Timex Men's Dress Perpetual Calendar Watch #T2G971


I bought this watch to keep track of time when I travel and have come to wear one only while travelling. I thought it looked pretty good in the pictures, but all I wanted wasa cheap and accurate timepiece. Well, it is all that and looks so good that I have received many compliments. The so-called perpetual date, often available only on very expensive watches, is one feature that I treasure. All in all, I am a happy camper.Buy Timex Men's Dress Perpetual Calendar Watch #T2G971!

Timex Unisex Expedition Digital Watch #T42371


I bought this watch to tell me the time and beep when I need it to every once in a while (alarm and timer.) I work for the police department and wanted a 24-hour watch.

This watch does it all, is easy to program, is just the right size, and was inexpensive. Perfect!

Timex Women's Classic Indiglo Two-Tone Bangle Dress Watch #T2K171


I was not happy with this transaction. The watch looked nothing like
the picture when I purchased it. The picture was a matte, dull stainless
steel. When it arrived it was shiny, brite and did not look like stainless steel at all. I returned it and asked for a refund. I have
not seen the refund as yet. Please let me know when I can expect it.
Thank you.

Timex Men's Premium Collection Retrograde Chronograph Watch #T2M429


Timex makes some really nice looking watches and this is one of them. There's nothing wasted on this watch--everything on it is useful. It may be a bit cluttered for some but I really like it. Definitely looks very sharp. What I don't like--the day of the month is nearly impossible to see. Numbers are so small and you really have to squint to make it out. That really annoys me. Also, the watch has no light, which surprised me. I would have loved a perpetual calendar too but I guess you can't have everything. Nice looking watch, and it's Timex so you know it is good quality. Just not perfect. Buy Timex Men's Premium Collection Retrograde Chronograph Watch #T2M429!

Timex Unisex Ironman OVA Watch #T5E461


I purchased this and returned it. When they say it is worn on the small part or thin part of your wrist, it means the inside of the wrist. For some this may be okay, but for me it was very uncomfortable. I didn't like having to turn my wrist ti see the time. Check out Nike Triax instead. The face is on an angle, is very easy to read, and very comfortable. Buy Timex Unisex Ironman OVA Watch #T5E461!

Timex Unisex Ironman 75 Lap Titanium Watch #T5J731


It's a great watch when it works. I thought I was buying a new watch but it was either a return or used because it didn't come with an owners manual and it appeared that the battary was dead. It turns out that it had loose connections. It now works after taking to two seperate places to have it looked at. I should have just returned it but I misplaced the return slip so I ended up having it fixed instead.Buy Timex Unisex Ironman 75 Lap Titanium Watch #T5J731!

Timex Women's 1440 Sport Digital Watch #T5J961


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 Sport Digital Watch #T5J961!

Timex Men's Easy Reader Black Leather Strap Gold-Tone Case Watch #T2H291


There was nothing wrong with this product. I don't wear gold. The product description should include the color of the case. My monitor made it look silver. It doesn't even indicate if it's a men's or women's watch. I returned the item promptly. It's a men's watch by the way although the size would have been fine with me.Buy Timex Men's Easy Reader Black Leather Strap Gold-Tone Case Watch #T2H291!

Timex Ironman Midsize Ladies Watch T5K030


I purchased this watch with great expectations. After getting used to the watch band clasp and getting "sold" on all the capabilities, I discovered that the buttons were hard to push. Most annoying of all was the fact that the lap counter button would sometimes record 2 laps with one push. Totally threw off the average lap time, etc. It seemed to occur once in every 12 laps.

I returned it and got the Timex Ironman T5K007 (50-laps). First time at the gym it worked perfectly. Also saved some money!Buy Timex Ironman Midsize Ladies Watch T5K030!

Timex Men's Classic Gold-Tone Indiglo Expansion Band Watch #T2M231


My husband is a mail carrier & needed an inexpensive watch for work. This has been a great watch for that purpose, but I must say that he sometimes keeps it on in place of his dress watch when we go out. He loves the watch and no one would ever know by looking at the watch that it was so inexpensive. My husband has always had a problem with watches being way to large for his wrist & this expansion band fit's him perfectly without having to have adjustments from a jeweler. Great watch at a great price.Buy Timex Men's Classic Gold-Tone Indiglo Expansion Band Watch #T2M231!

Timex Ironman Mens Watch T56371


I owned this watch for 3 years

the display is not green like the picture, but black and white. Check other pictures on the net.

It is way too heavy. It weights as much as 3 other watches I have together. I am sure you could use it as self defense weapon. Now that the 2 batteries are dead (yes there are 2 batteries inside), I'll try to sell it for scrap metal :-)

Yes, this is actually TWO Watches, there is no synch between the digital and the analog (not like casios for exemple where the analog is controlled thru push buttons)

WAY Too heavy, heavier than my mobile phone.

Does not look that great this big bulky plain steel frame with a useless crown, and black and white display.

The back is very difficult to open if you want to service it yourself Buy Timex Ironman Mens Watch T56371!

TX1806BK, Timex watchband, "Snappy" Nylon, one piece, adjustable 18mm


I just bought my second 'snappy watch band. I have used my first one for about 5 years. The best part is where it snaps together is a smooth latch with virtually nothing to snag or get caught on things like pockets or equipment. Easy to clean, just wash with soap and put it back on. The band I just bought was given to my brother-in-law who had been using the Velcro type and kept snagging on anything he pulled his wrist across. Now I got to buy another one for me.

Timex IRONMAN Triathlon Solar Dual-Tech Watch T5G691


I own/have owned several Timex watches, usually love the functionality/price ratio of most of them.

