Great Timex watch
I am a watch lover, and Timex is one of my favorite brands. I was on the fence about ordering this watch because I am a fan of traditional analog style watches. I always felt like digital watches were for kids. ð¤·ââï¸ I also never liked the idea of the silicone watch bands. But, I decided to give this watch a try, and I’m so glad I did! One thing that’s important to me in a watch is water resistance. I don’t want to have to constantly take it off and put it on depending on what I’m doing. This watch is water resistant up to 100M and it has stood up to that claim pretty well for me. It has been soaked every day since I got it. Doing dishes, hand washing, forgetting to take it off when I get in the shower… All good. The silicone band is comfortable and easy to adjust. It holds in place really well. And I’ve found I like the silicone band because it dries so quickly when it gets wet. It’s a nice size, not too big, not too small. I have tiny wrists and find a lot of watches to be huge. This is a bit on the larger side for me, but it is feminine looking and works well. The features of the watch are great and easy to use. The Indiglo feature is a must for me as a fan of Timex watches, lol. My favorite thing about this digital watch is that it displays the day of the week as well as the date which comes in very handy for me as I am constantly having to check the date. The instructions that come with the watch are not the greatest, but a quick Google or YouTube search for this model will have you setting up and operating this watch in a matter of minutes. If you’re looking for a sturdy, reliable watch with lots of good features, this one will not disappoint.

Small numbers but good otherwise
If you have to wear reader glasses to see up close then you will not be able to read the day and date numbers very good because they are so small. The time numbers can be read but I wish they were bigger. The only other complaint is it only has 1 alarm, my other Timex had 3 alarms.The pros: the orient blue color is awesome and vivid. The smaller size of the watch face (34mm diameter) is very nice for women size wrists, and the band is small and nice also at 10mm. Looks so much better than the big, ugly, bulky, giant mens size watches. The timer can be set by the seconds instead of only minutes, so I can have the timer go off in 30 seconds between sets of lifting weights, to have a 30 second rest and then an alert to start next set. I wore it in the ocean once so far and it was waterproof. It is comfortable and lightweight. Interestingly the indigo light is very bright background and you can see it very well in the dark. My other Timex only made the numbers light up, this one the numbers stay black and the whole face lights up behind the numbers. Makes it be seen better.

Nice watch
Iâve had this watch on my wrist almost continually for over 3 years, and it has held up pretty good. Itâs survived showers, dishwashing, swimming, snorkeling, yard work, etc., and it still works well. The only issue I am having is that when I turn on the watch light, the numbers disappear. That only started about a week ago.Overall, I think the watch is a good value for the price.

23 Months to Save the World
UPDATE: The watch band tore on the 23rd month. I re-read some reviews on here and see that this is very common. Many claim the watch lasts 12-18 months so I guess I was lucky. For the price, that’s not bad. This watch was perfect. I have yet to find a suitable replacement so I’m just going to buy another Ironman watch! It was great while it lasted. Play it again, Sam. For old time’s sake.———-ORIGINAL REVIEW: I waited 2-and-a-half months before writing a review to make sure this thing is durable. Well, for the price, I can safely say this watch is great. Sometimes, I will go a week without taking it off and it always comes in handy. Especially in a world where it takes people 30 seconds to tell you what time it is because they have to dig their phone out of their purse/wallet/monkey backpack.I use the pulse calculator quite often while at the gym to get an idea of my heart rate with different exercises. I use the timer function when I cook (can’t hear the oven timer from my room upstairs) and also for certain tasks at work. I don’t use the stopwatch feature as often, but I do occasionally on a run or to time how long it takes for my computer at work to boot up…The best function of this watch is that it is water-resistant. Someone wrote a review complaining about how he/she pushed a button while swimming and the watch broke. The instructions that come with the watch CLEARLY STATE that the device is water-resistant as long as you don’t push any buttons, which would break the water-tight seal. I take showers with my watch on all the time. Mostly because I am too lazy to take it off, but it helps when I am running late in the morning.The only negative, I’d say is that this watch is so comfortable and convenient, that I often forget to take it off. While black matches well with most things, occasionally I’ll be dressed up (say, for the symphony) and realize my sporty watch looks a little weird with my dress. Then I take it off and put it in my purse. Overall though, it’s subtle enough to match most clothing. I can’t say enough good things about this watch. A great deal at only $26.

Very durable
Amazing watch. Iâve been using mine for a while – today I forgot it was in my pocket and accidentally washed and dried it. It came out of the dryer working fully like nothing had happened. Really good quality watch for a reasonable price.
