Mooneye (TicWatch E and Ticwatch S) are a pair of budget watches with plastic cases.

Description

Mooneye are watches with OLED displays and GPS built in. They are obviously targetted at a more budget market with their plastic construction and MediaTek SOCs.

TicWatch E

The watch has a hard plastic shell, with an angular design. Some variants come with translucent case elements. The straps can be replaced with any 20mm strap.

TicWatch S

The top case is made out of hard plastic, while the strap is made of a softer plastic. The strap contains GPS antennae, so customising them isn't feasible, but they aren't integrated with the case, so they should be replaceable if damaged.

Repair

Both watches are held together with glue, so opening them will compromise water resistance. Parts are not commonly available.

Cradle

The magnetic USB cable does not hold onto the watch safely when placed onto a flat surface. Use this 3D printed cradle to mitigate that.
