I really love the Indiglo feature. It tells time significantly better than traditional lume. It's the reason why I bought a Timex.

Definitely, and this one has both! I think Indiglo/backlight is definitely underused by companies. Imagine a solar powered quartz analogue dive watch with a backlight function...

Ah the loud ticking timex haha have to say that the indiglo function is one of the most underrated features in the world of watches. Cool little field watch for pretty much pocket change. 👍

Indiglo is so much fun, such a silly thing but it gives me such a kick to use it. Cheers for watching!

I have this watch and love it especially the price, bit that ticking sound is the absolute worse! Good informative review thank you

I love Timex watches. Bought one last month. I like their history. Timex started 1854 so I like their history and fair quality of these watches🎉

Indiglo, The main reason to me for purchase my timex expedition scout.

Help. Yo tengo uno igual pero ya no prende el indiglo, si da la hora. Creen que sea la batería?

Great video, I the green strap it comes with is listed as ''Canvas.'' like what they make tents out of. I absolutely love the ''TICKING.'' I love it. I bought a 36mm timex for work ''i do security,'' so i did not want an expensive watch ''in case i have to throw out the trash... so to speak.'' Then after a about 2 to 3 mouths i started really falling in love with the watch. The best part the managers at the club have 2-3 Hunderd dollar watches but no indiglo. While my LUM and INDIGLO puts all of them to shame. I have the ''Expedtition Scout/Acadia. The same as this watch except mine has a Crown Guard. Great view.

They have taken a lot of inspiration from Hamilton Khaki while designing it. Love the indiglo, nice review.

Now that you say it, I see it. But I think that probably goes for a lot of military style watches. The design brief is simple, easy to read, and normally black dial for camouflage/glare reduction.

I’m on battery #2 with my timex like this have never had a problem with it havehad the each 5 years now

It's grand on wrist, but put it on a hard surface and it gets a bit louder. NATO helps deaden it, and the expedition isn't the worst(one of my Waterbury's is mental!)

If you have to set the date, how does the watch know whether the month has 29, 30, or 31 days in the month?

@black79montecarlo123

It doesn't. You have to correct the date when needed.

How much did you pay for the watch? The ebay link doesn't work anymore and the cheapest similar I could find is £47.96. Is it similar to your purchase price?

Unfortunately without seeing it I can't be too much help, I'd say return it to them if the the indiglo isn't working as it should according to the manual. I don't have a chrono but I assumed it's the same as the Scout, just press the crown in firmly. If you're not comfortable changing the battery to test, I'd say return it
