Timex Reviews

I worked construction and always wore a Timex watch. I have never had one fail on me and with the price range they are cheap enough to have more than 1. They keep great time and are very reliable. Batteries are easy to change, too.

Timex is a trusted, reliable brand, although I do believe that their quality has declined over the years. They could have more of a presence in today's market if they updated the brand.

I own many expensive elegant watches. My local “authorized” dealer, Tourneau, recently left my area, so I’m back to my old Timex. Easy battery replacement for about $10.00. Timex, takes a lickin’ and keeps on ticking. Fancy watches are sitting in a cabinet.

A good value for the money. You want to have a trustworthy watch without laying out a lot of money. Timex watches are a durable, and easy to access watch. Usually available when you need it at a local Target or box type stores. A great first watch for younger kids and a great durable watch for older athletes or college kids.

I received a Timex watch with a pattern of tulips on the watch face as a present about 20 years ago. It’s held up beautifully over time, only needing the battery occasionally changed, and the wristband replaced every several years as I wear it often. My husband likes Times Explorer watches a lot; however, the quality seems to have declined in recent years. They just don’t hold up as well as they used to. His last maybe two or three years nowadays; I remember when they could “take a licking and keep on ticking” 10+ years.

Great work watch- durable and waterproof. Illuminating face made it easy to see in dim lighting. Easily visible second hand. Also, watch band easy to change increasingly versatility.

Timex for me is a tried true brand, long lasting, performs perfect. It was my first watch at 18 years old as a gift from a friend in 1976. It had a beautiful cream color leather band and a clear gold face and 3 black hands (two for the hour one for the minutes). Just set the time and it tells the correct time until the battery needed changing.

My husband purchased this watch for my birthday in 2003 and I have not had any problems with it. I've changed the battery once, in 2012. It still looks new. I love it.

I love Timex. It’s a great brand name with great quality. I never had a problem with any of their watches telling time except a battery problem which is no problem at all since I know how to change most watch batteries on my own.

The Timex watch has been an inexpensive durable watch that will last generations. They are stylish and have interchangeable bands. There wind up and digital models for both old school and the younger generation.

I actually loved the wind up Timex but you stopped making them. I had a couple of wind ups and they are still working from the 1960s. The battery ones only last as long as the battery does and then it costs you $12.00 to change every battery. Wish I could get a wind up again.

I enjoyed my Timex. It seems like it ran forever, and I never had a problem with it. I mean it would rewind itself by the movement of my arms movement. I really enjoyed that watch and I think I will buy me another one soon too.

I really have had no issues with the few Timex watches I own. They keep time and two of them are waterproof. The look of the waterproof ones is a little more bulky than a fashion watch but I have several watches to wear for fashion.

My Timex has endured throughout the years. It's been reliable, sturdy and not that expensive. I only change my watch battery twice a year. I love my watch!

I've had more expensive watches but they don't last any longer, some even last less long! There are so many different possibilities to select from when you look at Timex watches. Always easy to find one I like; sometimes I have trouble deciding which I like the best! They are a great product.

The Timex watch is good and dependable and the price is reasonable. I have had mine for 15 years and it has been dropped numerous times, I have only changed the wristband once and new batteries.

Timex has gone up in price and that keeps me from getting a new watch every other year. However they seem to keep on ticking. Also, I like that on a Timex you can have both date and month.

Someone bought a cheaper Timex model for me and I didn't notice anything shady when it came out of the box. The watch worked while I used it. However, it is sitting in my garage so I don't know if it still works.

This watch has been GREAT!!! I have replaced band and batteries but not one dime on repairs in over ten years. I would buy another in a minute, but this watch is running too well.

"Takes a licking and keeps on tickin'." I am 64 years old. Always have a Timex. For the money I would put it up against any watch around for double the price. Durable. Accurate. Attractive. I own others but my go to is Timex.

For the price you can't beat the product. You can wear it, if you accidentally break it you can afford to replace it. Average product in the price allows you to have several Watson once 40 running casual when dressing even a pocket watch and you can do this on an average man salary.

