Timex Men's Expedition Rugged Field SHOCK Analog Watch #T49271


Nice watch,the only complaint is that the indigo feature should have been on top of the watch instead of the right side.Every time you bend your wrist the light goes on and stays on until you move,thus probably shortening the battery life,other than that I like it. It's attractive it looks and feels rugged and feels like a heavier more expensive watch,if you order it you won't be disapointed.Buy Timex Men's Expedition Rugged Field SHOCK Analog Watch #T49271!

Timex Unisex 30 Lap Ironman Watch #T5E961


I wear this watch all day (work, play, gym, etc.) The size is nice, small yet easy to read. I don't like the bulky alternatives. Getting watch, chrono, countdown timer, several alarms, and 100m waterproof for $35 is a good deal for me. The Indiglo lighting numbers on a dark background is different in a good way.

My one complaint is about the wrist band, for which I admittedly have a thing. My last watch had nylon/leather which stayed wet and smelled funky after a while. I do like the rubber material used for this watches band. However, the loop that holds the band after the buckle is not reliable. It moves around and often leaves the band flapping around. A minor issue, but being active I hate loose straps flapping around. I've had the watch just over a year and have had no failures.Buy Timex Unisex 30 Lap Ironman Watch #T5E961!

Timex Women's Classic leather Watch #T21693


I am glad I bought this watch. It keeps perfect time and the indiglo function is great at night. I had searched for a basic watch for a long time. The face is easy to read although the date function is a little too small. I would have preferred one without the date function. All in all I think this is a great watch.Buy Timex Women's Classic leather Watch #T21693!

Timex Men's Expedition Adventure Tech Digital Compass Watch #T42761


I have owned several Timex watches over the years with the last 2 being Expeditions. When I began researching for another watch with a compass I wanted one with an actually working compass & not just a digital one that you had to press a button everytime you wanted a reading. I checked on several different makes & they ranged in price from $99 to over $250. I found this Timex with a floating digital compass and for only $45. It also has the rotating bezel, another feature I wanted. Having owned Timex watches before with the only problems I ever had was the watchbands wearing out & the battery finally running down, I new it would be a great product. You can't beat a Timex for quality and affordability. This is my first purchase on Amazon and I was very pleased with how it went.Buy Timex Men's Expedition Adventure Tech Digital Compass Watch #T42761!

Timex Women's Marathon Midsize Watch #T5D681


I love this watch. A great size, especially for women. I have had several over the past 10 years or so because I wear it daily! It has all the features of the pricier watches but is very simple to use and I love the pre-set countdown timers for helping me keep track of my time. Very comfortable watch to wear. One reviewer mentioned a too long band, but I have small wrists and the tab on the band holds the extra length of the band just fine. It lies smooth and comfortable and I hardly know I am wearing it. Durable too. Buy Timex Women's Marathon Midsize Watch #T5D681!

Timex Men's Expedition Analog and Digital Combo Watch #T45171


This watch had everything I could need in a watch, but after changing the time for daylight savings the digital won't work anymore. The light button won't even work. I have had this watch for barely 4 months and now for 5 days my watch stays on 3-7 SA. The alarm goes off every morning at 8am. I never set it to. I can't change anything but the analog time. Thankfully it still runs.Buy Timex Men's Expedition Analog and Digital Combo Watch #T45171!

Timex Men's Expedition Analog and Digital Combo Watch #T45221


This is the second of this watch I own. The first one finally wore out after years (so long I can't remember). A couple of the buttons became very hard to push. I went through 4-5 watch bands on the original. This watch band will last!

Timex Women's 1440 Sports Magnetism Watch #T5B831


There are some reviews for this watch that complain about the instructions not being easily understood, which I too found myself believing when I first read them, but if you read them again, and follow each step as described, the instructions become quite clear.Buy Timex Women's 1440 Sports Magnetism Watch #T5B831!

Timex Men's Ironman 50-Lap Combo Analog Digital Dress Watch #T5E351


I really enjoyed this watch for about 18 months. It was at that point I began to notice cracks in the band. I was able to glue a couple of them until i just gave up. The band was disintegrating on my arm. I did wear it every day, but it saw little or no abuse as I sit behind a desk. Also the crystal is prone to scratching.

EDIT: I just called Timex. They will repair/replace for $10. They also suggested that WalMart may have prepaid Timex shipping envelopes in the Watch department. Swing by to pick one up and shipping there and back is on them. With this I would bump to 4 stars if I could have and if the crystal was better I'd give it 5.Buy Timex Men's Ironman 50-Lap Combo Analog Digital Dress Watch #T5E351!

Timex Women's Ironman Sleek Digital Watch #T5K026


It's very stylish, not just a clunky old running watch. Sleek. I thought it was going to be white, but it is more gray. It's great for workouts because the face is big enough for my old eyes to read while running. However, its not so big it looks freakish.Buy Timex Women's Ironman Sleek Digital Watch #T5K026!

Timex Men's Classic Coin-Edged Bezel Silver-Tone Bracelet Watch #T29781


Having always been a fan of the "Submariner" style, this watch is a excellent representation of the original. It's lighter and the band isn't polished but overall it's a handsome watch that has worked perfectly for me. If you want a Rolex get one. If you want a handsome watch that looks very similar for one percent of the cost this is a good alternative.Buy Timex Men's Classic Coin-Edged Bezel Silver-Tone Bracelet Watch #T29781!

Timex Men's Ironman Sleek 50-lap Watch #T5H391


I've owned numerous Timex Ironman wathces and I like the styling on this one the best but the buttons aren't as reliable as I would like. When I hit the stop button when running it often leaves the chrono screen and goes back to the time screen. This is a minor annoyance but I've never had this problem with previous Timex Ironman watches. Other than that it's a real good watch.Buy Timex Men's Ironman Sleek 50-lap Watch #T5H391!

Timex Men's Expedition Premium Collection Perpetual Calendar Watch #T45441


My only problem with this watch is as another reviewer stated:

The Timex Logo on the watch dial is distracting due to its size and the fact that it is on the face of the watch. I considered sending it back because of this one glaring problem. But the distraction does fade as you get used to the watch.

Otherwise, it's a terrific timepiece. Keeps accurate time, the dial is bright, and the "night light" is superb.

I'm keeping it, but it was touch and go the first few days...Buy Timex Men's Expedition Premium Collection Perpetual Calendar Watch #T45441!

Timex Women's Classic Indiglo Black Leather Strap Dress Watch #T2K101


If you are looking for a great looking "wear with anything" watch then this is it. Classic design meets functionality at a great price. The size of the watch is perfect for almost anyone. One reviewer mentioned it being too big for small wrist and I can see where it would be. Average to larger wrists will find it a perfect fit. The Indiglo feature is a plus.Buy Timex Women's Classic Indiglo Black Leather Strap Dress Watch #T2K101!
