Hey, Welcome to the OFD Watch Channel. My name is Aron Dunlap, and I’m nuts about watches. What’s OFD you ask? Well, one of my best friends coined this term. It stands for “Only F@#*ing Dunlap” (sorry kids!!) due to some of the ridiculous things I can come up with, including watch collecting.
I have loved watches for years, but in the last few years really got into the collecting and studying aspect. I mainly buy Seiko and Orient watches, but I love everything out there!! (Omega, Oris, Rolex, Squale, Timex, Casio, Steinhart….and on and on and on)
Please like and Subscribe, Thank you!!

    OMG! Thank YOU!!! I really appreciate you showing dimensions (measured with your caliper!) of this item, as I was considering getting it but didn't want a watch face that was overwhelming for my small-ish male wrist, and I couldn't find anywhere (not even in Amazon reviews) calling out dimensions as accurately as you did in this video. Much appreciated! Now I can buy this watch!

    I have one of these with the yellow second hand and green canvas strap. For the money they are great and can't go wrong. Probably giving years of faultles service. Okay the case is a base metal with a coating, the second hand bounces and the tick is loud for some, no screw crown, glass crystal, basically it's old technology but it worked perfectly back in the day as it does now!! I really enjoy mine to the point I wear it constantly over my 17 year old MWC!!

    Thanks Aron, nice to see you review simple classics like this Timex. Personally, I think they are must have pieces for those of us collectors interested in their $35 to $100 value oriented watches, still by an American company. I have this Expedition Scout, and a Weekender Chrono like yours as well. There are in my rotation.

    Again, spot on for a nice everyday wearable time peace. I own both the vanilla and black dials. My black expedition with a a charcoal case has a yellow second hand that just pops against the black. I wear it on am old school wide German Fluco strap and receive many nice complements.

    i normally use solar powered watches but i bought the normal battery powered version of the expedition scout because Timex solar powered watches are totally not as reliable as the Japanese brands. It is a pretty and well sized watch. I absolutely love it. It is very noisy though.

    My first was a Timex back in 65 or 67 I forget now but ?I still have it and it works, just needs a battery. I was 15 or so then. I looked if Timex made anything with a Power Reserve meter and a Date but nope. Next best thing is the Orient but most are sold out. Wondering if the power reserve meter is that hard to put into a watch but sure seem to be way over priced if they have that simple complication. Or it would appear to me to be simple, maybe I am wrong. To bad Timex don’t do something lil more exciting.

    Joe G Hey Joe! Check out the website. Pretty neat stuff over there. Power reserve is generally reserved for automatic. It would be great to see Timex getting back into mechanical. The Marlin reissue is,a bright glimmer of hope!! You mentioned Orient. One of my favorites is the Defender that they just brought back into the line. Very cool field watch!! Hopefully get one on the channel soon 😉

    With all due respect, good sir, I think you should've mentioned any negatives you might have about that watch. I've been looking for an affordable beater watch for work and was quite attracted by the aesthetics but have gotten a lot of input on how loud the ticking is on Timex watches. Any negatives about that watch that you have personally? I don't like the mere 50m WR and lack of a proper stainless steel case. But I've heard it's a good watch for the money.

    Only the back is steel. The case is brass. There is another, rarer edition, called Allied, which uses an all-stainless steel case. It looks almost identical to this Expedition model, but the dial only says Timex, instead of Timex Expedition. See an example here: www.amazon.com/Timex-Allied-TW2R46500Mens-Analog-Casual/dp/B075VHTFT5#customerReviews

    This has sapphire crystal and Swiss Quartz, Seiko has mineral crystal and Japanese automatic movement. This will serve you more years, keeping accurate time, without servicing of the movement. The Seiko would no be worth servicing after 10years, this will be on its 2nd or 3rd battery. Cheers
