Timex Unisex 144 Sports Resin Strap Watch #T5K086

Customer Buzz
For some reason, I assumed the sports watch would have a countdown timer, but it doesn't. I'm not a huge fan of the timer/alarm controls, so only use this watch to keep basic time. My ironman was great - I'll probably get one of those soon.

Timex Unisex 3 Lap Ironman Resin Strap Watch #T5E961

Customer Buzz
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.

Customer Buzz
I have this watch in sort of a mid-green color, and I've beat it to death. Runs like a top, does everything I need. Plus, I'm a scuba diver and have had it at depths of up to 110 feet fairly often without problems. It really IS water resistant.

True, the watchband dies pretty quickly, but I found several places to buy a replacement for an average price of $12...one is a sports outlet with three initials in the name - the 18th letter of the alphabet, the 5th, and the ninth. I've had mine for over a year and the battery's still going, but admittedly you probably do have to take it to a jeweler to have it replaced.

Good luck!

Customer Buzz
WARNING: Timex says to take this watch to a jeweler to replace the battery. That's because you can't reset it and get everything to work again if *you* change the battery. So, it's nice for about 2 years then probably time to find another watch.

Customer Buzz
I don't agree with the other reviewer. The wrist band is fine. It's been about 1.5 years and the band hasn't shown any signs of failing. I guess if you strangle your wrist with the watch then it might not last so long.

Onto the review.

I like this watch. Its got three alarms which I need. Other features are easy to use and adjust. Well what else can I say. I'm satisfied.

Customer Buzz
The watch is fine, but the watchband is resin (plastic) and like others I have owned, break within a year or so from normal flexing. Mine did and I cannot find a replacement band in stores or online. Thus 2 stars because the watch works, the band doesn't.

Timex Women's Expedition Brown Leather Strap Metal Field Watch #T47042

Customer Buzz
Very Lightweight watch that is exactly what I was hoping for when it arrived. Excellent quality and I love the indiglo feature.

Customer Buzz
Finally, a watch for the outdoors-woman! If you are looking for a rugged, functional watch that has some class, and is sized for a woman's wrist, you have just found it. I am a landscape design student, so I am in and out of water, mud, and plant material, but I also needed something that looks appropriate for meetings, classes or everyday wear. I wanted analog movement, with the date, a leather band, and an "adventurer" style to the face. I also have a small wrist, so size was important. This watch has all of these features, plus an Indiglo light, and is even more attractive than in the photo, as the face is actually a brushed black metal. It holds up well to use, and as another reviewer commented, the face seems to be fairly scratch-resistant.

Customer Buzz
Pros: Durable, lightweight, has simplicity and basic functions of a watch, great for daily wear, aesthetically pleasing and matches well with many casual outfits.

Con: the watch's straps are a bit difficult to put on and off when I am wearing it as a perfect fit, as opposed to when I wear it a bit loosely.

Originally, I was looking for a watch with a 24-hour clock, is simple, durable, and good for everyday wear. For $[...] + free shipping, this watch is exactly those things. I've owned this watch for a couple months now and have yet to be disappointed. To be honest, the only "big" problem I would have later on is getting a new strap for it, and I'll explain why at the end.

The picture of the watch on this page does not do The Expedition justice at all. After taking it out of the box, my immediate impression is this is one handsome watch. The picture on Amazon's site makes the metal casing of the watch look whitish, powdery. This is not so. It is a black metal, and in the light, it sometimes has a copper-brown hue when contrasted to the olive green background and dark brown straps. Also, the olive green background and the numerals look very flat and drab. This is also not the case. Some reviewers have complained that the date indicator is too small to read. I personally had no trouble reading the date in the usual well-lit atmosphere. However, if you push the crown to light up the watch, it will not light up the date window. The 24-hour digits are small, but not unreadable. But since I bought it to get used to using UTC time, it was better this way for me because I could test myself that way. The only function I found useless was the cardinal directions, but it doesn't get in the way. Also, the ticking sound of the second hand is pretty much inaudible, unlike some reviews I've read about other watches on Amazon. Overall, all the basic functions you could want in a watch are there and work very well.

Other notables about the Expedition. I have banged my wrist several times onto things and it has yet to scratch. It's also been exposed to weather as I walked in heavy rain and hail once. Granted I didn't flail my wrist in the air to test this out, but it did get wet and still works fine. Also, another reviewer said the holes go all the way up to the watch itself; I think this is so that you have the choice to wrap the watch around something else like a strap or pants belt loop. I also like that this watch is not bulky at all, making it light and fairly comfortable to wear. Especially in comparison to Coleman's women's watch which I got from a local Target:

[...]

