Dependable. Quality.
Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone, Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone
I love Timex. Been wearing them for tears. Easy to read. Indiglo? Absolutely. When I need to see the time in the dark, Indiglo is perfect. My grandchildren (and next door child) love to press the button to make it turn off / on. The ‘pearl’ face ones are difficult to see sometimes. Give me a good old matte white and I am happy. This watch band can be slide out and I have hand washed it to keep from smelling like leather bands can after a while. This band seems to pill a little but that is not enough to deter me from wearing. Love Timex. Always have. Dependable. Quality.

Great value
Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone
This has to be the best watch on the market for the money. It's low profile, easy to read, super classic and just looks great with everything. I have small wrists so this is the perfect size, not too intrusive, plus I can easily change out the band to switch up colors. I get so many compliments.

Good watch for daily regular wear
Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone, Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone
The item was delivered 2 days earlier than the estimated time. The watch was not well secured. It had fell out inside the small box, but fortunately there was no external or internal damage to the watch. The watch looks nice. I like the simple and clean design of it. The second hand ticking sound is noticeable if your surrounding is very quiet, but it doesn’t bother me cause I have had analog watches before and I the ticking sound is on a similar decibel level. Just be aware this watch is not made in the US (see pictures), but it’s not a dealbreaker for me. The strap gets the job done. I have a small wrist and the strap size is perfect. However, be aware the quality of the strap is very standard. There was noticeable frizz at the end of the strap and around the holes. Had to use a lighter to carefully trim the frizz (hence minus 1 star). Timex claimed the battery life is 3 years, but that remain to be seen. Overall, this is a good watch for every day regular wear. For more former wear you can just change the watch band.

I love it!
Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone
I have had this watch for 1.5 years now. I bought it for a trip to Venice, which operates on military time. It was hard to find a nice analog watch with military time...this one was the clear winner! I LOVE IT! It has always been super-dependable for correct time, and the little light makes it readable every time!! The band it comes with looks very nice, but it's really not a permanent band. I bought a silver expandable band on amazon, and I am super-happy with the combo. Do check it over for defects and have them replace it if anything's wrong (I did this initially because the light stopped working) but don't be afraid to try them again. They will take care of you.

Great little watch that I am. happy to recommend.
Color: Black/White/Silver-Tone
I kept searching for a good simple hardworking, easy-to-read watch and Amazon kept leading me to these no name nurses watches.  Well they did not last.   Finally I got smart and searched by putting Timex watch and found this little beauty.   This watch is perfect.   It's easy to read, it has a glow light so I can check it in the dark, seems to be waterproof, and it takes a licking and keeps on ticking.   It even looks nice.
