A good cheap watch when that's all you need
I can't remember where I first came upon this watch but it is perfect for me and whenever the battery finally runs out or I lose it I buy a new one.I don't need an expensive, designer watch for everyday use. We do not dress formally at work and to be honest a really fancy watch would be out of place. I'd also be afraid of scratching it or losing it.What I need is something that tells the time. A stopwatch and alarm are also useful. This watch has all of that and is very affordable. It's cheaper to buy a new one when the battery runs down (which takes a long time, well over a year at least) than to replace the battery. It's also pretty durable. It's been banged and dropped regularly and has never quit.

Great "Old Fashioned" digital watch
This is a well-constructed, light, multi-purpose digital watch. I depend on it:1. Quicker to check time than a cell phone2. I use the alarm function daily at home or on the road. Can set 3 different alarms.3. The stopwatch is quite helpful for timing walks/rides/kids events, whatever4. The timer is easy to set and use no matter where you are. Quicker and easier than a kitchen stove timer that you can't hear if you're doing something out of the kitchen, for instanceThe settings are easy, reliable. The battery (Cr2016) lasts for a couple of years.This is NOT a watch that tracks physical activity/physiological parameters. I had an Apple Watch that did that, but gave it away in part because when in use the charge lasted less than 24 hours so I had to recharge it at least once a day. It also had a bewildering number of apps that were of no use to me and were subject to sharing data..I've had 3 iterations of this watch over the last 15-20 years. Great, functional watch.My only complaint is that changing the battery is difficult and should probably be done by a jeweler. I've tried after watching YouTube videos and have changed the battery, but each time have lost some functionality of the watch--the last time I lost the alarm for instance...

nice watch, lousy band
This is a simple and straigt forward watch. I like the color of the face and the display has large numbers.The only thing I don't like is the band. I like the metal silver/black band with easier clasping mechanism

Quality product
Great product at a good price. I had bought the exact same watch a number of years ago and was pleased with it and it still works but the band is wearing out so I bought a new one. I would recommend this watch to anyone looking for a good lasting product.

Unacceptable Customer Support
I purchased a Timex Men's Expedition watch on 24 Nov 23 and in less than 5 months; the watch is resetting itself to 01 Jan 2016 every time I put it on. It seems the watch resets with the most simple movement or vibration. UNSATISFACTORY for a digital watch to say the least!! I've contacted TIMEX for repair or replacement and was sent "Repair Instructions" via email.Summary: I was told by TIMEX, the repair work is done overseas and would take 2-3 months just to send the watch to the Philippines.... and also.... the repair fees are dependent on the type of repair and whether the watch is in or out of warranty. Once repair fees have been determined, the repair turnaround time is an ADDITIONAL 2-4 weeks after repair payment is made. In my case..... even though still under warranty, I would have to pay a shipping and handling fee and the whole process would take 4 - 5 months at a minimum!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME??My advice..... NEVER BUY A TIMEX PRODUCT.... The quality of their watches and the Customer Service of this company have seriously degraded. DONT WASTE YOU MONEY OR TIME on any TIMEX product. It's hit or miss whether it will work or not. DO NOT expect quality customer service if you have a problem. You will be very disappointed, if fact OUTRAGED to say the least!!

The Timex T49042 is a great watch!! I am very, very satisfied!
After a few years of not having a watch, I began searching for a watch that met my visual and feature requirements. This Timex T48042 watch fits my desires perfectly.The watch screen is large enough to easily read, and the layout of it is also very good. It shows the time in large digits, while also displaying the day and the date in smaller digits. It has a stopwatch/lap function with a 99+ lap function. When the 99th lap is reached, the lap counter resets to 0, but the timer continues to time accordingly. It has a large "Indiglo" button directly below the screen which provides ample light in darkness to read the entire screen with ease.The watch band is very comfortable and has 9 holes for fitting. The inside of the band (the part that touches the wrist) has a very soft material, I'm guessing that it is nylon according to the product description, stitched to it, which makes the watch quite comfortable. The outside of the band is a combination of brown leather and black nylon, which gives it a very nice look and feel to it. The watch head is a forest green and the buttons are a greenish-tan color. Overall, the colors work beautiful together and was one of the reasons I was attracted to this watch.The watch is not waterproof, but it is water resistant to approximately 100m. So be careful if getting near water with this watch as water may manage to get inside the watch. I have not has any problem, but I am relatively careful when near water with this watch.I, personally, have not found any cons or problems with this watch. It is well built and should last quite a while if taken care of.Overall, I am very satisfied with this watch. The functionality, colors, and feel work very well together, and it is a pleasure to own and wear. I fully recommend this watch.
