Great watch. Lots of visibility and accuracy. Comfortable to wear all day.
Looks great too.
I purchased this watch hoping for a basic timepiece that would provide me with at least a couple of years of dependable service. The price was right, the watch was handsome looking (based on Amazon's photo), and I was excited about using the "Indiglo" night-light feature.
The watch arrived and I was pleased with how it looked, though I had hoped the watch face would be larger. It's definitely a man's watch, though my subjective feeling is that the face should be somewhat larger. The instructions were certainly simple enough, and I soon had the watch set up and ready to show off. The best feature, I surmised, was the aforementioned Indiglo night-light, which is activated by pressing the watch's crown in.
I went out that evening to join a couple of friends for drinks at a local watering hole. I showed them the watch and illustrated the Indiglo feature. The both shared my sentiments concerning the watch's design and thought the Indiglo lighting was exceptional. I went to the restroom at some juncture during the night and washed my hands. Immediately afterwards, the Indiglo light refused to come on when activated, and still will not some nine days later.
The watch still looks great and the time seems to be keeping pace, but I'm still disappointed that the Indiglo light would extinguish itself forever after a single hand washing. The watch is evidently capable of being submerged to a depth of 50 meters, so I can't imagine why this would have happened.
I had a previous Expedition watch that lasted many years and served me well. I purchased this new version and so far haven't been disappointed. If you're looking for a basic watch that tells time and has a backlight, I don't think you can go wrong for the money.
Great watch for agreat price.I was my hands frequently, so water resistant is good option for me. I also work nights so having the Indiglo is a great perk. I have a previous Timex and I was pleased with it, I expect I will get many good years with this one.
Just the basics, the indiglo is a nice feature especially when I'm on a night shift. I have owned 2 of these so I do like the watch, but the band has been a problem both times. The loops that hold the band end have broken 2x after several months of wear. This may be the fact that I leave my watch on when showering.
I've upgraded to an Invicta 3268.