I wore this watch brand for many years and did not have any problems. The casing looked very nice. I would not hesitate buying another one.

Great watch for looks and stands up to working while wearing it. Also nice watch for everyday wearing. Also able to wear while playing sports and swimming.

In my mind, the Timex brand is comparable to *any* high-end watch product; it is very accurate, it is attractive, very durable and most of all (and most significant for me) it is quite affordable, as opposed to many high-end watch products. Although I currently don't wear a watch and probably won't ever wear one again, if I did desire to own a watch again, my first brand choice would be Timex.

My only complaint is that the watch sometimes changes time zones. It is hard to change the watch to the correct time zone. Otherwise, a good product.

Decent watches from a time tested brand. Reliable, solid and as accurate as brands that cost many times more. Lots of styles available for all tastes and needs.

Very durable, true to description i.e. waterproof, nightlight, etc. Price is commensurate with quality. Available anywhere in a wide variation of colors and techno improvements.

I've had higher-end watches but I always go back to Timex. The last time I was looking for a watch I wanted something specific - I had several features I had to have and I found it in my Timex. They're a long-standing brand that's always a classic and they last forever. I will probably always own a Timex or two.

Since becoming a nurse > 50 years ago, I have relied on Timex watches for both professional and personal uses. It's never failed to provide good service.

For the money this brand is great. I've owned 5 or 6 in my lifetime and I like the expedition series. Just a simple watch. I guess they could make the leather bands a little better.

I have Timex Watches from 20 years ago or more, all they need are batteries. I love my Timex watches. I give them as gifts, keepsakes, anniversaries just about any occasion. Each one has a special memory. It's a gift you can keep on giving.

My father was a bridge painter. His support cable gave way many years ago & got caught on his watch. He was a big man. The watch held him long enough to be rescued. It was a Timex. Customer for life???

For the price you can't beat a Timex. I have owned expensive watches. You can lose an expensive watch just as quick as a Timex. Why pay more when the watches are just as good.

I bought the Timex because it is inexpensive and face is easy to read (for a senior). I like that it lights up in the darkness (I sleep with it), it's waterproof (in the shower), and uses a battery that lasts a long time.

I bought a Timex watch for my son's first dive trip. It was one of 2, my Seiko that didn't flood - did it have all the bells and whistles, no, but it worked.

I've had numerous Timex watches over the years. They are dependable, but I wish there was a better selection of styles and features. The price is reasonable and they last quite a while.

I have had several Timex watches over the years, I always had the water proof as I worked with water. They held up well and did not need new batteries but once every 4 years. I would get a new one after the waterproof had worn out. Repairing them was about the same price range as a new one. Pricing was good, depending on what type of watch you wanted.

They were very good watches. Took a licking and kept on ticking. Not a lot maintenance on the watches. Also, the bands were comfortable and interchangeable.

I grew up with Timex watches through the 70's, 80's and 90's, Timex is an outstanding US brand. Like the old saying it takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I concur. Also during the 2000's when I was in the United States Coast Guard for over thirty years, I have traveled with Timex, in the air, on the sea, and land, through many states, islands and over seas, South America. I need to buy another one, looking right now. Timex to me is number one.

I have several older Timex chronograph watches and all work magnificently. The biggest issue as with all non run of the mill watches is finding a good jeweler to change the batteries. Mall kiosk sales people are not in this league. I rate my individual Timex chronograph watches alongside of my Seiko flight chronographs and Citizen “Blue Angels” chronographs in durability. Price be damned.

Timex overall is my favorite brand due to price, durability, and styles. I am totally satisfied with Timex warranties, also because they are affordable I can own several styles to fit all occasions.

Timex was durable, inexpensive watch that the average Joe could count on. Not anymore and the Timex customer service is almost none existing. You can also get a better price from a Timex watch carrier than from Timex. But I warn you Timex, if Timex takes leaking yes it will stop ticking.

