TimexExpedition Rugged Metal Watch
T**L
Nothing fancy, just a very functional, reliable and well made watch for a steal of a price!
The Timex expedition is my favorite watch. In fact this purchase was my second copy of this watch as my old one finally gave up the ghost after 13 years of rough usage. As a senior, I really like the big clear hands and dial that are easy to read at a glance. I also find that the day/date displays on many watches are too small and not clearly legible whereas the Expedition is easily readable to my eye. Finally, I love, love, love the Indiglo feature which allows me to take a peak in middle of the night while camping/hiking to check the time easily. You can't find a better watch for price point.

Review from My Husband
This Timex Expedition watch is a solid pick for everyday wear. The rugged metal case and natural leather strap give it a classic, outdoorsy vibe. It's comfortable on the wrist and easy to read, thanks to the Indiglo backlight. Whether you're out hiking or just running errands, it's a reliable timepiece that won't break the bank.

First Watch Delivered Didn't Work - Replacement is Great
The only reasons I gave an overall 4 star review instead of a 5-star was due to (1) receiving a faulty watch on the first delivery attempt. That watch simply didn't start as it should after simply pulling off the protective tab - I suspect there was a battery problem. So, I returned it and waited another week for the replacement to be delivered. (2) The instruction sheet did not provide complete instructions, and though I already knew how to change the Date, I had to watch YouTube vids to recall how to change the Day of the week.But this replacement watch works fine, and I do love this watch and wear it all the time. I've been purchasing various Timex Expedition watches over the years, and this particular style is a favorite due to it's rougher "outdoorsy" style of appearance with its silver-toned brass case and stable chronograph paired with the brown Ieather strap. At the time of my Amazon purchase, it was also a considerable cost savings over the same model in a local store. I camp a lot during Spring/Summer, and the Indiglo light (just press the button) offers easy time viewing at night or when waking early in the tent. Since most of my camping is by lakes, having a 100m water resistance (330 feet) provides me great reassurance should I slip and fall in the water, or the watch slip off in the water, or I forget to take it off while swimming (A previous Expedition I owned was only 50m water resistance so if water is in your future, be alert to water resistance.)

a great war horse !!!!!!
I like my Timex Expedition watch because I can wear it daily I like its versatility because the size is quite conservative 40mm in diameter which falls into the category of classic about 9 or 10mm thick which makes it imperceptible on my wrist it is very comfortable and uses a 20mm leather strap this will make my task easier when I want to play with various combinations because it is a standard size and I can find many ( a lot !!)The reading of the watch is quite easy and clear in any situation because the design is almost military, the hour indexes (numbers) are applied and that makes the watch look too goodFASCINATES ME !!!In low light situations you can choose to turn on the INDIGLO function (it is a kind of luminosity mechanism that makes the dial of the watch light up and you can read the time more quickly)It has the day and date window located at 3 o'clock in white that contrasts very well with the color of the dial, which is like a cream color, giving it a timeless air.One detail that I don't like is the fact that the bezel is fixed!!!!It is not rotating .....🤦🏻♂️😬But neither do I consider that it is something of considerable relevance, I just would have liked one more function.What I particularly like is that the case is made of brass, a material that will acquire an interesting patina over time.On the subject of precision, it is something that I have to highlight because it is a Timex quartz movement which works wonderfully.(+/- ) 15 seconds per month so nothing to worry aboutIn terms of hermeticism, I can say that this watch has a resistance of 100 meters, this works wonderfully in most day-to-day situations.All this in a watch under 50 bucks seriously....... 😳😅I did not doubt it at any time from my humble opinion it is worth every penny it is a piece of a respected and valued brand in the watch industry (TIMEX) of good design and resistant for my day to day, which will undoubtedly provide me with the time in my wrist for many years.I recommend it 100% !!!!!!!!!

Good quality watch
For the money this timex watch is durable and holds great time. Because the price is just right and you’re not worried about destroying it for everyday use. And if it does break i would definitely consider buying another.

Timex warranty issue
This Timex broke after 32 days of use, two days beyond the return policy for “Famous Watch Brands” located in Houston Tx. Timex is questioning if Famous Brands is/was an authorized warranty dealer. I assumed if I was buying from a non-warranty dealer on Amazon it would be clearly stated. Timex also said this style Timex watch must be send somewhere out of USA for repair - could take as long as 2 - 3 months, then there would also be a “handling fee”. Almost like Timex is discouraging repairs? The problem with this watch? Out of sync, see photo
