TimexUnisex Weekender 40mm

Classic and Timeless
General Forward About My Timex Opinions: Let me begin by saying that I'm somewhat infatuated with Timex, yet a realist that's hopefully not biased. I scolded Timex, through their customer service, for not putting out products with better quality control, as read in various Amazon reviews, and falling behind in their reputation as a well built watch as I remember from my early childhood; I'm now 51 years old. As for my experience, though, I've had GREAT luck with the current Timex watches in my collection. I give 2 thumbs up to their current design team.Specific Product Review: I'm somewhat driven to collect each and every watch in their Weekender 40mm, Weekender Chrono, and Fairfield lines. I admire the retro, minimalist flair that Timex has been pushing. It's a great watch for the price, too. The Timex Indiglo is fantastic. This Weekender and my Weekender Fairfield both have a slight shadow at the bottom when the Indiglo is engaged. That's not a problem to me as I've come to realize it's not a defect. As for the ticking sound... I love it!!! It tells me that it's a watch. It's louder than my other Weekender Fairfield but slightly quieter than the Weekender 38mm. The 40mm face speaks class, simple and elegant. The Weekender 40mm is just the right size. I stay away from the 38mm Weekender since it's too small and feminine on my wrist. The leather band seems at first too thin but it's actually VERY nice and attractive. If the band ever wears out, I'll just put on a NATO.... notice photos. As to accuracy, this Timex seems to be (+/-) 1-2 seconds off per week. I like quartz movements for their accuracy. I only ask for Timex to bring back an American made watch that's constructed to be passed down to my children; I'll gladly pay extra for Timex to get back up to Seiko or Citizen reputation. I'd love to see all stainless steel and Sapphire Crystal glass. I think Timex has a great watch for the price. I'm behind these watches 100%. Go Timex!!!!!

Almost perfect watch. Keep an out for the seconds
Bought this watch and another version of it (with the green band) because I wanted an affordable chronograph watch. The style of both are very beautiful and honestly the pictures don't do it justice. Easy to set up and the strap is surprisingly comfortable but is one that you might want to switch out especially if you have smaller wrists. It has large font and the date window is easy to read. I can see the smaller time keeping windows maybe a problem for some to read since they are smaller but honestly I think it's fine.The con, sadly, is that it falls behind in seconds after a while. I thought it was just my watch but I had the other do the same thing and am waiting for a replacement to see if that does the same thing. But so far it's been a problem with 2/3 watches so I'm guessing it's a problem.I say if you're looking for a nice watch to wear around, go for it. But if you need a watch to accurately keep time consistently... well just keep in mind you have to adjust for the seconds lost after a few days.

It's a trooper!
I love the style of the watch and that it's a Timex. All of my Timex watches last a long time and this watch is the same. It is accurate and the band treatment is easy to change out. I also love that it has a backlight button on it so that I can read the watch even in the dark. A great, reasonably priced watch.

Beautifully simple and functional
I like simple, classic things. This fills the bill. Clean, legible face. Crisp numbers. Can be dressed up or down, as required.

Love it, even with a tiny wrist
I have only had this watch for about a week, so I can't speak to how it will hold up over time just yet. But I was hoping there had been more review photos of women wearing it, so now that I have it, I figured I'd throw some into the mix for any women or small-wristed people like me who are browsing the photos and hoping to see this watch on some non-meaty hands, ha. For reference, my wrist is about 6 inches or so.So onto my thoughts: I love it. It looked like one option had silver hands and one had black, so I struggled for a while choosing one over the other. I actually ordered both, but the one with the black hands (in the photo at least) had a delay in shipping, and by that time I had received the one with the silver hands, so I just canceled the other order and kept the silver. If those really are black hands on the other model, I'd say both have their ups and downs. To me, the silver just looks classier and more expensive, but it's probably a little harder to read with a casual glance down compared to the more dramatic contrast of the black hands. But all you have to do is push on the Indiglo for a second and problem solved, and I also think the black second hand might be annoying on the other model since it doesn't move (unless you're using the chronograph feature). The silver one isn't as noticeable up on 12. So overall, I think silver is better and am happy with this one.Is it bulky on my tiny wrist? Absolutely. But I bought a replacement watchband (I cut it to size) and I really love how it looks, especially with a jacket or a sweater. If you are unsure about this watch because it's so big and you're worried your wrist is too small for it, I say give it a shot. If the bulky big watch style appeals to you, it's going to deliver on that front, and in terms of fit and comfort, you just have to experiment with different bands until it feels right for you. And it's not super expensive, so if you really want this watch but are unsure, you're not risking a huge investment. So yeah, I love it.

Great watch for nighttime
I have many Timex in the glow watches, and this is one of my favorite. I especially like the fact that it has a large face and the indigo backlight makes it really easy to know what time it is in the middle of the night. The black canvas watchband is very comfortable when I am working or sweating. I felt this was good quality at a fair price

Excellent watch!
Bought this as a gift for a friend. It's an excellent watch. He has trouble reading the dial sometimes and this one has the larger numbers which was great for him. It also lights up when you press a button which also makes it easy to read in any lighting. The strap was very comfortable as well. Personally, I love Indigo and Timex is always good quality. Very pleased with purchase!
