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!
