Olevs, which is also a Chinese brand founded in Huizhou of Guangdong, is kind of well-know in watch industry. The digital watches, like this one in golden and black tone, are not the mainstream products of Olevs. I have done very little research about this brand and only checked its website, the watches they make have similar styles to the watches made by Binger, but I think Binger watches have a higher quality. Both Olevs and Binger are like to use a design that opens a window to show the balance wheel on the dial, and many watches created by them are in golden tone and are like using diamonds to make them look more luxury, perhaps Chinese customers like this style more.
The digital watch I just bought from Olevs has a great color combination, which is golden and black. I love all things on the watch except its tiny crown and very thin rubber band. By the way, Olevs makes their watches look luxury, but the box coming with the watch look poor quality, and there is only a watch inside, no other accessories.
The watch has a big size, its case is measured to be 51mm from left to right, the case thickness is 16.4mm, however, the entire watch is only 61.6 grams in weight. I like its case, which is one-piece forged, with resin surrounding the entire dial window to give a full protection of the crystal face. During the shock resistance I made on the watch, the case really protects the crystal very well. The four buttons, which are for light, mode and chrono operation, are hidden in the hole but very convenient to operate. The name of each button is engraved in gray color, which has a high legibility on the black case. The crown is very small in golden tone, I prefer a big rubber crown where you can find on other G-style sports watches.
On the dial, there is LED screen in black to show you the week, date, hours, minutes and seconds. The central golden hour hand and minute hand are indicating the golden hour markers and golden minute ring. Black second hand is ticking around the dial. There is a big OLEVS logo in black on the golden background at 9 o’clock. When you push the light button at 10 o’clock, there will be light on the back of the LED screen, so you will be able to read time in the dark conditions. The light will last for seconds after releasing the button.
The black rubber band is much thinner than the one on the other digital watches I reviewed before, but it is nicely connected to the case, even though I pull the straps hard in opposite directions in the video, the band still stays firmly, not broken. The watch is powered by a quartz battery that is imported from Japan, which can last for years.
