful when washing my hands not to get too much water on it... and then re-setting the time EVERY MORNING...even after all that, then the dang band breaks after less than 30 days of use!!! This just sends up red flags to me that it's total junk. I think I paid like $29 or something for this watch on desertcart, and I thought I was getting a deal with all the extra features this watch had (rotating face...). The fact was, I basically rented a piece of junk watch for more than a dollar a day until it broke... Do yourself a favor and go for quality, not looks. This watch looks cool, I have to admit it, but trust me... IT IS NOT!

Very cool (geeky cool!)
This may stop working after a couple months, they do have a warranty but I just get a new one if the old one conks out. They are cool for science geeks "like me", it also gets lots of compliments because the watches numbers rotate. It is often confused for a crazy expensive high class watch by other people. I love it, money well spent.

Almost too easy!
My great grandson is turning sixteen. He lives on the other side of the country from me and at his age it might as well be a different planet. My granddaughter emailed that he was into physics and wanted anything Einstein. Which lead me to the Einstein Watch at Amazon, where I do most of my shopping. Grandmothers and such,always like to give the boys watches, I have no idea why, but this watch was much better received than the regular standby type gift for boys. It's a winner, Moms and Grannies, better than a video game.

disappointment
Cool watch, but it died in less than a year. Disappointing

Relativity watch review
Watch works as advertised, i.e. the numerals move randomly. It will be interesting to see how long the battery will last. Will the movement of the numerals take more energy than a second hand? We'll see. The "imitation leather" band (most likely harvested from the highly endangered Naugha) is REALLY cheesy and was replaced with an metal expansion band which looks and works much better. A fine gift for a delighted Relativity fan.

Good fun watch
I bought this watch on a great deal for a great price. Overall though it is okay. The material is thin and the watch feels very light in your hands. Almost too light though. Feels very flimsy and breakable. So far have had it for a month and hasn't broken yet so fingers crossed. The dial rotates around the outside of the watch leaving a cool effect as you watch it. Overall I would give this 3 out of 5 stars

Fiancé liked it
Very cute, it’s accurate for time and is worth the money. The band is not sturdy though. My fiancé loved it.

Nicht schlecht
Die Uhr ist ganz lustig, Aussehen gut. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Zeit ist wirklich relativ mit dieser Uhr, pro Woche geht sie 1-2 Minute nach, man muss sie also alle ein bis zwei Wochen nachstellen.

Un regalo muy original
Había visto algo parecido hace unos años y este modelo me pareció muy original y de buen precio. Me gustó que estuviera hecho con buenos materiales. Lo que no me gustó fue la correa, que bueno puedo cambiarla en un futuro. Me parece un buen regalo.

Très belle montre!
Offerte en cadeau. Elle est très chouette! Je n'étais pas au courant qu'en fait ce sont les chiffres qui bougent à chaque seconde, ce qui apporte encore un plus à l'originalité! On a juste un peu peur qu'elle soit trop fragile... A voir avec le temps.
