The T1 Tact Watch is the black smartwatch that has
become the ‘do-it-all’ wristwear to have of 2020. It’s durability is unrivaled by those of brands
like Garmin, Apple, Samsung, etc. The
video(see: official YouTube) of the timepiece lying in
fire has the web buzzing. Because of
this viral buzz, it’s no surprise then that fakes are appearing on online
various online shops but they are not the same quality. To slam the issue, T1TW has now added brand’s ‘crosshair’ logo
onto the rear steel casing of their original ‘Midnight’ black model.
It’s easy to avoid fake smartwatches. The
official on-line store of the brand is t1tactwatch.com. This is an American Trademark registered
with the U.S. Government ( see: USPTO.Gov ).
Similar, counterfeit websites operate under
various ‘similar’ names but are not to be confused with the original “Midnight
Diamond.’ The fakes on other websites
are made of lower quality materials and sometimes even hazardous, including
parts made of lead.
How to Verify an Authentic Tactical Watch
You can verify an authentic T1 in several
ways, including just looking at Pinterest photos (see
here). The most obvious would be to check the shipping location on
the package you receive. T1 Tact Watch company’s trademark is registered to
Myrtle Beach, South Carolina (according to the USPTO website). The watch
originated in that location but it’s now expanded to offices in Atlanta,
Georgia and Chicago, Illinois.
Those that get their smartwatches from other
destinations, have counterfeit merch. If a brand new watch arrives from a store
listed at any other global location, the brand denounces it’s authenticity.
According to the T1
website, you should:
“Report the fraud to your credit card company
and get a refund. Sellers of counterfeit will not have customer service to help
you typically. They will also avoid refunding you.”
The case itself also features several details
that give signs it’s the real thing. For example, the rear casing displays the
T1 Tact Watch logo etched on the steel. Likewise, the circular dial on the
surface casing shows the words “T1 TACT”.
A fake watch will not have these etchings nor the brand name on the watch dial. However, many people don’t take the time to notice these details and end up falling for a similar product which won’t meet the high standards of a real T1 tactical watch. The difference is clear however to some, as they have left reviews about the difference on facebook (go here: @T1TactWatch).
Black Smartwatch like 007, It Can Do-It-All
Few smartwatches deliver so many features
& reliable durability at so low a cost. Despite the T1’s simple appearance,
it has many apps for everything you may need. These include a stopwatch,
passometer, backlight, remote camera, data analysis, and Android and IOS compatibility.
The watch is also military-inspired. This
signifies the materials used to create teh smartwatch can withstand more than your regular watch.
The casing features a durable Gorilla glass and a heavy-duty stainless steel
case.
The T1 tactical
watch ‘Midnight Diamond’ has a suggested retail price of $169.99. However,
the brand has not pushed their on-line price that high yet. It can still be purchased for $89.99
today. Shipping is also free for
US-clients. It is only $23 for clients
with international delivery addresses.
The price of this popular black smartwatch is $89 today but it may change soon. Fans of the brand can testify that the classic ‘007’ style watch was only $69.99 this time last year. The $20 price increase has come with announcements of internal technology upgrades and external brandings. The T1 Tact Watch logo itself has become somewhat of a status symbol for the tactical career field workers and athletes.
