Probably the best watch you can get at such a price I bought this watch because the clasp on my Casio broke. Great quality and the light is far superior to a Casio backlight. I had reservations about this watch because I have never owned a timex watch and therefore didn’t know what to expect but I am very pleased with what I got. It is a simple but elegant design. Big up the boys over at timex for real for real. If you’re reading this because you don’t know wether it’s worth the money then YES indeed it is.
Easy to see the time at a glance Watch is very easy to see in daylight, and indiglo backlight is excellent in the dark. Date can be difficult to read, but this version was cheaper than the one without the date!
Great watch let down by poor strap Timex have been a good mid priced brand since I was a kid. No complaints on the quality of this watch. The LED backlight is searchlight powerful. That could be a little softer as it will wake you up if you consult it in the wee small hours! The leather strap is a different matter. The inner core appears to be a composite material which on initial inspection looks like a soft leather. Sadly, after a few weeks cracks appear, trapping dirt and debris, which eventually irritate the wrist. I’ve swapped it for a woven ‘Sniperbay’ strap which can be scrubbed clean when it gets dirty.
