If you buy their more expensive products (in other words, those typically found at prices greater than $50.00 list) I'd say they're very good. I bought an Armitron digital/analog watch in the early '90's to serve as a back up watch when the batteries would go out no my Seiko (which cost nearly 5 times as much). The Seiko, which was my daily watch for nearly 20 years finally died, but the Armitron is still running. Granted, it hasn't been subjected to the abuse and day to day use the Seiko did, but the fact that it's kept running, needing only battery replacements and no servicing says something. The watch also keeps very accurate time, losing about 5 seconds/month. This back up Armitron that I bought originally listed for $59.95, but it was a close out when I bought it and got it for $39.95.

I had another Armitron prior to the Seiko and the later "back up" Armitron, and it was great as well .... until it fell into the Atlantic Ocean (hardly Armitron's fault!!).

I wouldn't hesitate to buy one of their better quality pieces at all.

What is the value of a Watch-it men's watch?

Depends. It can have a retail sale of around ten dollars.... or it could be worth a few hundred. It's different depending on the watch itself. I sell watches in retail. We have the same brand offering fifteen dollar watches and 130 watches. There are some brands that exclusively make nicer watches... but Watch-it, Timex, Casio, Armitron.... many make items at both ends of the price spectrum.
