TimexExpedition Rugged Metal Watch

This Timex Expedition watch is a solid pick for everyday wear. The rugged metal case and natural leather strap give it a classic, outdoorsy vibe. It's comfortable on the wrist and easy to read, thanks to the Indiglo backlight. Whether you're out hiking or just running errands, it's a reliable timepiece that won't break the bank.​

Best quartz watch I ever bought! Good design and well made.

I love this watch, I've been wearing one for years, keeps excellent time. What I didn't like was the printing was all in French. Sacre Bleu!! It did have a nice leather band though. Would buy again after taking French lessons. :-0! Setup was done only because I've worn this same watch for years and am familiar with how to set it up.

Outstanding value!! Good looking and excellent time keeping. No instructions however so after experimenting you realize to move the time or date you turn the stem forward but to change the day of the week you turn the stem backwards.

Quality

I bought this watch after the first timex watch I bought stopped working. I sent it back added money and got the expedition. I only use the watches infrequently. I usually keep them in a box. Booth watches have stopped working after sitting dormant in my watch box. The first one right away, then the second one I took to a jeweler and had a new battery put in, and with the new battery put in the watch it only lasted a couple of months. My old timeless used to last a long time. I am writing to Timex, What's Up. You never used to rip me off!

Even though the watch case is brass metal. It still feels very solid and great to wear! I would personally recommend switching out the band. The band is ok, but the threading does come undone pretty easily. I really love the vibrant indiglo back light feature. To line the minute hand up just right. I recommend stopping the seconds hand 5secs before pushing in the crown to at the 12 mark for the desired time. That way, by the time the second hand passes through the 12 o clock mark. The minute hand will move to the following minute counting. It should help line it up just right. I notice the minute hand has a habit to line up between the minute markers.

I like my Timex Expedition watch because I can wear it daily I like its versatility because the size is quite conservative 40mm in diameter which falls into the category of classic about 9 or 10mm thick which makes it imperceptible on my wrist it is very comfortable and uses a 20mm leather strap this will make my task easier when I want to play with various combinations because it is a standard size and I can find many ( a lot !!)The reading of the watch is quite easy and clear in any situation because the design is almost military, the hour indexes (numbers) are applied and that makes the watch look too goodFASCINATES ME !!!In low light situations you can choose to turn on the INDIGLO function (it is a kind of luminosity mechanism that makes the dial of the watch light up and you can read the time more quickly)It has the day and date window located at 3 o'clock in white that contrasts very well with the color of the dial, which is like a cream color, giving it a timeless air.One detail that I don't like is the fact that the bezel is fixed!!!!It is not rotating .....🤦🏻‍♂️😬But neither do I consider that it is something of considerable relevance, I just would have liked one more function.What I particularly like is that the case is made of brass, a material that will acquire an interesting patina over time.On the subject of precision, it is something that I have to highlight because it is a Timex quartz movement which works wonderfully.(+/- ) 15 seconds per month so nothing to worry aboutIn terms of hermeticism, I can say that this watch has a resistance of 100 meters, this works wonderfully in most day-to-day situations.All this in a watch under 50 bucks seriously....... 😳😅I did not doubt it at any time from my humble opinion it is worth every penny it is a piece of a respected and valued brand in the watch industry (TIMEX) of good design and resistant for my day to day, which will undoubtedly provide me with the time in my wrist for many years.I recommend it 100% !!!!!!!!!
