Our best selling Scout design just got upgraded. The Expedition Scout Chronograph maintains the classic outdoor design of the original and enhances it with chronograph functionality. It is now as appropriate for the office as it is for the trail. This time-honored best-seller just got a little better. We've upgraded our ulitarian field watch with a 30-minute chronograph, a well built oversized case, and of course, our signature arrow second hand.

Fidly date set
It's pretty. The dial details are nice. Color is better than I expected. From someone who returned a $300 watch that looked better in the pictures than real life. The dial is nice for the price. I also like that its a proper chrono with the large seconds hand serving as the chrono.The only niggle I have is that setting the date involves rotation of the hour hand 24 hours for every date. The date wheel doesn't advance without the hour hand rotating. This doesn't upset the current hour hand position, it re-positions itself in the hour when you put it back. I don't know if this is correct, but it's how mine works. Minute hand setting is normal. I have another quartz chrono that sets the same way, so I think it's normal for a quartz.The watch did come hacked with stem clip in place.The indiglow is excellent.The strap color is too bright. A darker band will help the orange hands pop. I think it looks good in a black canvas strap.There are complaints of the second hand not being indexed. Mine is slightly off, but not enough to be a bother.Yes, happy with the watch.It scratches my green itch.

A handsome watch with good durability and features for the price
I have been very impressed with this handsome little timepiece. I have been buying Timex watches on and off since the mid-1990s, and quality looks to have stayed the same in the intervening decades. The watch has a matte brass case with a stainless steel back piece (of the snap-off variety, convenient when you need a battery change), with 100 meter water resistance, which is quite good in this price range. The 12mm thickness is a bit on the bulky side, but not too bad. The watch has a nice heft/weight to it, and feels quite solid. The leather strap is thick and has a nice softly-sueded feel to it. The chronograph is only adequate as it only goes up to 30 minutes. However, due to the smaller second hand, you don’t get the annoying ticking sound of Timex’s non-Chronograph offerings.At 42mm diameter (with a 52mm lug-to-lug length), the watch is right at the upper limit for my 6.25ish inch wrist. What saves it from looking too large is that it has a somewhat thicker bezel and the dial itself is only about 35mm, so it doesn’t take up the whole surface of the wrist. It’s a tool watch anyway, so it’s permissable to wear them larger. If you want a smaller watch, look at the Weekender Chronograph.Aesthetics-wise, I chose the green/tan colorway and love the forest green dial in combination with the tan strap, which has a bit more of an orange undertone. It has an outdoorsy look without sacrificing elegance. My one complaint would be the readability could be improved. A chronograph dial is already somewhat busy, but the words “EXPEDITION” and “CHRONOGRAPH” are the same color and roughly same size as the hands and easy to confuse with the hands upon first look. There is also no lume on the hands at all. Sure you have the Indiglo feature, but the Expedition Chronograph Field version of this watch has lume. I would say the Weekender Chronograph has a more readable face overall, but not enough to be a dealbreaker if you like the Expedition Scout.I had no issues setting the watch, although the lack of a clear “click” in the crown makes it feel a bit janky when you’re pulling it out to set the minute hand. It almost feels like you have to pull it out too far to the point of breaking it. Some people are reporting their chronograph hands didn’t line up exactly. Mine thankfully zeroed perfectly.

Good watch with a not so good strap
This is a good watch for what I needed. I needed a watch to hike, run and bike with that I wouldn't be too upset with if it got trashed. It keeps time well and the movement is decent. The only thing that was disappointing to me was the strap. While it was leather it didnt look like the strap in the photo. A bit flimsy and very orange, but I spent $35 on a new strap and now it looks good. I'm happy with it and it serves its purpose. Good watch with a nice face and good movement and priced right even with the extra $35 I spent.

A few minor niggles, but for the cost a solid watch
I bought this watch because I thought I lost my Timex Weekender Chrono (found it in an unexpected place). I missed the other watch too much, so I ordered this one overnight (the weekend had a delivery date of 1 week out). From the photos, it looked like the buttons might be better than on the weekender (they are better). The seconds hand start at 2 for the chronograph. The face is slightly larger and it looks huge on my arm, even though its only 2mm larger. I am not excited about the band either...the band that came on the Weekender is much better for my smaller wrist.However....I love the color of the seconds hand (orange), it really stands out against the darker green face as do the hour & minute hands. In fact, the whole dial face has a better contrast than the Weekender and is much easier to read. This is the watch I would choose if I was playing dress up. I could see this watch be in my collection longer than the Weekender.

Poor Packaging
5 star for the watch..The watch looks fantastic.2 stars for pacakging Please work on the packaging.It was a disaster.the box was worn out and the watch had no hard protective case just a routine card bord box that looked in a very condition.Had to gift this and had to look for a case to gift wrap and make it look nice.

説明書がダメ🙅🆖⤵️長期在庫?
The media could not be loaded. 箱が安っぽくて箱に入れて収納はできない😵持っているTIMEXウィークエンダーは箱がちゃんとしていて収納できるのに😣、長期在庫なのか裏ぶたのシールの糊がベッタリついていて新品なのに最初にパーツクリーナーで拭かないと使える状態ではなかった😞説明書が全くダメで時刻合わせの仕方も載っていない、YouTubeで時刻合わせの動画を見て時刻合わせしました。まあ安かったから全部ゆるせる☺️革のベルト部分がスエードっぽい素材で後々に傷んできそうな気が…時計そのものはカッコイイ、写真通り😆時計の秒針の音が大きいのが好きなのにウィークエンダーよりも静か、ウィークエンダーよりも上位機種と思って購入したがウィークエンダーのほうが個人的には好き😅
