I also ordered one, shipped from China. The watch and the probe were both missing from the box...

My husband bought an oximeter that looks exactly like the CMS 50F. It was called a Contec. My doctor put another oximeter on me, at the same time that I was wearing the one my husband bought me. My oximeter's numbers were quite a bit lower than my doctor's device. I'm now looking for a more accurate one.

Whether they look 'exactly' alike can be deceptive, but in any case, can you give the actual full name and model # of yours, and possibly even ask the doctor for his? You may not get that, but without it, it's hard to comment. And even if the one you have is supposedly a good one, it may not have been programmed correctly to start with, or in perfect shape on that night, which is not to say it wasn't, of course.