Each watch of Timex I have owned outlasts the battery. Not real keen on using it in water after replacing a battery. Don’t trust the seal after watch battery replacement.

I have a drawer full of Timex triathlon sports watches. Most of them work but the band broke and Timex changes design so often that you can’t get a replacement band. Without that issue, I would give them a 5 for their sports watches.

I believe that Timex has one of the best watches for the price than most watches. Timex is also durable. If I had to buy a watch for a decent price it would have to be Timex.

Not flashy, but they work. Durable, waterproof, timely, & the price is really affordable. Have bought watches that aren't expensive, but reliability was really questionable.

I have been a long time user of Timex watches. Like all products they change over the years. Sometimes the changes are a plus while other times they tend to be negative. Remember the old saying it takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Timex watches have always been durable for me. They get banged around on things from time to time because when I wear a watch I wear a watch. My Timex watch is more on my wrist than off. The Timex watch I have now was all black when I purchased it oh a year ago but over time and yes getting hit on door faces etc the paint has been scratched off. I even used a black sharpie marker to fill in the scratches lol, yep it lasted awhile but more of the black paint wore off so I carefully removed the remaining black paint leaving a nice gray finish. I mostly wear digital watches this day and time.

My husband bought the Timex watch for my 45 birthday present. I love that watch. It was a gold Timex watch but it stop working in 2000.

I have always found Timex Watches to be dependable and a good value for every day wear. I don't expect them to last more than a couple of years for the price.

I have always bought Timex watches. They last a long time before battery gives out. They have clear numbers you can see, not the tiny numbers that you need a magnifying glass. I also like the ones that illuminate at night, so you don't need to turn light on.

My Timex works great, looks great and was reasonably priced. It’s every bit as good as the other two more expensive watches that I own that need new batteries. I bought the Timex in a pinch, and it works great.

Very durable watch for a relatively inexpensive watch. A Timex watch makes a great watch for labor intensive jobs such as building fences, carpentry projects, plumbing jobs, etc. Timex lives up to its motto... “takes a licking & keeps on ticking”. Good buy for the money...

Timex buyer for 40 yrs; consistently good quality and excellent value. Other than needing a new battery, never a problem. Note: always got waterproof or water resistant.

I just discarded a watch that I have owned for almost 40 years. It was one of my favorites but it wasn't worth having it fixed. I think it cost me about $6-7 so I definitely got my wear out of it.

It's a great watch. Nothing battery operated or charged by the sun. Easy to use, just wind it up. And numbers large enough for aging eyes to see. I love it!

I am a woman, but I purchased the man's watch for the larger face. I’m very active and need a durable watch that I don’t have to worry about. Timex fitted that need.

Timex is an affordable, quality watch -- and it has an excellent reputation as being an attractive watch as well. You can't go wrong with a practical, efficient instrument such as a Timex watch.

The watches last forever and are very comfortable to wear. My favorite feature is the Indiglo feature. The watch face lights up when a button is pushed. Perfect to find out how much longer a bad movie lasts, find the time in a hotel when the clock is across the room or dark restaurant. An excellent buy for the money!

I have always loved Timex watches, they are my go to brand. I have never had a bad Timex watch and I go through a lot of watches. They seem to last forever and are very durable.

Love my watch. Timex takes a licking and keeps ticking. Keeps good time. Waterproof and shockproof. Wouldn’t want any other type. Has a excellent price. It’s well worth it.

Loved my Timex watch. It was the first watch I ever owned and it lasted forever, before I lost it! It really did take a beating. I wore it everywhere. Rain or shine, heat and cold, and snow. I really miss my Timex watch.

My Timex watch lasted 4 years until I lost it. It was a motion-activated, self-winding watch that kept good time. The numbers and hands were easy to read. Also, the price was reasonable.

Solid Reputation from years ago when marketing focused on a product's integrity. That needs refreshing. Where the watches are manufactured and the quality of materials could've made a difference in reputation but I owned Timex in 1960 and in 2016. There's only one of those two that I could wear and use today because the one I bought in 2016 fell apart.

