Accessibility report for watchconnection.com
Based on an automated WCAG 2.1 Level AA scan on June 22, 2026.
Web accessibility is a legal requirement, not an optional extra. An automated scan of watchconnection.com found 7 types of barrier, measured against WCAG 2.1 Level AA — the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA.
On this page, the most frequent barrier is "Some text on this page is too light to read against its background" — found on 22 elements. In total the scan flagged 38 issues across 7 categories of WCAG 2.1 Level AA.
WCAG 2.1 Level AA is the standard U.S. courts apply under the ADA, and the law across the EU under the European Accessibility Act. These barriers block screen-reader, keyboard-only, and low-vision users — and every one of them is fixable. Here's how.
What we found, and how to fix it
A custom input control (search box, range slider, custom date picker) has no name.
WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Custom controls are common in modern site builders — they look fancy but break for screen-reader users when not labeled.
How to fix it: This is a developer fix. Ask: 'custom inputs with role=textbox / searchbox / slider / spinbutton need an aria-label or aria-labelledby'.
Some text on this page is too light to read against its background.
WCAG 1.4.3 (Level AA) EN 301 549 Affects low-vision and colorblind users
Why it matters: People with low vision, older eyes, or anyone reading on a sunny phone screen can't make out faint text. Color blindness affects about 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women. Insufficient contrast is the #1 most-common cause of accessibility lawsuits — every Domino's-style ADA suit cites it.
How to fix it: If you use a website builder (Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, WordPress with a theme), open your site styles or theme color settings and pick darker text colors or lighter backgrounds. Aim for very dark text on white, or very light text on dark. Free check at webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker. If you have a developer, ask them to ensure all text meets WCAG AA contrast (4.5:1 for normal text, 3:1 for large text).
A button's visible text doesn't match the description it announces to screen readers.
WCAG 2.5.3 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: A user dictating 'click Submit' to voice-control software may see 'Submit' on screen but the announce-name is something else, so the voice command fails.
How to fix it: Developer fix: 'aria-label should start with or fully contain the visible button text'.
An interactive element (link, button) is inside another interactive element.
WCAG 4.1.2 (Level A) EN 301 549 Affects keyboard-only users
Why it matters: Keyboard and screen-reader users can't reliably reach the inner element. Common in 'card-as-link' designs where a button sits inside a clickable card.
How to fix it: Developer fix: 'avoid putting buttons inside links or links inside buttons; use a single interactive element with internal helpers'.
Some SVG icons that act as images don't have a description.
WCAG 1.1.1 (Level A) Section 508EN 301 549 Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: SVG icons used decoratively are fine to leave silent, but icons that convey meaning (status indicators, social-media icons that link out) need a description so screen readers know what they represent.
How to fix it: In most platforms this requires a developer. Tell them: 'meaningful SVG icons need a title or aria-label; decorative SVGs need aria-hidden=true'. Examples: an envelope icon linking to 'Contact us' should be labeled 'Contact us', not silent.

Heading levels skip — for example, an H2 jumps directly to an H4 with no H3 between them.
Affects screen-reader users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate by heading levels. Skipped levels suggest missing content and break the page's outline. Confusing for everyone.
How to fix it: In your editor, find the headings that skip levels and either bump them up to the right level (H4 → H3 if no H2 exists between) or insert the missing level. Headings should follow a logical outline like a document outline.
Some content on the page isn't inside a recognized region (header, nav, main, footer, aside).
Affects keyboard-only users
Why it matters: Screen-reader users navigate by these regions. Content outside any region can be missed when skimming.
How to fix it: Developer fix: 'wrap orphaned page content in semantic landmark elements (<main>, <aside>, <nav>) so it's reachable via landmark nav'.
This is an automated scan and catches a portion of accessibility barriers; full WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance also requires manual and assistive-technology testing. See our methodology for what we do and don't claim.