They both have the 24 hour clock, lights up, water resistant, and although the Coleman is about $[...] cheaper, it is very bulky because the actual watch sits on top of the leather strap, which itself is also bulky. While the silver casing makes the Coleman look a bit "classier," the Expedition is more suitable for everyday wear for me. All of these things add to the functionality and practicality of the Expedition.

The only thing I will dock the watch is it's strap. It fits my wrist fine, but strapping it on and taking it off is a bit of a struggle as the metal pieces tends to stay in the hole. With all the tugging (when I wear it with a perfect fit), I can see that I'll be buying a new strap for this later down the line. But when I wear it a size looser, I don't have this problem.

Bottom line: at this price, and compared to other watches with similar functions, I am very happy with this purchase.

Customer Buzz
I was looking for something practical and this is just what I wanted. It is not too big and not too small. It is easy to read day or night It is very comfortable and I never take it off. My only complaint is that the color of the rim around the face of my watch is actually black - the picture looks like a metal rim. I liked it anyway and kept it, but it does look different.

Customer Buzz
I just received this watch today, so I can't speak to its endurance, however, it works fine. The date is too small to read but I don't depend on my watch for the date, so that doesn't matter to me. If you want to clearly see the date, this isn't the watch for you. Also, the casing, which appears gray in all the online photos of this watch, is actually black, without a hint of gray! I liked the gray look so initially this bugged me, but not enough to send it back.

Customer Buzz
I think this is a great watch. The design is unique, the numbers are easy to read and the band is very comfortable. Timex purposely makes the women's watches with smaller faces, and I count on that. I appreciate the size, the design, and the price. Amazon is selling this watch 50% cheaper than the Timex website. Very good sporty watch for the money.

Customer Buzz
Timex Women's Metal Field Expedition Watch #T47042
One of the reasons I bought this watch was because it supposedly had an eight year battery life. In less than 90 days the watch quit working! I assume it is the battery as I reset the time several times; however each time, the watch worked for a few hours, to just a few minutes. I am really dissappointed with this product. This watch worked for less than 3 months. I'd originally really liked the watch, the look, the fit, etc., and by the time I became accustomed to it, it quit working. I did receive the watch in record time; however a watch that doesn't work is useless. Apparently there is absolutely no warrenty on this product and if there was I imagine the box it came in and other packing materials would have to be included which, of course, I threw out after I started wearing the watch. I live in the Baja and can't buy another battery for this watch, not that I should have to with the eight years of battery life - HA! Very dissapointed to buy an item through Amazon with absolutely no warranty. Bad Watch!

Customer Buzz
This is great women's watch. I'm the outdoors type and being a neutral color it matches everything. Also I've noticed it's hard to scratch. I tend to bang my wrist around in tight places and it still looks new after a year. When it gets hot the band doesn't bother my wrist being this type of leather.

Customer Buzz
This is not a man's watch. I used to own the larger version and this is NOT it. It is a great watch if you are looking for something with a smallish band and face.

Customer Buzz
I had previously order a Timex watch advertised as a man's watch but I am sure that it is a woman's watch because it would not begin to fit around my wrist. I substitued this watch. It is still rather small but at least it fits my wrist. I would not buy another of this watch.

Timex Men's Camper Expedition Classic Analog Watch #T43892

Customer Buzz
All I wanted was a plain ol watch, nothing fancy, nothing complicated (believe me, I have a few of those). This is just what the doctor ordered. Plain and simple. Minute hand, hour hand, and second hand. But wait, what's this? Indiglo? Cool, push the stem and the watch lights up. Neat. Ah, it hacks too. Ok so two frills, haha. If it didn't have these frills I'd be happy too. Lightweight and keeps good time. Looks good. Long battery life. Can't complain at all. I really like this watch.

Customer Buzz
I like this watch a great deal and have very few complaints. It is easy to read, keeps great time, and the battery has lasted for almost three years now.
The band is my only complaint. As with most velcro, after a few hundred (or thousand as it actually may be) openings and closings, it begins to get less secure. I find I have to tighten it up more often than I used to. Still, the watch is so light I usually forget it is there. I do not think you'll be disappointed.

Customer Buzz
This watch is exactly what it appears to be. I solid, basic, and very easy to read-at-a-glance watch. I like the clean appearance and the "dress casual" look of the band. It's very light on the wrist - easy to forget you're wearing a watch at all. One point off for a plastic dial window (Amazon says it's "mineral") which is likely to scratch easily. Date window is just large enough to be easy to read. Very satisfied with this watch.

