Timex Unisex T5H561 Ironman Traditional 30-Lap Watch

I bought this watch a few weeks ago and so far it has been performing flawlessly. I was able to set up the time and my personalized settings in just a few quick minutes. It is small enough to be unobtrusive but substantial enough to feel like a watch. It also comes loaded with a bunch of handy features such as a stopwatch, timer, three alarms, three time settings, indiglo watch illumination with Night Mode, and a thirty lap memory with splits.

A very nice feature of this watch is night mode, in which you hold down the indiglo button for a few seconds, and the watch beeps and enters night mode.

The button in the lower left stuck so now I can't change mode to stopwatch or alarm or reset the time. The time is off by 2.5 minutes now and when daylight savings rolls around it'll be off by a lot more. It's not fixable so I just went out and bought a Casio. I never liked this watch from the first week I had it.

I'm not positive mine is the exact same model as this because mine is all black, but it is a Timex unisex 30-lap Flix Ironman and my comments should apply to all in this series. This one is larger than I'd like because I have thin wrists but it's better than the men's Timexes. Sorry to say, Amazon, but you really shouldn't buy a watch online; you need to try them on to see if they will fit your wrist.

I wanted it as my everyday watch to show time and date and as a stopwatch for running. It served the...Read more
