“Very unique watch. I purchased the copper industrial edition. Very steampunk looking and love the color of copper makes it look like it's coming out of an industrial age factory and plant. Sure if it may not excel like other watches in certain fields but non the less it's a beautiful piece of art. Seen lots of bad reviews for straps, you can always replace them. No issues so far.”
“The watch doesn't keep time correctly and the leather strap is cheap bonded leather that falls apart faster than the watch. Got it as a gift, now I have to explain why it's a piece of junk to get the receipt.”
“I would save up and buy a Accutron SpaceView instead, a vintage one will hold its value very well. You could well break even if/when selling so essentially have been a custodian of a piece of horological history for free. I am pretty sure in 20 years time there will still be more 50 year old Accutron SpaceView's on peoples wrists and most of this brands watches would had been condemmed to landfill. I don't own an Electricianz so have no experience of either the brand or the product. However I have been a proud owner of a Accutron SpaceView for almost 20 years after being passed it by my father. At some point I will be passing it down to my son. I am pretty sure the carbon footprint of my watch 54 years after manufacter is now so insignificant too. Saves money, preserves history and saves the planet - the vintage Accutron SpaceView is a true hero in horology.”
“Deceptive Marketing and Poor Customer Service
I recently purchased the so-called "Ammeter" from this company, and the experience has been a nightmare. The product was marketed as a tool for electricians, but in reality, it's nothing more than a cheap watch with a misleading name.
Upon receiving the item, it became painfully clear that the company's marketing lacks transparency and accuracy. The product descriptions and specifications on their website are a far cry from the actual capabilities of the so-called "Ammeter." It's not a functional tool for electricians and the misleading information is nothing short of a scam.
To make matters worse, when I attempted to return the watch, I was met with a rigid and inflexible return policy, especially disheartening during the holiday season. Many reputable companies understand the challenges customers face during this time and offer extended return windows. However, this company seems more interested in sticking to its policy than in ensuring customer satisfaction.
The lack of accountability is astonishing. I had responded to the company's inquiry about the product, telling them in an email that it was a Christmas present for my son so it was too early for a review. Their lack of response was disappointing.
The disregard for customers' concerns and the refusal to rectify the situation shows a lack of integrity on the part of this company.”

The disregard for customers' concerns and the refusal to rectify the situation showcase a complete lack of integrity on the part of this company. I strongly caution anyone considering a purchase from them to think twice. There are plenty of honest and reputable companies out there that prioritize transparency, accuracy, and customer satisfaction—unfortunately, this is not one of them.
Save yourself the disappointment and frustration; steer clear of this company and their deceptive practices.”
“This watch is definitely not SWISS MADE.
It looks cheap.
It feels cheap.
… and they are shipping from Hongkong.
Don’t tell me, you send a Swiss made watch to Hongkong and then you ship backbit Europe? 🤣
My hint to everybody: Stay Away!”
Dear Mathias,
Thanks for sharing your opinion.
I just feel a bit sorry that basically you are saying that we are lying to our customers and that we can'not trust our Brand.
We never say/promote or make believe that we are SWISS MADE or that we propose a SWISS MADE Label.
This is your own interpretation just because we are a Swiss based and managed company.
And from where we do ship, it depends in which country the sale is made.
We have a warehouse in Mexico for the South America sales, We have a Swiss office where we deliver our swiss partnerts and customers and for the rest of the world it is shipped by FEDEX from Our HK warehouse.
If you have a issue with that I'm sorry but millions of brands are operating like this. There is nothing wrong or fraudulous with this process.
Im the proud founder of this Brand and since 4 years we are working Hard to build a brand and deliver qualitative products with a Unique Design. We are a Honest brand!
Now you are saying that our product look cheap.. sure thing, taste is a sbjective thing and we can not be appreciated by everyone. But luckily our Order cancelation exist (10 days) in case you change your mind when you recieve the product.
Best regards
The ELZ Captain
HI, You are anonymous so I can not look at your case in the system!
Bad service? I would be glad to hear why.
We do Advertise our products with clear info on the product specifications and invest in Professional pictures in order to avoid a bad surprise when you receive it.
Then during the check out we kindly ask to approve the Sales Conditions which are, you can return the watch after 10 days if you like but Shipping/Taxes and Duties will be deducted.
It is not written in small to cheat you so if you did not read this simple conditions before buying,
I'm sorry but it is not a reason to Insult us.
Then in your case why it is 120 USD it is simply because you are in Europe (Guess since in US no taxes are paid) where the 2 ways shipping by Registerd Fedex USD 80 approx + the HIGH EU VAT fees is due.
“Watch is great the strap not so great hasn’t seen much ware and already splitting and no replacements on the site ! But I’ve found a similar strap on another site so no biggie just disappointing!”
Hi Vincent, did you find a way to buy a new strap?
We do sell on our Website most of our straps under the accessories.

“I'm a swiss guy. I purchased an The Eletricianz watch. This company is in a town in Switzerland 50km from where I live, really. I thought that they would ship my watch with local post... But the watches are shipped from HONG-KONG with Fedex! This is absolutely NOT a swiss product, just another China low cost junk product. It's a deception.”
“SKIP THUS WATCH!!!! Looked soooo cheap! This was shipped from Hong Kong. It is total cheap junk do not waste your money.... Worse, if you dont like your watch you better rush to return it because you have 10 days to do it. Worse, they charge you freight to send it bach THEN charge you the incoming freight too! There marketing is awesome, but is a total rip off the inside of this watch can be bought for less than 5 dollars so dont fall for it. Nothing from Switzerland here all from China,,, wow do I feel stupid.”
Thank you for your review. We’re sorry to hear that you weren’t satisfied with your order. We have processed the refund for you.
Just to clarify - we are a Swiss registered watch brand. Switzerland is where our business is registered and its also where we operate from. We are not a Hong Kong brand pretending to be from Switzerland. The team at ELZ have many years in the watch industry. The watch industry is small, and our brand is known amongst other watch makers and that’s because we design all our products from scratch and the ideas are born in Switzerland.
Nevertheless, we do ship items from Hong Kong and that’s because Hong Kong is one of the best places for distribution. We’ve found that the local market excels in in the field of global shipping. You’ll find this to be true with most global brands. Additionally, the difference in time zones enables the distribution team to ship items while parts of the USA & Europe are asleep. The outcome means that the consumer would receive their order in a shorter amount time compared to if we shipped everything from Switzerland.
The Electricianz is a global brand so to cater for consumers across all markets then we do have to have operations in multiple Countries, but Switzerland will always be our home. The next time you’re in Switzerland you’re welcome to visit us.
We would disagree on your point regarding the parts of the watch can be bought for less than $5 and that because some of the components are unique to us and we own the patent on them. Our watches are uniquely designed.