My Timex has never let me down. I have a simple watch yet it always keeps time. A really reasonable price and still ticking years later. Great durability.

I'll stick with Timex. A simple no nonsense watch that keeps running. Also has several attractive new styles. I bought my husband several as he was hard on watches. Every one was a hit beside the fact that he could've afforded a Rolex.

Timex is not luxurious but very, very dependable and affordable. It offers styles that are fashionable, but not high fashion. I have a couple of Timex watches that I have had for 25+ years and they just keep on ticking. Definitely worth the price.

I have had many different watches and many diff. brands over the years, and out of everything, I'm probably happiest with my Timex. It's durable and seems to last pretty well. Also, I like that they are straightforward: easy to use & maintain. And affordable!

My Timex was bought in the 1940s and served me well for many years, better than others I've had since. I am assuming they are still being made in 2018.

I have purchased numerous Timex Watches for myself, friends and family. The quality and durability is outstanding. The variety of styles and options is another positive. The price also entices me to be a return customer.

I have purchased multiple times Indiglo watches and love them. I like the nightlight feature as well as the large dial on the man's version even though I am a female. But two issues repeatedly challenge the Indiglo. First, the back is hard to remove and replace when battery needs replacing. Second, the edges of the lower case that touch the skin become rough with corrosion over time.

I have owned several Timex over the years. My present daily-use watch is five years old. It continues to “take a lickin’ and keeps on tickin’”. Although I have had to replace the leather band several times.

My Timex watches have been reliable, comfortable, durable and a brand I can trust. When I want the best in watches, I have always chosen Timex. I have never been disappointed.

The watch serves me well as my work watch. Survived 3 years in Afghanistan and only suffered a little loss of chrome platings on the bezel. One of the few white face watches I’ve found that are easy to read.

I have been purchasing Timex watches for decades. I find their products to be durable, attractive and usually within a good price range. If I am looking for a long lasting watch, I always choose Timex.

NO ISSUES, HAVE HAD SEVERAL TIMEX WATCHES, ALWAYS BUY Extended warranty, used twice, battery are easy to replace, water resistant and can stand to Maryland winters.

Timex is no longer your grandparents' watch. They are stylish, durable and affordable. I collect and wear watches with different colored bands. If I can't find a watch in a color I want, it's easy to buy a Timex and swap out the band.

I have used Timex watches throughout the years, and return to them again and again. They do the job I request of them, and last a few years. Since the 1980's I have focused on digital watches only.

Timex watches have been around for many years. They are very stylish and they are very dependable watches and are sold everywhere at a very fair price.

Bought aboard carnival cruise...sun power...crap. Stopped working a week after purchase. Won’t ever purchase Timex again regardless of price or who the retailer might be.

Reliable. Purchased because it was the most cost effective solution to meet my buy objectives. Used indoor/outdoor all year long. Not a perfect wrist fit due to material used in wristband but light enough to not be noticeable. If you want of add-on features and networked kink this watch is NOT for you.

I like the Indiglo which glows at night but watch bands are very sharp. Trying to undress band got caught in my clothes and cut me quite deep not long ago.

I have been a user of Timex wrist watch for quite a few years and its accuracy has been incredibly above average. However, I have had to purchase a new watch every few years because the watch band falls apart. I happen to be one of those people who likes to have a wrist watch on my left wrist all the time. I know this is why the wristbands deteriorate. I have told myself that because I love the watch so much - I will put up with its wristband deterioration rather than switching to a different product.

Timex is a great and durable watch. I have owned many over the years and still wear one every now and then. They are simple, take a licking and keep on ticking. They are economical and very versatile, dress up and or dress down, high quality as well!

Very reliable product. I wear the watch for sports activity and it is very durable. In addition some of the features, such as illuminating dial comes in handy in the darkened steam room.

I have worn Timex watches for the past 50 years or so. I own several different brands but my everyday watch will always be Timex! They take a lickin and keep on tickin!