This one's a cool idea, like the dual analog/digital display, charged by light should last forever, choice of digital displays including none. Sadly, the visibility of the digital part only looks like that photo when you're in pitch darkness using the IndiGLO to light it up. In daylight (when most people run) you have to hold it at precisely 26.116798 degrees incident to the sun to even see the digits at all. Forget about it looking like that photo in the daytime. On a cloudy day, good luck seeing it at all, because it's not dark enough for the indiglo and not light enough to get your precise incident angle to the sky. In pitch dark, you'll have to reach over with your other hand to kick in the Indiglo, because this one mysteriously doesn't have the FLIX functionality.

Also, the analog hands obstruct the digital part. Eg, if you run around noon you won't be able to see the top digital display, or around 5:30/6:30 good luck seeing the bottom one. Annoying if you rely on splits in either one.

Also agree with other reviewers [elsewhere] that the placement of the SOLAR logo on the face at 9:00 is unnecessarily large and downright annoying because at first glance you'll think one of the analog hands is at the 9:00 position. Monster logo should be around the edge of the dial somewhere.

Close, but not quite.Buy Timex IRONMAN Triathlon Solar Dual-Tech Watch T5G691!

Timex Blue Wrap Strap Indiglo Watch, T75751, 30 Meter WR


Timex Indiglo has been what I use at work for years. I also use the watch when I camp. Always nice to be able to see what time it is in a tent. This watch is big enough for these eyes to see the second hand for use at work. The strap even matches my sweaters and the white stripe in the band always goes with my white shirt. I bought extra watches and one for my nurse carpool buddy. She likes it too. Best value in timex that I have found ever. Buy Timex Blue Wrap Strap Indiglo Watch, T75751, 30 Meter WR!

Ironman Sleek 150 Lap: Full


Received this watch for Christmas and I noticed a deep scratch on the face on January 6. I don't remember hitting the watch on anything; I only wear it to work and had it on under a sweater all day, so the scratch is from what I would call normal wear and tear. Because of this watch's sleek design, the face is not protected from scratching. Also, the side buttons are very easy to bump; often, when I check the time, my watch displays "chrono" meaning the mode button has been bumped.

Style over substance in my opinion--it is a cool looking watch. Buy Ironman Sleek 150 Lap: Full!

Timex Women's Watch #T5G291


This watch is a good watch, efficient, easy to use, lightweight, etc.. However, the bad points would be the color. The band is white and blue so it does get very dirty looking (if you have an active lifestyle) and you can not take the band off the watch to wash it easily. It has rubber pieces that hold the band to the watch and if you damage one while removing the band(which I have not done)... it would be hard to fix. The watch itself is blue and white but I have already scratched off the white in one place and the blue is showing through. For the money it is a really good watch but it does have the one major flaw, its color. If you can live with that...go for it.Buy Timex Women's Watch #T5G291!

Timex watch # T5J992


Positive: Great watch- very comfortable. Nice large digits- much easier to read than casio g-shock 5600. Watch is much more comfortable than any g shock. I like it slightly more than the timex 30 lap, mostly because the time is easily differentiated from the date on this watch. The styling is also nicer on this watch than on the 30 lap timex core watch- it seems more finished. It has a nice recessed face.

Negs: The flix system is kind of worthless- you have to reset it every day, and you have to really flick your wrist to get it to work. It is easier to just push the button, but this is no big deal for me. Also when you set the timer it is easy to stop it accidentally, or split it by bumping into things, which is also not a big deal. And it doesn't have a year setting, which means that once every four years I will have to adjust the date. Over all, I appreciate the comfort of this watch over any limitations that it may have. It is far superior to any casio G, even with out Solar, Atomic time keeping, Etc.. Solar watches die sooner rather than later- all batteries lose their ability to keep a charge eventually. Also- atomic time keeping is kind of silly because digital watches won't gain/lose more than 30 seconds over a few years. I don't see the need to pay extra.Buy Timex watch # T5J992!

Timex T29781 Men's Analog Dress Watch


I was amazed by how much this looks like the Rolex Submariner. It has a nice, solid feel to it and keeps great time. It was impossible for me to get the pins out to remove some links for resizing the band, but for $5 a local jewelry store did it for me. A bit heavy at 3.7 ounces (with three links removed -- 4.0 oz with all of them in), but I'm used to my Seiko titanium which weighs in at a svelte 1.9 oz.) All in all, a great-looking, well-running watch for under $50 delivered.Buy Timex T29781 Men's Analog Dress Watch!

Timex Men's Multi Function Chronograph Watch #T25951


I bought this watch for my son. We both love the way it looks, and figured that since it was a Timex, quality shouldn't be a problem. However, within 2 weeks of getting it, the second hand fell off and rattled around inside. We returned it, and Amazon was prompt in sending us another one. Unfortunately, it only took one week for the second hand to fall off of the replacement watch. Don't buy this watch. One could have been a fluke- two is bad workmanship.

Timex Men's Classic Sport Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch #T2M808


This watch is attractive and keeps good time when it's running. But the stem keeps popping out for no apparent reason. When the stem's out, the watch stops. It's going back to the local Timex Outlet.

Timex Men's Expedition Rugged Field SHOCK Analog Watch #T49281


As a whole, the watch is very nice and worth every penney of its price. THE COLOR OF THE NUMBERS ON THE AMAZON AD IS MISLEADING, HOWEVER. They appear to be white, but are chrome silver, nearly invisible except at a very narrow viewing angle. I would consider the number color choice to be a design flaw in an otherwise fine watch, but Amazon is responsible for how the watch is presented on their website, and they dropped the ball.Buy Timex Men's Expedition Rugged Field SHOCK Analog Watch #T49281!
