    Simple is best

    What can I say, lov this brand! Watch looks good, big face, like I like, can see well. Lights up when you push button. Works great, worth the price. Only one thing that I don't care for is the band, it's not made as well as I have got from them before. So think I will be changing that soon. Nice watch that looks great and works well, very nice to look and see time, not like a digital watch where your shaking your arm to see time!!! So am happy with my purchase. And would buy again.

    Timex Standard High Quality....but, Oh well. The new one I bought, the Indiglo went out in 60 days.

    The Quality was exactly the standard that timex set for the most affordable, most durable, most useful, most attractive watches in the industry. I've owned this one since 2022.I have to say it's all of the above WITH ONE EXCEPTION: The Indiglo never worked from the moment I took it out of the box. I didn't think anything of it. I thought it was another diluted standard brought on by the corporate enshitification so pominent in the world today. I WAS WRONG!For under 35$, who cares?It's 2025 and I'm buying another one. I put this thing through hell.I work on Industrial Refrigeration and Mechanic

    Fine but flawed. Good but not great.

    Overall a nice watch. You get solar power in a Timex 40mm field watch format at a good price. You give up Indiglo backlighting for the solar option. The seconds hand is not colored right and blends into the background of the dial being almost the same color but without any contrast on the hand or tip. The hour and minute hands are adequately lumed for casual use in the dark. The older you get the harder they will be to see. The finish is gray or gunmetal coated, not brushed or bead-blasted. 40mm is a good compromise case size for those with large or small wrists. The crystal is mineral glass w

    First Timex watch

    Just recently bought the Timex expedition scout T49961 field watch and am overly excited about this purchase since it's my first ever Timex watch. Really wanted the basic no extra nonsense or things on the watch most of us don't really need or use daily, other than to tell the time and possibly the date function. I wanted that clean basic field watch look including the 24 hour military time, having the date function on the watch was a bonus plus it's incredibly legible to read from any angle. The movement is a basic standard quartz which doesn't have that loud noticable ticking sound that Time

    One of the best watches ever

    I am a watch collector. I own more than 120 watches of all categories and price levels.This watch is one of the best watches i own for many reasons! Firstly its beautiful field watch. The dial is 40 mm in black/dark grey chalked colour. The indiglo dial is amazing in the night or in dark areas. The accuracy is remarkable for this price range. The leather Strap is a bit stiff at the beginning but for sure very good quality. The colour of the case (matte grey metal) is so beautiful that makes me smile every time i have it on my wrist.The only downside is that you can hear it in total silence, bu

    I researched, shopped, and this is THE watch I decided to buy! I LOVE IT!

    It's been over 20 years that I have owned a watch. I'm tired of having to locate my cell phone just to check the time. I decided its time for a watch! So, I started researching and researching, reviewing reviews and truly spent lots of time deciding on what the perfect watch to buy would be. I considered expensive, inexpensive, Swiss made, non Swiss made and after deciding to find a solar, best for the money watch I purchased this watch!I researched so many watches at every price point and style. The great reviews, style and price point brought me to TIMEX. I decided as this is my first watch

    Great buy, you can't dislike this watch.

    Note: If it doesn't work initially out of the box put it on a window sill for 10-15 minutes and it should begin to tick.Expensive watches are great and so is this watch. The funny part about Timex watches is that I never hesitate to buy one I like because they just never die. Although I tend to by some more pricey stuff these days my first watch was a Timex I got for Christmas in second grade, it still works, that was 30 years ago and it went through the ringer. None of my Timex's have ever stopped (excluding batteries obv).I bought a Nato strap for this because I assumed for $50ish bucks the

    Good looking watch with a rugged look and feel.

    I haven't been wearing watches for several years but when I saw this I just had to have it. In a world where there are clocks on our phones, our tablets, our laptops and computers I asked myself why do I need a watch? I pretty much summed it up as this. Wearing a watch is a classy, manly thing and I really did miss wearing a watch everyday. So let's start again with a new watch. Besides, I now don't find myself digging in my pocket for my phone when someone asks me what time is it or when I need to look to see if my if I am running on time to a secret meeting with another covert operative for
