Nice watch but strap has to go!,

This review is from: Timex Men's T45171 Expedition Analog and Digital Combo Watch (Watch)
I bought this watch almost a week ago and like it a lot. It has a lot of features and since it is all plastic it is light compared to my metal watch. I found out that it has a feature I didn't know about-a snooze alarm (do nothing when the alarm sounds and in 5 minutes the alarm sounds again). Also, you can put this watch into night mode which means that the indiglo stays lit for 3 seconds while rotating though functions at night. The directions included were wrong and it was by calling Timex that I figured this out-hold in the upper left button (button 1) for 3 seconds to switch between day mode and night mode and not the lower right button in the directions (button 3).
The rotating bi-directional bezel dial is a must for me. Some other expedition watches with bezels are only for show and not operational so be careful. Unfortunately the bezel is plastic on this watch and reminds me of gray PVC piping with black paint.

Wunderbar! Supertoll! Perfect!,
May 4, 2007 Jonathan Huckabay "Hekkenschutze" (Louisiana) - See all my reviews
This wristwatch may have a narrow armband but I find it to be comfortable, sturdy and strong; I do not understand what all the fuss is about! I found the controls for the settings to be easy to understand and remember. I travel a lot and the three time zones are a great feature, the compass features is great too and it is light weight, waterproof and shockproof and it has stood up to the wear and tear of traveling via plane, train, auto, foot, bicylcle, motorcycle and even hunting and skinning the kill, it makes a great camping watch too. The only thing I do not need is the lap time feature but do not register that as a complaint for it IS a feature that works great and might be of some use to someone, just not I. You will not regret this purchase!

Great watch,
March 25, 2008 A Kid's Review
This is a good watch for the price. I bought one, and have had it for almost a year. What makes it better than many of the other digital and analog watches is the fact that the two sync with eachother. It is very anoying when the second hand ticks slower than the digital display. Another thing that is great is the count down timer, it is a very usefull accesory.
