My surprise is that no one has noticed that the band discolors when perfumes and body sprays are being sprayed on it. A perfume spray hole is located on the back of the band, right where you There have been many brands of perfume I've had this problem with, and I wear it every day. The only watches I buy now are black ones. As well, if hand sanitizer has an alcohol base, that will cause it as well.
I bought this for my ten-year-old daughter and she loves it. The size of the file is fine in my opinion.
The watch is just a simple timepiece. In addition to telling the time and date, it also tells the A watch like this is not for someone who is looking to get something other than an old-fashioned watch.
I've been looking everywhere but have not been able to find one. Therefore, I had to get a band that was small enough for me. You might be able to pass.

It had been over a year since I was attached by the wrist to this watch. I had owned this watch for less than a year, but during the 13 months that I owned it I participated in 2 weekend army combat trainings, a one month army officers training in the summer, an 8 week army training course, and a 16 week military training course. It was a 5 mile Spartan race and I was heavily clothed. This means I rarely or never take my watch off. Then and now. During showers, grenade courses, and sand crawls, this watch was there with me on every adventure. Hence, when I woke up one morning to find out the band of my watch was broken, I was more upset about losing something constant and expected to get my money's worth. But I totally gained more than I gave. I'm buying another one now, so please excuse me while I do that.
In addition, I have tried a smartwatch and a fitness tracker The reality is that I don't want to remember to remove it in the tub or the pool, I want numerals that are large enough for me to read, and an easy to be able to set watch that I can figure out on my own without having to go to YouTube. (I realize I'm over 70, but no young person would order anything this foolish. In any case, I'm a techie). I have heard of this brand previously but at a great price.
". Exactly what I needed. I am used to Ironman watches like this that usually sell for 50-100 dollars There was a 60$ price difference and I thought this one was The error I made was mine. Here are some differences between it and the original. It has a black face and its nightlight lights up the entire back. Compared to the other more expensive watch, the numbers on the other light up and make it easier to see in the There are three alarms that can be programmed on the nicer watch. There is only one alarm that can be set on this watch. I don't have anything else to say. The program is pretty cool. The watch shows the date and has an alarm, so I bought it so it could show the date and So far, all I have found is this one. I would love it if it was smaller, more "pretty" and less "sporty". As well, you are hardly able to tell what the design on the face is since it appears to be the difference between matte and gloss, rather than Maybe it's matte paint over a gloss surface, so when you look at it from a specific angle you can see it only in certain light conditions. It is also almost neon yellow, so it can be seen no matter what side you look at it from. There is a yellow circle around the M and a yellow spot on it. For me to see the pretty design on the face, I have to look up close and observe it from various angles. The yellow would be better if it were a different color, since I don't like neon yellow, however I could not find something else similar. My overall impression is that it works well and I am happy with it. All is fine with the alarm, it's loud, normal, and it's working well. However, the band gets dirty and has a gray tint to it, which is because it is also matte. In general, I find that not too bothersome. The present watch has been my favorite for a decade or so and every couple of years I replace the battery Whenever I wear the band, the plastic breaks within three years and I have to buy I chose the cheaper one this time because it was less expensive, but I really liked the back light of the other one.
Watches like this are awesome! You cannot push the buttons underwater, but it does most of what I want it to do. This was what I was told by the company, but I really wanted to be able to push the buttons underwater (to count laps), so I decided to give it a try. Guess what? You're right, it doesn't hurt to ask. It was a good decision by the company Push the buttons only when you're on the surface! The watch was nice at first, and I could push the lap button (big middle one) under the water with no problem. After a few presses, the button stopped working - so I returned it to the retailer. Pressing the button did not do anything. As soon as I took the watch out of the water, the button came back to life. There were a few more attempts to push the button underwater after that but it failed each time. That was the point when I decided that I would no longer test it. I looked at the watch two days ago and it looked fine. However, two days later the watch face started getting cloudy, as if there had been water spilled on Upon opening up the case, I found some condensation, as well as water damage near the bottom of the innards at the bottom of the watch As a result, it corroded. I'm spooked! After cleaning up the watch, I let it air dry until it was as good as new so I could reassemble it. This was two days ago, and I have not had any additional problems since then. In the future, I do not plan to push the button underwater, and I would strongly recommend that A broken watch will ruin your entire watch collection. Despite these shortcomings, it's a very good watch, lightweight, easy to read, and of course very stylish. In the hopes of not damaging it too badly, as I intend to use it for many years to come!.
The watch I am wearing has served me well over the past 2 years for both swimming laps and for checking the time in the middle of the night when I have to feed my baby or tell my two year old not try not to look at my iPhone during the morning because there are two points to be aware of Timex has been very difficult to reach in order to get replacement bands for (1) the bands break and (2) I can't get a new band. One of my watches has broken the band, and replacing it has been much more difficult than I thought! It is likely you need to contact customer service and send a check to the post office box, then wait for them to send In 2016, we are living in the year I don't think the process needs to be that complicated. Likewise, I'm typing this while waiting on hold to get the address and verify that I'm ordering the correct band because I've been on hold for more than 30 minutes. This is my second attempt to speak to them and I've waited While Timex would prefer you to just buy a new watch, and that is indeed easier, I understand how the company feels. Even so, I am very concerned for the environment, and I don't believe it is right to just throw away things Update
Faye (at Timex) was very helpful and I was able to speak to her. It will cost me $12 to order a replacement strap. She was told I wanted an option to order replacement bands online, and I noted that with her supervisor, Mrs. Robinson.