Customer Buzz
The title of my review was part of an enduring ad campaign that ran for years decades ago. I'm in my 60th year and have never bought any brand other than Timex because they're inexpensive, stylish, and incredibly durable. I've owned this particular watch for several years now and have yet to replace the battery. It's light and comfortable on the wrist. Furthermore, it keeps perfect time and is easy to see. It looks good whether you're at work or play. Timex, in my opinion, continues to offer an excellent watch for a reasonable price, something they've been doing since I owned my first Timex watch as an eight year old in 1958. This watch is no exception.

Customer Buzz
For a basic, reliable, everyday watch, this is an excellent choice. As one who has an allergy to metallic watches and watchbands, this watch, with its fabric band and coated surfaces, provides blessed relief from skin irritation.
There is, however, one drawback: During moments of quiet time, the TICK, TICK, TICK of this watch may be too annoying for some. Have found it necessary to place this watch far away from the bedroom each night to escape its loud TICK, TICK, TICK when trying to sleep.
But, on the whole, a good value.

Customer Buzz
I needed a reliable easy to read watchj that I could use without fear of it being broken. This watch more than fits that need and is actyuaqlly fairly good looking.

Customer Buzz
I swim regularly in a pool, sometimes in the ocean, and I've had no problems at all with this watch for the past two months. It is perfect to wear for the gym and other activities, since it is light like a paper clip. The watch band is nylon, so it dries quickly and won't rot like leather if it gets wet. The dial lights up when you press the button so there is no trouble reading it in the dark. Also, the hands glow in the dark even without pressing the button, so that you can still read the time if both hands are busy. For this price, you can't get a more perfect sport and swimming watch.

The band secures with velcro, so you get a perfect fit every time you put it on. No hassles taking out links, nor with the "holes" on a standard band wearing out or ripping.

Note that at a rating of 50M, it is only meant for shallow swimming, not SCUBA, nor snorkeling. But it's great in the pool, and you won't find another watch that is a better deal.

Customer Buzz
This is an ideal work watch.

I work in a max/med security prison and needed a cheaper but good quality work watch. This watch fit the bill nicely. It does not have the velcro band like the one with the black face. When this watch breaks it will be replaced with another one just like it.

Customer Buzz
This watch is great for my daily workouts. It is light and easy to wear while I am running or lifting weights.

Customer Buzz
I bought this watch because it said Case Diameter 41mm. Its not that size at all. It's not what I expected from a seller at Amazon to do.
When I bought the Dakota Black field watch I got the large size.
The watches size is a kids watch.
I am very very upset over this purchase. I just wanted a large face watch which is simple to use.

Timex Men's Ironman Sleek Triathlon 15-Lap Resin Strap Watch #T5H721

Customer Buzz
I was pleased with the prompt shipment and the quality of the watch, just what I had in mind.

Thanks

Customer Buzz
I really like this watch, I use it on a daily base whether to go running, biking or swimming! I like the straps because they are sturdy and durable, i also like how easy it is to navigate through the menu. The only thing I dont like about it is the target time feature, i set my target time and i begin my workout, but i get weird times...other than that I love this watch, if you are looking for a great decently priced watch then this is the one for you!

Customer Buzz
I'm a runner and this watch provided me exactly what I needed. Large display so it is extremely easy to tell the time when I am running. The strap is ventilated so I don't have to deal with the sweaty and smelly strap after the run.

Overall a great watch and I would recommend it to anyone!

Customer Buzz
Very sharp and reliable in action. Large numbers and letters make it easy to get accurate splits.
Unfortunately does not fit under the cuff of a standard dress shirt. I refuse to wear a conventional watch to work, so this one is always visible. The band is a lot larger than I expected, but very reliable.

Customer Buzz
This Timex Ironman Triathlon is a great sports watch. It is light yet durable with the stainless steal case. The band is great and breathable.

Its got water resistance to 100m. That means with it's breathable rubber strap, you can go swimming, running, biking, pretty much anything but diving with this thing. Come-on how many of us actually do dive to 200m? We sit by the pool or beach and maybe go on a boat....this watch will cover it plus some.

This style is much better than the black faced digital style watches that are out there now. I find the black faced digital are cooller looking and more trendy with Freestyle, Guess, and Kenneth Cole all seller them but from experience, the black face digital is harder to read and you need the backlight on much more often compared to the grey back ground digitals. This has the easier to read grey dial.

