5 Stars Great looking value watch
Great sports/weekend watch. Water resistant features a plus… but “watch” out as there are no warnings and poor instructions that the crown must be screwed in BEFORE use. The watch comes with the crown extended, and while there is a tag to remove, no warning to screw in the crown. I have two expensive water proof watches that have screw in crowns, so I’m familar with this method for water resistant watches, but my prior water proof Timex Ironman Watches had no such requirement, so was surprised to learn the hard way on this one. Watch out, or you’ll ruin your new watch.
Otherwise, I’m loving the watch.

I purchased this Timex Expedition Dive watch looking for a sport watch that could be used for boating, swimming, skiing, golf, etc. yet look nice for casual wear. I wanted a watch that could be read at night without any light at a glance and has an easy to read dial. I really like the rubberized band that dries quickly unlike leather. I found just the watch, this Timex has an excellent combination of quality, functionality, appearance, & price. I just used it a my only timepiece for a week of skiing in Colorado where it got bounced around at altitudes up to 13,000 feet, dunked in a 103 degree hot tub followed by going out to dinner to upscale restaraunts. It performed very well and several people saw it asking what type of watch it was and where I got it. My skiing partner has a similar watch from Tag Heuer for which he paid a small fortune and didn’t get any more in a watch except for a name that most people cannot read more than 2 feet away. I couldn’t be more pleased.
5 Stars Great Watch!
I’m a nurse and am constantly washing my hands. My watches really take a beating and get wet all of the time. I needed a watch that was tough enough to stand up to getting bumped all of the time, was large enough for me to read, especially in the dark since I work night shift and that was totally water-proof, including the band. I found all of those things in this watch. For me, the price was a little high, but the watch is worth it. Also, one drawback is that at times, the crown can pull into the middle position on it’s own while being worn, which can change the date. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this great watch!
