Summary: Reliable watch with useful features
Comment: Reliable watch has withstood two deployments to Iraq, among other things, and still works great. Date, alarm, indiglo, stopwatch, and dual time zone features have been very useful. Plastic parts aren't colored all the way through and are wearing off on some edges, but that's absolutely acceptable given the wear I've put on it. The face is still clear with no major scratches despite my scraping it against everything. I don't think you can beat the durability and functionality of this watch for the price.

Summary: I've gotten better watches in a Happy Meal
Comment: I really liked this watch at first, although I thought there was an excessive amount of button-pushing involved to use any of the functions. It is supposedly water resistant, but after a particularly sweaty work-out, I noticed condensation inside the lens, and so I didn't let it get moist again. I've had it all of *six months,* and it died. Took it apart and it is full of crud. I've never seen a cheaper watch. It's not even worth it to send it in for a warranty replacement.

Summary: Willing to try another
Comment: Bought this watch back in May to use at the pool on the weekends, but loved the alarm and started wearing it at night (then switched back to the dress watch for work). Unfortunately, it fogged up with water, the digital numbers started fading and the alarm no longer works. Oh well, for the price, I guess a few months' work is OK. I am going to buy another one rather than send it back to TIMEX......... It appears that you have to pay $7.00 S/H which makes me just want to throw this out and order a new one (or two).

Summary: Perfectly Practical
Comment: I wear this watch almost every day and have found it durable and reliable and useful. I use the alarm on it every day to help me remember appointments, the stopwatch comes in handy all the time, and the large numbers help me see it even when my eyes are tired. Great watch!

Summary: overall good deal but for beginner or intermediate runners
Comment: This is a a very attractive watch which is definitely a plus. Also, the watch is relatively easy to use. However there a few drawbacks. For example, after thirty minutes, the watch no longer records seconds, only minutes. This unfortunately makes this watch futile unless you are a beginner and are not too concerned with precision. I wouldn't recommend this watch for a serious or experienced runner. ( I am a sprinter that has taken up cross country thus i found this watch served its purpose considering I was running cross country to improve in sprinting events). Another major drawback is the lack of directions with the watch. I mean I understand the watch is only twenty bucks but can I get some fricking directions????!!!