Bought one at Wal-Mart and it has the date to show. Well a few months later it quit changing the date. Can't fix it. $38!! Will buy a quartz watch next time.

My very first watch was a Timex and ever since then anytime I have the opportunity to purchase a watch it usually is a Timex. It has always proven to be durable and reliable and in 50 years that has still remain the truth.

Early in life I always wore a Timex. They lasted, seemingly, forever and were always cost-effective. Only later, as I matured and could afford an upgrade did I leave the brand.

I started buying Timex watches many years ago for the Indiglo feature. Timex was the first, and perhaps still the only watch which has this. I have a large and a small watch and I wouldn't be without them. When I travel there is sometimes no watch or clock in the room and I rely on my Timex to check the time and see how much longer I can sleep. Very useful also at movies, concerts and evening meetings. The watches have been completely reliable.

I have owned Timex watches for years. They have kept good time and have worn well. I had one repaired once and it was returned quickly, was repaired well and came back with a new band. I have been satisfied with the watches and find them an exceptional value.

Use to get Timex watches from the Clay County Fair in Sept. in Spencer, Iowa. Would cost reasonable. The last two years they have not been able to get Timex so that ended the cheap watches for me and now go to Walmart. Last a long time, I am wearing a Timex now.

I haven't bought a watch in ten years, but Timex was a good product because it was waterproof and shock resistant. I have not tried the other brands because I liked Timex.

A great watch for the price. I would buy another one. Before I would consider a higher priced timepiece. Even the strap is fantastic. Best benefit is if it is stolen or lost not too expensive to purchase another one. Just recently at a restaurant my watch brought the eye of a customer who was wearing a Rolex and he was extremely voiceful of how beautiful my watch was and wanted to know what brand. He could not believe it was a Timex.

My Timex watch was a Birthday gift. The quality was awesome. It was a nice size, which made the watch easy to see. I liked the leather wrist band. The battery lasted for approximately 4 years. It was a great watch.

Before my Apple watch my Timex was on my wrist when I ran. Well worth what I paid and lasted a long long time. The band wore out before the watch. I had several Timex watches.

First good watch I ever had. Got it in early 60's had it for years. I still got it, sentiment, simple dependable Timepiece. I'm not sure it cost ten bucks.

I love Timex brand because they have a range in pricing from very affordable to expensive to suit varied economic situations. Most of the watches I have purchased from this brand have been very durable and user friendly, meaning I could change the batteries myself when necessary.

My two Timex watches still ticking after 20 years and keeping accurate time. They are durable watches and come in a variety of types. They take a lot of abuse, and still keeping time on time.

I needed a watch with a 2nd hand for my CNA program. Timex was a perfect watch to take pulse and blood pressure readings. It had a white leather band and a button to light up the watch face at night. But the leather band ripped. Still, it kept really good time.

This brand has always been very good for me... I am really rough on jewelry. I am outside a lot... Working. I have put my Timex through heck. The old saying is true about this brand. It takes a licking and keeps on ticking... Thank you Timex for holding up so well.

Very impressed with my Timex, I love the Indiglo feature, it doesn't look too gaddy, feels comfortable on wrist and very easy to see dial. Just a great watch for not a lot of money.

The watch was purchased for my husband who was in the hospital. He needed the large face, night light on numbers. He died within 6 months and enjoyed the features to the end. I wear it now. When my friends see and admire the watch, their invariable comment is "are those things still being made?" (Thank you Walmart).

Timex is a very dependable watch. The watch I bought was a wind-up watch. I would recommend this watch to just about anyone who doesn't like to replace batteries.

Timex... takes a licking, and keeps on ticking! True story! Timex is the only watch brand that is affordable enough to get them in all styles and colors. The bands are interchangeable as well as the batteries.

They have come a long way from the watches 30 years ago. Keeping up with style and products last which is great. Price wise I wouldn't repair this watch if it needed it as you could purchase another and save the hassle.

I have owned a variety of watches and I have found Timex to be the most durable and reliable. They are not always the most fashionable but they get the job done at a good price.

