Absolutely love this watch, I got 2 one for me and one for my dad. Ive always been into army style watches and just happen to found this listing. Got 2 but wished I got more. Compared the price to some local sellers and this was way cheaper compared.
Bought the black PVD-coated SS on brown leather strap. Dial is clean and clear, with crisp print lines. Silver sword hands match the look fo the watch and has that efficient military look. Lume isn’t so good, but the Indigo light more than makes up for it.
this watch is incredible for its price! Do read the manual as the date does not have a quickset, but is set by advancing the timezone quickset feature by 24 hours.
The lume is not strong, but its there. You don't need it anyway because of the indiglo which is amazing!
Basically, beside the well organized & clean look , it feel solid. I put a protective film on the mineral crystal to give myself a peace of mind. It is basically a watch plus a stop watch. Thanks
Its a decent quartz watch and for 50$ its a very competitive offering. The alignment for the small seconds and chrono seconds was almost spot on, the domed acrylic crystal gives it great character, and the dial is clean and legible. That being said, with the lug to lug, it quite wear as comfortable as my other timex's, wearing slightly larger than a typical 42mm. That being said, aside from the strap it came with not being quite to my taste, it is a very utilitarian and functional watch (indiglo + 30min chrono register) that doesn't try to be more than it is.
I now own 6 watches and this is by far the least expensive. However, it’s quickly becoming one of my favorites.
The face is large but not cumbersome. The strap is lightweight and comfortable. The strap also has nice details like the stitched T at the tip and the embedded hole size numbers. The dial is easy to read and illuminates beautifully. I’ve only been wearing this watch for about a week but have received several compliments. I get a kick from people’s reactions when I tell them it’s a Timex. It’s an almost universal “NO WAY?!”
I searched a while for an everyday watch that I wouldn’t be worried about beating up. I tend to break watches. They say this one will take a licking and keep on ticking. Well, we are going to find out.
Additionally, I was pleasantly surprised with the packaging for a watch at this price point.
Perhaps, the previous reviewer would have had a more pleasant experience it they downloaded the full manual.

I’m including some pictures. I have not removed the protective plastic coating from the crystal.
CSUPhilJust incase you're worried about scratching the crystal by keeping the film on, while the acrylic will scratch easily, it is just as easy to polish it back to new periodically.
Not a Good Deal (Unless you like watches that don't work)!
Received this watch, although it is NOT the one I was ordering. Large second hand for chronograph didn't work at all... had my son also try to get it to function... he couldn't either! The band was very cheap looking and difficult to "use". No wonder the price "drop" happened... it wasn't a good deal at all! I sent it back today... let's see if and when I get my refund!!
