Constructive Criticisms and Opinions

There was a problem filtering reviews. Please reload the page.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2013Size: 35mmColor: Brown/Silver-Tone/White/35mmVerified PurchaseI dare you to find another watch that has all these features. I tried and this was the only watch to meet my criteria. This is a very classy, lightweight, easy to read, affordable, water-resistant, analog watch, with a night light and a day/date display.
Its style is a very understated classic round face with only one side button and no phony tachometer/compass or built-up "rugged" appearance. It has a very demure chrome appearance with a leather strap which works well for everyday use at home, work, or even for a night out.
Being lightweight, it does not slide up and down on your wrist like some of the heavier more "manly" looking watches do. Since it's not overly large, it also does not yell out "look at me", rather it simply does it job quietly and out of the way.
It is easy to read on many levels. The numbers are large, the font is a san-serif style without any fancy end strokes, plus they are bold and black on a white background.
Amazon has some of the best prices out there, but even without Amazon's great deals, this watch will still run you under $50. A great price for a rare find.
Some watches at this price range are not water resistant, however, this one can be taken into the shower or while washing dishes without any worries whatsoever.
I used to think digital watches were easier to read and made more sense, yet the truth is, analog watches give you a better "sense" of time, as one can see visually what percentage of a particular hour has been "used up." A digital watch simply does not give you that same feeling. Plus, with its constantly moving second hand, it is very easy to orient oneself to the passage of time.
Timex's Indiglo back light is quite unique and hard to find in other watches. A simple press of the one and only side button activates this glowing light that lights up the entire watch background for a super-easy to read dial in any grade of low-light or even pitch black. I think this feature alone makes Timex watches a must have.
Finally, the best feature, in my mind, is the fact that it tells you what day of the week you're on (i.e., MON, TUE, WED, etc.) as well as the date (i.e., 12, 23, 31, etc.). Yes, maybe I'm a bit forgetful, but there are times, when you just need to verify the day you're on. Especially when there are holidays and you're thinking it's Sunday, when really it's a Wednesday. Sometimes it's a regular day and you just can't remember, it happens.
In summary, this watch has a brilliant set of features you are not likely to find anywhere else. I was ready to spend $300 on a watch that fit the bill, and this one did it for under $30. Hands down, the best watch you can get with all these features at this price-point and even higher ones.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2025Size: 35mmColor: Black/Silver-Tone/White/B/35mmVerified PurchaseI was looking for a basic watch. Something that reminded me of my Grandfathers watch. I remember he had back in the 70s a stainless steel Timex with date on it. It had, for a child, a huge display. I recall he got me a child's version but a child is hard on everything and it didn't last. Anyway, I loved how this reminded me of his. I do wish the date window was a bit larger for these older eyes. I really like the indiglo feature for night use. It is easy to use and easy to set the time. Price is nice too.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 21, 2012Size: 35mmColor: Brown/Silver-Tone/White/35mmVerified PurchaseI bought this watch after comparing several in the <$30 range. I was leaning toward the Timex Weekender for a while but eventually decided to go with this one because of the leather strap (I know you can get NATO leather straps that are compatible with the Weekender, but most of the reviews for those complained about the poor quality of the leather) and because it has the day of the week and month.
The watch is very readable. The numbers are in a large sans-serif font. The indiglo feature works extremely well, but on my watch, the top ~2 square millimeters of the face remain unlit. Of course this doesn't affect visibility at all, it just doesn't look quite as nice. This may just be a problem with my watch. The minute hand may be just a tad thick to be very precise, but it's mostly fine.
The strap seems to be of good quality leather. It's relatively thick, with a nice stitching down the sides. This was my first time wearing a watch, so I took a while to figure out which level was most comfortable. Initially I had to keep it so loose that the watch wouldn't stay on the top of my wrist, but now I can wear it one notch tighter with relative comfort. The strap feels a little stiff, but that could just be my unaccustomedness to wearing any watch.
Aside from that, the watch is somewhat loud. You won't notice it most of the time, but you might if you're sitting alone in a quiet room. Not that that's a bad thing necessarily. It's kind of a cool sound. You might like it.
Initially set up of the date takes a few minutes, but it's not too bad. You will have to change the day of the month at the end of any months with fewer than 31 days. This isn't really a pain either, but if you care greatly about your second hand exactly matching that of another clock you'll have to reset that, too.
All and all a pretty good buy, I think. The watch was pretty much as described. I don't find myself wearing it as often as I thought I would though.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read watch
Size: 35mmColor: Black/Silver-Tone/White/D/35mmVerified PurchaseThis is a great watch, very easy to read. Big clear typeface, the numbers are legible even with a quick glance. So nice to have the bonus of a 24 hour clock too. The indigo feature helps in the dark of night and seems to forever. I really like the date feature too. I confess it took me a while to set this part up but once it’s done it’s really handy. The black watch band strap is 18 mm and soft comfy leather. If I needed more than one watch I would buy this same one again. This is my third timed indiglo watch and I think it’s my favourite.
