Timex Men's Ironman Triathlon Rugged 30 44mm Resin Strap Watch

The one complaint I hear most often about this watch is it is harder to see in lower lighted conditions. Yes that is true BUT IT HAS INDIGLO so It is not a problem. Most of the time you don't need to turn the light on though. You usually can make out what it says even without the light. Usually if you can't see it then a slight angle change and you can see the time. If you still can't see it....it does have indiglo. It really takes no time at all to hit the button and you can see in any light condition. I have been looking at watches to buy for some time now and have looked at a lot of them. When I first got this in the mail I thought it to be small. I was comparing it to the G-shock series. The ones I was looking at the most was the XL ones. So yes it is small compared to the XL G-shocks. I have an XL watch and found that it gets in the way. When ever my wrist gets bent backwards my hand presses against the watch and restricts my movement that way. This is really the perfect size. One common complaint with Ironman's is they have started integrating the band with the watch. So when the band breaks, which they often did, the watch was useless cause you couldn't replace the band. This one has the replaceable band but still manages to have that integrated look, very nice. I really don't expect the band to break any time soon though. It feels very durable and thick. One thing about the band that I really like is at the end of the band. It has two little "nubbins" that lock in the that loop that holds the excess band in. They really work well. Every watch I have ever owned that little loop moves and releases the excess and then you have to fix it. It has yet to slip off once. All in all in is very nice watch. It works well, the price is very reasonable, The band is replaceable and durable, and the blacked out look is very nice. I love this watch.

Literally the best watch ever. Super durable. This is my second or third one. The Battery will last years at a time and doesn't take an expensive battery. The buttons are laid out intelligently and are intuitive to use. The strap will eventually break before the watch itself will. Though it has all the stop watch features, it's not too bulky. Also, it takes the time easily and keeps it.

Let me previce this review by stating that I have had multiple fitness watches including Garmin suunto Timex and Casio. This watch has some limitations and I will get to them. The first thing is the design and functionality. The picture doesn't do this watch justice. It is sleek. Small enough to not be gaudy. But large enough to look appropriate regardless of your body size. I am 6' 180 lbs and its perfect. The functionality is great. Some watches require a college degree but this watch is simple to program and switch through modes. It has a lap counter countdown timer stop watch as well as time day date etc. It also has more features that don't interest me for fitness so I won't go into them. One complaint other reviewers have stated is with the black background it can be difficult to see display. To them I would reply the top right button is a light. Push it once to illuminate the display. Problem solved. Having a black background does make the display less visible. That's obvious to me but perhaps not everyone. With that being said I only have to use the light if I'm in a dark area. In normal room lighting it is easy to see. This watch does not have GPS capabilities which other watches I've had has. Add another zero to the price of this watch and you can have GPS too. I use this watch mainly for indoor fitness inc swimming and running on an indoor track and use my garmin outdoors. This is a great everyday watch and a great price. No issues no complaints.

Have owned timex all my life. Extremely happy with quality and features, except am not a fan of the negative display, prefer other style.

Watch and service was great. I would recommend product to others.

Owned for 6 years and still going strong. Worn daily, including showers. The only time I take it off is to sleep. The face is scratched up and some buttons worn smooth (I wear it on the inside of my wrist). A few tiny cracks are beginning to form on one of the wristband pieces. Replaced the battery after about 3 years. It has three alarms and I use them regularly. You can choose to set each alarm for daily, weekdays, or weekends. I also use the timer a lot. Indiglo gets used every morning and many evenings. You can disable modes that you never use, so you only see what you want. I never use chronograph, so I have that disabled. Incredible watch.

My husband likes his new watch and it came the very first day after I ordered it. He was so surprised.

However, the display readability is a significant concern, with customers reporting it's very hard to read the display and impossible to see at night. when I read this post, it is exactly how I can describe this watch. It is tough looks durable. I need a watch where I can bang around climbing into attics but you can’t read this darn thing. It is almost impossible to read the time unless you turn the watch a certain way, turn your wrist, a certain way and at night forget about it you just can’t read anything. Not what i expected from Timex and i just can’t see myself keeping this long term. I had to go back home and put on a different watch it was so frustrating the internals could use a tweak this is not acceptable.

Buena visibilidad

Un ottimo orologio, esattamente quello che cercavo! Avevo un altro timex prima, trovandomi bene l'ho sostituito con questo. L'ho ricomprerei sicuramente.

I like it and my friend too

Simple, manly, light weight, and nice to look. If you are working across multiple time zones..this is very handy with 4 time zone selection. I find it useful. Simple to set up. Edited on 03-Dec-2024: Still working perfectly fine! Replaced its battery after 3 years of operation and it is still ticking OK..Just a bit dull LED display. Worth every penny!!