I have purchased Timex for years and have 3 right now - "keeps on tickin'" - Great styles and "pretty" fair prices. What can I say? They are great watches...

My Timex watch lasted so long that I had to keep finding bands as I wore them out yet the watch was still running. I’m very rough on watches and up until I got a Timex, I would easily destroy a watch in 6 months. My oldest Timex is 13 years old.

I sent Timex the exact Timex watch I had on when while driving my tractor around the farm. A piece of barbed wire came up a whipped across my wristwatch breaking the crystal, etc. And the Timex saved my wrist from injury!

Years ago I had a Timex pocket watch which cost about $8. I used to carry it on construction sites in my watch pocket in my pants. I had a watch fob with a bulldozer medallion. It had a glow in the dark hands and numerals. It was a great watch for my purpose.

Timex watches are always worth the price, and last a lifetime. I wish they were more trendy, but they do serve the purpose. The cost is so low that you don't have to worry about it, and it always works. It's like a tough watch that serves all purposes.

I have had Timex watches since I was very young. These watches are very reliable, and would recommend them for people of all ages. My favorite one is the one that the face glowed in the dark. I think all the watches that came out after by other companies, used the fact of glowing faces on their watches. I'll take a Timex for durability anytime.

I have had several over the years and have had good luck with them all. I prefer the adjustable bands over the leather ones, they hold up longer. My only real problem is getting replacement batteries and having them installed in the watch. Less and less places do this for you and it is extremely expensive to return the watches to Timex and wait for them to ship the watch back once the battery is installed. While waiting you are without your watch.

My husband wears a Timex and says it as good as the more expensive brands. If something does go wrong it's better to buy a new one than to have it fixed. That's what I had him do when he broke the crystal on his last watch.

I have had two Timex watches. They kept very accurate time and seemed to last forever. They weren't dress watches, just the everyday sort. And I could easily switch the bands to go with what I was wearing. I liked the big faces and real numbers with marks for each minute and minute hands. They each lasted 15 years or more.

I really appreciated the light up dial, especially if I was in a place with no bedroom clock. I always need to know the time when I wake up during the night.

I love Timex Watches. They are dependable and long lasting. I love that they are water proof and touch because when I put mine on I forget it's there and have done yard work and house cleaning with it on. I have owned one for years and would not hesitate to buy another.

Was years ago but still remember when I got my Timex watch. I was so proud of it. Kept perfect time up to the time someone stole it out of my locker while doing PE.

You must keep in mind that it's a Timex, not a Philippe Patek. I had some Timex watches that lasted decades. I'm not afraid to change my oil when I wear one. They keep decent time. I just wish they went back to mechanical and self-winding movements.

I have bought at least 3 Timex Indiglo watches, each of which lasted about ten years. I love being able to read the time in the dark and it has been a very reliable watch.

As a healthcare professional I have used Timex watches for years. They absolutely "take a lickin' and keep on ticking". I frequently bang my watch on beds and stretchers but my Timex still works.

Glad we bought the $5.00 extended warranty, as 5 of the Timex Watches failed - parts broke off and the 200 meter water resistant is a joke. Watch was only exposed to minimal surface water periodically. Timex Watches no longer take a licking and keep on ticking.

My ONLY complaint is about the knob, it tends to corrode and fell off making adjusting time or date very difficult. In all other respects I am very pleased with its durability, as a 'farmer' a watch MUST be able to handle wet, dust, etc.

Bought a Timex watch from Walmart. It cracked on the face within 2 months. Trouble getting an employee that can adjust the band to make it smaller. Batteries do not last very long.

I got it and used it everyday for years. It was water proof and I swam with it & showered with it. Also had the battery changed a couple times over the years that so had it along with the Crystal twice. It was a great watch.

I like Timex watches. They are affordable and perform well. They may not last forever, but they last long enough for the cost. There is a also a wide variety of styles, so I can change the look or purchase more than once.

