You're missing my point. "OEM manufacturer" would mean "original equipment manufacturer manufacturer".
You're missing the point as well. ATM Machine would mean Automatic Teller Machine Machine.

Not totally sure what you mean by "out there", but it holds up just fine for me. People comment that I have a good looking watch and only really notice that it's a smart watch when they try and see why I'm fiddling with buttons to read and dismiss notifications. My only complaint is they try and be clever and detect when you move your wrist up to look at it, so it auto-shows you notifications. This sucks because it's…

This sucks because it's not totally reliable (so half the time I press the button to bring up notifications and it ends up dismissing them because they are already in view, and other times it triggers due to an incorrect motion). I wish you could turn that off but I haven't found a w…

By "out there" I mean things like hiking, biking, travel, etc. Away from a sterile lab/work type environment. Things like scratches, rain, dust. Most smartwatches work ok only if really babied. Interesting to know about the display of the notifications. I was wondering how cleverly they did that, and if it was a check box. Sounds like it needs to be a checkbox or something.
Even as careful as I try to be with it I know I still hit it against things and it hasn't scratched up at all. Wheither that's due to the screen protector (not tempered glass, just a standard plastic protector you'd lay on a phone) or not I don't know, but it's held up pretty well. That includes biking and running outside.
I literally only take it off if I go for a swim or at night when I sleep (I don't like having something on my wrist while sleeping)

That being said, as long as time and notification works I'm good.

I bought mine from Amazon 3 months ago for $180. So not sure where you are seeing those prices, sheesh.
The watches seem to start around 350 euros
I'll take a look on amazon :)

The only scratch I have on it so far is from hitting the watch face against a brick column, but I don't even notice it anymore even looking for it. Even as careful as I try to be with it I know I still hit it against things and it hasn't scratched up at all.
