Megir Drum Watch - Unboxing - How To Set - First AliExpress Summer Sale Arrival! - Fun Time Machine!

Out of all the watches from the recent AliExpress summer sale, only two pieces interested me. This Megir drum roller was one of them. The other one is still on it's way from across the Pacific. This Megir is the only digital watch in my collection(so far) and I have been wearing it for about a week now. I started wearing it right after it arrived.. It arrived rather quickly too. Actually, this package arrived from Canada, not China... At least that's what the postage would suggest.
This seemed to be the best value and quality, and certainly the least tacky - why would you make one of these to look 'sporty' - version of this style of watch. There are a few other incarnations on AliExpress, all seemingly using the same movement, no matter who has assembled it... Including the rather northerly priced Red Star version.
While this being a very inexpensive watch, it's not built like a very inexpensive watch. It feels very solid and able to take a few knocks. The distortion would suggest that the crystal is acrylic. This is fine by me. Now.. for some reason the crystal reflects ALL the light with a very blue color... Can AR be applied to acrylic... and if so, can it be applied backwards....? These are questions I do not even want to know the answers to.
There are many vids about these watches so I won't drone on about it......
If there were a smaller version of this watch, with an addition of an onboard light... That would be an awesome little time machine.... Until then, I will absolutely make due with this very fun, not so little.. not quite as illuminating, time machine.
It was 44 degrees Celsius here the other day.... Jus' sayin.