The Amazon price for this otherwise expensive digital watch is amazing. This same watch....the very same one is priced at Dicks Sporting Goods for about $[...]. Sports Authority sells this watch for $[...] and even Target has this watch marked to sell at $[...]. Amazon has the best prices for a lot of goods but this is by far the best deal I have found on Amazon in a while.

This is a steal especially if you have Amazon Prime and can get the free shipping.

IRONMAN* Triathlon® 100-Lap

Product Description

Accept no imitations or limitations. There is only one Timex ironman* Triathlon®. Stylish enough for the weekend warrior, technical enough for the extreme athlete. Don't swim, bike, run, jump, climb, throw, or kick without one.

Customer Buzz
I had the Ironman Triathlon 100-lap Flix for about three years, maybe longer. Recently it began to reset itself (it erased its memory, and the time would jump to 1:00 1-1-2000). I took it to my local running store and they helped me send it to Timex. After a few weeks I got it back with a sticker, "cannot be repaired." The box included a new watch, a Timex Men's Ironman 100-Lap FLIX System Watch #T5E231, and a bill for $7. Although I will miss my old watch, the one I got seems even better (it has the same features, and then some). I am very pleased by the response from Timex customer service, the five stars are for them.

Customer Buzz
You can never go wrong with a Timex Ironman Triathlon. I am glad I found this watch since the previous one I had kept draining the battery. Why change something that you are use to.

Customer Buzz
I have had T66801 for over 5 years now. Always wanted T51931 because of the exact same functions of T66801 but with a black finish.

Recently while shopping at Timex store, I happened to notice T51931 on sale for $24.99. I picked it up without blinking.

Now I have the two best watches ever designed by Timex. I don't think I have to buy another watch for a decade or so.

It's got the right amount of features for a sports watch designed in the late 90s.

100 lap memory
9 interval timer with option to switch over to chrono mode automatically
5 alarms
2nd time zone accessible with 1 click ( many watches have dual or triple time zones but accessibility is a pain )
10, 3 page memo
Flix mode Indiglo
and seriously everlasting batteries that put a solar watch to shame...

I changed the batteries on my silver one (T66801) couple of months back and it costed me a buck and a half...buck and a half in 5 years is one hell of a bargain.

This watch is worth every cent. I haven't seen a better watch in this price range...like the gentleman says above...let me know if you find a better one...

This's one is for Times, if they care to read this...
Your designs are getting boring...

Customer Buzz
Sometime ago I had another Timex Watch, it had 12 years in use, this new model comes with another special features like the bright on the screen, beutifull watch, received just on time and with a good price, the best watches for sports: Timex Trade Mark.

Customer Buzz
Found the face scratched very easily but EVEN MORE ANNOYING was the buttons are abit to sensitive. I find the useage of them not intuitive at all, and more often then not I look down to check the time and find I am in lap mode or some other screen.

Customer Buzz
I got this watch to replace another one almost exactly alike. All the new timex watches are in a different style now that i do not like and i am more use to this style watch. Well for running or bikeing this is a great watch. It has 100 lap memory with date so if you get busy you can write down all your weekly times by date at a time when you are not so busy. It has countdown timers for interval timing of your workouts. It has five alarms. And a message feature where you can save little messages to yourself. All in all it is a great watch for a runner of any speed.

Customer Buzz
I have loved this type of watch for quite some time now I really cant remember how many years now but its been the best. It has 5 alarm settings which I use constantly. My wife gets up to it since she still works @ 04:30 then 5 min. later It will go off again. I have it set then for my grand kids to pick up and take them to school. and then last but not least my baby grand daughter while my daughter in=law goes to work, while my son is in Iraq. and Then of course I have it also set for Iraq time zone also. I guess by now you feel sorry that you asked huh? I can go on and say that I also have it set for watering my grass for 10 min. at a time. Thanks for asking.

Customer Buzz
This is an excellent workout watch at a decent price too! Once I figured out how to activate the Flix feature by pressing down the light button for a couple of seconds until I heard the beep, I also realised that the Flix feature could be deactivated with the same actions too. Although I've not needed to use most of the other functions as yet, it's nice to know that I can if I wanted to. It's also remarkably lightweight and the watch face is aesthetically pleasing and I also like the strap. My only concern is finding a suitable replacement once the rubber inevitably wears out over the coming years. Overall a great watch at a reasonable price. Recommended!

Customer Buzz
Its of bad quality. It stopped working within few weeks. its not worth for 40$. you can buy it for few dollars in garage sale.



Customer Buzz
Bad watch. Within few weeks, everything stopped working. Worst watch. during the night, its not clear enough to see. overall bad watch and it should be in garage sale for few bucks. please dont buy and suffer