I have owned several Timex watches since a teenager (was my first watch), and have never had an issue with any of them. They really do take a licking and keep on kicking!

Each Timex watch I have ever owned lasted a minimum of 10 yrs. Very durable, very easy to maintain when cleaning or changing the battery. It's the only brand I buy.

Timex is a great and durable watch that is priced very reasonable. I enjoy wearing this watch very much. They have been making Timex watches for a long time,

Used it as my everyday nursing watch. It was always accurate and sturdy (nurses need dependable, accurate and sturdy- this watch was all three). Graduated as RN 1966 and used this watch through my years. Now retired but still have my initial Timex. Still works.

Timex takes a licking and keep on ticking! Timex watches are one of the best brands I have ever owned. It keeps the time and date very well. They have different designs for however you're feeling on any given day.

I always like Timex and over 55yrs plus... thanks again Timex. Even when they ran Timex through the blender and it still worked. That's the kind of watch a ex war veteran needs.

I have had my Timex watch for 25 years, it was my grandmothers before that. It has been through everything I could put it through and today it still works. Unbelievable!

I wear these watches all the time. Through a 40 year career as a college football coach, they always held their own. My favorite and current one is the Iron Man Triathlon. Great for working out with countdown timer and stopwatch. 3 alarms + 2 time zones. Great watch for the price.

My Timex has lasted me 15 years. I've gone through three bands in that time and I work hard. I work with my hands all day and I had. I don't submerge it but I get it wet. I'm just terrible and knocked around and not broke it and my dad said his Timex even longer.

Timex is affordable and able to stand everyday wear during work and at home. It hold up when outside and the heat is very high also. Does very well in the cold. My work is a plumber and it is always getting wet and nasty but still works very well.

I have had the same Timex watch for years, dropped in water, on the floor and it still work perfectly. I used in my Nursing career and depended on it all the time.

My first watch was a Timex that sadly took a bath the same night I had received it. Someone thought they would sneak it in my coat pocket and surprise me, however, what they didn't know is that I planned on washing it that night so the pockets had already been checked. Well yep it came out of the coat and was ruined. After finding out who gave it to me I felt bad and guilty so I went out and bought one identical to it. This was 30 years ago and I have wore one ever since.

When I was younger early 20's I received a Timex watch band. I wore it for 5 years before replacing it with another Timex band. They were made well, stylish, reasonably priced.

Probably the best watch in terms of value for money I have ever owned. I prefer it to my Breitling watch that I paid so much more money for. You cannot go wrong here.

I seem to wear out the adjustment stems in about 5 to 6 years and the flex band in about the same but the watch keep running as long as you change the battery.

It seemed to be child proof and would last pretty long for me. It was also cheap enough that my parents could pretty much keep me in a new one off and on!!

I've had a few Timex watches over the years and have always preferred this brand over any other. The windup ability I find to be more reliable than a battery run watch.

Timex is dependable. The first watch I owned was a Timex & they are still the best. When the watch bands break you can send for a replacement. They are not that expensive.

I have purchased several Timex watches to use when I don't want to use my others which are more expensive. The dial is clear and easy to read especially the glow in the dark.

I have owned more Timex than any other watch. When I go to buy a watch it's usually the brand I buy. I can't wear just any watch because they either quit working lose time. Most Timex are reasonably priced and waterproof. I forget to take them off in the shower. Timex also has a lot of different styles to chose from and prices, from very expensive to cheap and still look classy. Thank you Timex.

I buy only Timex watches and have been buying them for years. I am hard on watches and only Timex has withstood the abuse I put them thru. I'm always banging my watch on one thing or another, dropping them on hard flooring, etc. and they survive to tic another day. I've had them explode in pieces when dropped and I take the pieces to one of the watch kiosks in my local mall and have them put back together and they continue to do the job. Like John Cameron Swayze, said in his legendary commercials, It Takes A Licking And Keeps On Ticking. My watches are proof positive that they do just as John said. Where are you going to find a watch like Timex for $60 that goes on and on. You're not!
