Great value chronograph by Timex.

2026-01-12    -G L BROOKS

This is a long way from being my most expensive watch but it is right up there with being one of the good looking watches and it is a serious chronograph the second hand that runs all the time is at the 6:00 position and the large sweep hand only runs when you are timing something, many have the recorded seconds on one of the sub dials which makes them difficult to read reliably. The watch will time up to 30 minutes to an accuracy of 0.05 seconds. It is a lovely looking watch that is reasonably waterproof and comfortable to wear. The nice leather strap is a bit of luxury and on top of all this, it has a night light for telling the time in the dark. It's a great watch and excellent value for money.

I really like this watch. The case and back are made of steel and it is substantial. The glass is very hard and clear. The writing on the face is subtly three dimensional (it’s not just printed on the surface). Even the three circles on the face have very precise, slightly raised concentric circles.It’s a little hard to see the black hour and minute hand agains the military green watch face in low light. But it is also what makes this watch aesthetically unique. I am a little confused as to why the second hand is bright yellow, but the hour and minute hand are not outlined in yellow. If you are in sunlight, it’s easy to read the time.I got the version with the rubber band. I like that a lot too. Soft, substantial, pliable. Very comfortable.Timex is consistently high quality for each price point (ranging from $20 resin cases to $2,000 titanium). If you pay more, the materials and details match that price. But, the quality is always uncompromising. And their watches are both simple and aesthetically pleasing.

This is a great looking and very functional watch for the price, so I was very disappointed to find it didn't work properly. Close examination revealed a tiny plastic collar preventing the crown from being fully depressed as necessary. I'm aware most new watches come with a small plastic tab that must be removed to activate the watch: this was not that. Those tabs are designed to be easily removed with one's fingertips. This collar (shown in the photo) was barely accessible due to the crown, and could not be removed even with fine-tipped watch repair tools.I contacted Timex customer support and sent them the photo. They evaded my question as to what the collar was and why it was there, but confirmed it needed to be removed for the watch to function, suggesting I bring it to a jeweler/watch repair shop. Well, the watch isn't such a bargain anymore if I've got to pay someone to get it to work -- so I returned it and requested a replacement.Wouldn't you know it? The replacement had the same stupid plastic collar preventing it from working. This time I decided to see if I could fix it myself. I removed the case back with a pry knife, removed the plastic battery cover, used a pin-punch to release the watch stem, and fully removed the stem from the case, finally freeing the offending plastic collar. Pretty straightforward if you have the tools.Reassembly was trickier, as two miniscule push bars fell out when the plastic battery cover was removed. These allow the chronograph pushbuttons to activate the stopwatch. They're smaller than a grain of rice and sit loosely within tiny channels in the battery cover, so they are very prone to falling out as the cover is put back in place. It took several attempts to get the battery cover situated with them still seated. Then it was just a matter of carefully placing the watch in a case press to snap the case back in place.Once reassembled, the watch worked fine. I replaced the rubber strap with a NATO strap, and it's now a favorite daily beater watch. I'm astounded no other reviewers seem to have encountered this issue when I encountered it TWICE, but I've detailed it here in case others run into the same problem. Disassembling the watch to remove the troublesome plastic collar isn't that big a deal if you have watch repair tools and steady hands -- but if that's not you, you might have to decide whether it's worth paying a jeweler to repair your brand new watch.

This is not a low light watch for people with compromised vision, but! It is still very functional. I've used the timing function multiple times, up to a 24 minute timing of an event, with full confidence, as I had a secondary timing device to verify. The 20th of a second pretty much matched up with the digital. Go figure, different fingers pushing the buttons, but still respectable!The lume is short lived, so don't plan to look for the hands a couple minutes after exposing it to light. It does work for a short time, so if you flash it with your LED flashlight, you'll see the hands for a bit.I bought the one with a black dial, so the Indiglo is "Muted" It has a Texture to the back-lite. You can find the hands with a bit of concentration. Don't plan to see the Chronograph second hand in the dark. It's not easy to find. Keep your flashlight handy. Not a big deal. TImng in the dark happens, but I don't have to do it that often. Depends on the Drill. (FF/EMR) I still give it a five, as it is a black dial! I'd be willing to bet a White dial would be brilliant!When you reset the chronograph, it's got a satisfying sweep to your zero point. I'll likely wear out the battery playing with it!There are instructions online to work with the hands of the timing function hands. Once you set them to their zero locations, your ready for the next go. Mine came with the minutes hand passed the 30 minute mark. A simple Crown set, and button push sequence put it back at the right start point. It's not defective, we just need to find the instructions at the main TImex site. Simple search, and your there!Four days, still spot on the time, AND it is HACKING! Set it right on, and it's holding. Well, it's quartz, so go figure. It's likely more accurate than my ISP. It's keeping with the internet time that I used to set my watch. So far, the only deviation might be me looking from the screen to set the seconds on the watch. I was a second late when I set it, and it's still right on.The water resistance is capable of swimming according to the back, but I don't plan to jump in the water with a leather wrist strap anyway. Washed my hands plenty while wearing it, so if that helps, it's likely to survive an unexpected dunking. I'll report back if I happen to fall off a boat.This Watch looks like a serious timing piece with that field watch vibe, and it's super comfortable. I'm a big boy, and it looks right at home on Farm-boy. Not much tail to tuck under the second band loop. This might be a bit much on a smaller wrist. If you can't lift an iron small block and throw it in the bed of the pickup, it might be a bit large on your wrist. Fits me fine, but your results may vary.Way to go Timex Philippines! (One of my favorite places!)

En general es buen reloj, es cómodo y se ve bien. No pesa y tiene buenos acabaos. Lo malo, la caja es de latón, no es acero inoxidable lo cual es más fácil q se raye con el tiempo, lo unico q es de acero inoxidable es la tapa de abajo. No es un reloj ruidoso. El extensible no es quita-pon es de los antiguos pero igual está bien. Le doy un 7-10 únicamente por que no vale lo q cuesta, pague cerca de 1900 pesos mexicanos, es mas para unos 900 pesos máximo.

Very pleased. Considering the dimensions, I worried this would be too big (7inch wrist) but it looks really great. I think it would be fine on a 6.5 inch wrist and up. Band is super comfortable, and watch feels much higher quality than I paid. My only complaint is that the 3rd extra dial for 1/20th chrono time is kind of stupid and unnecessary. Would be better to have a day of the week dial here instead. Overall great watch and definitely recommend.

I like this watch and appear to wearing it more thanI thought. A comfortable fit with a large enough each face to read comfortably. Watch band isn’t bad and seems to be holding up well. Time keeping is accurate. So far no complaints
