TimexExpedition Camper Men's 38 mm Watch

I really like this watch!First and foremost, I like it because of its comfort. Unlike most watches, the metallic base has a fabric underside, so instead of a cold metal feeling on your wrist, you have a soft feeling of fabric that leaves you barely noticing touch-wise that you have a watch on at all, which is great.Secondly, the watch is extremely accurate, easy to adjust, and does not lose time quickly at all.Thirdly, the watch not only looks nice, but feels durable, meaning that you can wear it in various places without worrying about damaging it. That is not to mean that it cannot be damaged, but rather that its appearance is such that it doesn't really matter if it suffers some scrapes here and there, for it has the look of an everyday, hardy watch anyway.It is lightweight, but not too light, and I can simply say that it is very comfortable to wear.There are additional features that are useful, such as the glow in the dark feature, as well as the date window. I find that the latter is highly accurate, the watch keeping the correct date regardless of what time of the day you adjusted it.My only criticism is that the watch's tick is slightly too loud for my ideal tastes, but that is only if you are wearing it in an otherwise silent room. During day to day activity I do not notice the ticking at all.

A nice little watch at a price the means you don't have to worry about bashing it. The 38mm size is misleading as this includes the little protrusions near the crown and on the opposite side. Without these it is only 36mm which suits my 6.75" wrist. The face is very clear so you can read the time at a glance. The hands have long lasting lume but obviously you have indiglo if it's very dark. My watch is loosing 3 seconds a week which is fine at this price point. I noticed that it lost more time if you use the backlight but this could be that the battery needs replacing as it arrived ticking and I no Idea how long it's been in storage. Strap is very comfortable and the whole package is as light as a feather. One thing that did impress me was that the second hand hits all the batons on the way round. I've paid more in the past for watches that can't manage that. You can sometimes here it ticking but it's not at the volume of the Weekender if you are familiar with that model. I'm very satisfied with this simple low priced watch. Only gripe; Timex, please pull the crown out before dispatch so that the watch arrives with a full battery.

This watch was purchased as a special treat for a child who had recently learnt to tell the time. It was a gift and the recipient was delighted with it. Despite the one, I received having had a somewhat tatty box.The watch comes in a neutral colour and has a large face with big numbers; which are clear to read. The only issue is that the date can be found where the number '3' should be and this can be confusing for a child who is trying to gain confidence when telling the time and sees numbers above '12' on the watch (the date and time of day are in the same colour and font and almost of identical size).Still the hands are flourescent and the whole face lights up in the dark - so reading it's well past your own bedtime is possible.The strap is made of velcro so can be adjusted to fit a growing child's wrist but it would be better if it was made of plastic (as the watch is waterproof) so it doesn't need to be taken on and off: on and off all the time. Equally the straps can get dirty and cling on to dust/debris as your child is outside. Equally the band is somewhat uncomfortable especially if it does get wet.The watch is clearly not for a man - the strap isn't long enough - but the face is large and it can look a bit cumbersome on a child's arm. Still I like its simple, sleek design. Actually I like it being big and the watch looks robust and that it won't break or easily get damaged. Good as boys tend to be a bit rough.....All in all though it is a good watch at a reasonable price and from an average, well-known manufacturer. They are not outstanding and there are issues with the watch (where improvements could be made, that are simple and inexpensive) but good enough for the job. And if it gets lost, I wouldn't get to gloomy about it and would probably end us replacing it with same one.

This nightglow watch has been around for decades. Built to withstand kids use when kids did real outdoor rugged things and not spend all day in house on computer games. I have had one for years and I mean years battery still ticking away. Water proof shock proof and a great secure strap. One that is comfortable better than leather or metal and does not rub. I bought this as it was on offer and such a lot of watch for the money. Looks good, light weight and versatile. So easy to use. As I say had one for years its accuracy is epic.

This watch is superbly designed for it's purpose. The black resin case is very tough as is the black nylon strap. The watch is water resistant to 100m/360ft so the watch is effectively waterproof for all water based activities. The large hands and numerals are easy to read at a glance which is ideal for cycling or similar activities when a quick look is all that can be spared. The watch face includes a date window which is also large and clear. The hands are luminous and the watch also has the 'Indiglo' backlight feature for viewing at night.My only criticism is the 20mm nylon strap which is fastened with Velcro. This is great when new as it is tough, secure and comfortably fits all wrist sizes. However, this will only last as long as the Velcro but replacement straps are easy to obtain.A very good watch . I'm very pleased.
