Wait until you’re older. I don’t hear my watch ticking unless I put it right up against my ear. Spent 8 years in the Navy in an engine room and the past 20 years in a hospital boiler room

Hahaha, that's a great tip!

I own this model too and I really like it. I don't remember any watch person in KZread making a review on it. Nice to see it in your channel.

I just bought one with a really nice brown leather strap. You may have a damaged watch as mine hits every marker and isn't wobbling. I would even swim remotely near fifty meters but If a person we're to go to such a depth they should buy a watch meant for that reason such as a divers watch.

It's a handsome watch, proportions are balanced and the dial is legible. I like the fact that the second hand hits the markers spot-on, on the chapter ring. And good value for money too. The great thing about the nylon watch straps is that they can be thrown in with a washing machine with the regular laundry when they get a bit grubby. Great report, well done!

Not a fan of the huge watches so popular now, don't really need Big Ben on my wrist. I went with the 36mm Expedition Scout, paid $32 bucks for it from Amazon. So far so good, it's holding up good. My second hand lines up perfectly and really doesn't bounce. As far as the noise, really? My old Timex Marlin makes a lot more noise, watches are supposed to tick.

Thanks for this review, explication effectively it is a great watch and really affordable.

I have this watch with blue face and red second hand. The second hand hits between the indices so I need to take it apart and reset the second hand. I like it and it would be perfect if it had two things: day/date rather than just date and 100meters as mentioned here. 50 is just not enough. So, I ordered the perfect field watch, a Lorus Sports which has its own version of Indiglo, 100 meters, day/date, screw on back and stainless steel case. Twice the price but worth it.

Just got mine from walmatt, no problem with anything so far, brass case??, just makes it that much more unique. Im hard of hearing anyway, so the ticking dosn't bother me. Nice watch, what I was looking for, happy with it.

Brass looks even cooler! Very glad for you, enjoy your watch :)

awesome piece , do you still wear this watch? how is it holding up?

I've had mine for about 6 years, still ticking. Has a bunch of dings and scratches, which gives it character. But it's a hit or miss with whether you get a working or defective one from the factory a lot of people complain about this.

I am glad that yours is going strong!

I have a plastic Casio whose second hand hits every index pretty much dead center, silently and without any wobble. I don't know why, but the alignment thing is not the norm, even for much more expensive quartz watches. Anyway, if Casio can do it on a sub-$30 watch, I don't see why Timex can't achieve the same on a watch with more than double the MSRP. Just one of life's mysteries.

hey! nice review! i just did a review on this same watch! i love mine!

Agree that it's a loud ticker. I turn it face down on the table next to my bed to silence that. The big negative for me is that I have bought 2 of these in the last year. The first one lasted a month before the dial that changes the time on the side just popped right out. Unable to get it to stay back in. Bought a second thinking the first was a fluke. Nope. Same thing. So Timex wants me to ship it back to them to fix it etc etc. Not for a $40 watch. I'm moving on to see what else I can find.

Does it come with a battery

Do you actually swim in water that’s 150+ feet deep 😂

This is not the best watch you can get from Timex. Eventually the second hand will go out of alignment and that can be extremely annoying to say the least. I had to throw mine away.

@@Carriesaglock get a towel and Fold It Up a few times. Place to watch face down on the towel and lay the case back onto the watch. An adjustable wrench and gently push down on the case back. That should pop the case back back onto the watch. That's what I have done the most of my watches that have a case back that won't go on easily.
