TimexMen's Expedition Scout 40mm Watch

This is a nice basic watch. Looks good, water proof as much as any regular guy needs. Visible at night for a while. Backlight is just right. Good purchase.Second review. The backlight quit working. Therefore this watch is junk. Maybe good for a child. It keeps time, but not what I was looking for. I'll keep it for work I guess. I don't want to go through the pain of returning.

As someone who's relatively new to the world of watches and primarily used my phone for time-telling (and formerly a smart watch), the Timex Expedition Scout 40mm has been a pleasant revelation. I wasn't looking for anything overly fancy or complicated, just a reliable analog watch to help me cut down on my phone screen time, and this watch delivers perfectly.The 40mm size is just right for my wrist – it's noticeable without being bulky. The design is classic and rugged, making it versatile enough for everyday wear, whether I'm at work or out on a casual adventure. The clear, easy-to-read dial with its distinct hands makes telling time at a glance effortless, which was a major goal for me.One of the best features, especially for someone trying to distance themselves from digital distractions, is its sheer simplicity. It's a watch that just tells time, and it does it perfectly. No notifications, no apps, just a straightforward, dependable timepiece. This has genuinely helped me be more present and less reliant on my phone throughout the day.The build quality feels solid for the price point. It's comfortable to wear, and the Indiglo backlight is a fantastic addition for checking the time in low-light conditions. For anyone new to analog watches, or simply looking for a robust, no-frills watch that encourages less phone dependency, the Timex Expedition Scout is an excellent, reliable, and fun choice. It's a fantastic entry point into traditional timekeeping!

Very simple and elegant watch. Does its job and nothing more. I've used it for dress and for work, law enforcement, with no issue. The only reasons its not getting 5 stars: the strap is mediocre at best and it is VERY loud. The strap has two bands that contain the excess and they seem to barely be able to do their job. The last one wore out very quickly and barely holds onto the strap now after 6 months. As for the noise, I can hear the watch ticking from across the room. Sleeping with it on is very sub optimal. Overall, for the price it is an excellent watch and you are getting what you pay for.

So I have a nice watch for work, and I have a beat up watch for outdoors (four wheeling, fishing, hunting, yard work, etc). I have been purchasing g-shock watches for the beater watch every couple years, and I was thinking of getting a $200 luminox for a beater watch, but I decided to give this guy a shot first ….. especially since it was on sale for $30 or so). I figured it would be cheaply made, but that could not be further from the truth. This watch appears to be made very well. It has a good weight to it, and the band is comfortable. It is easy to read, and the indigo is not overpowering. Definitely worth the money. I would strongly recommend this product.

This is an amazing watch. Yeah it’s simple, but it looks, feels, and just overall functions like a nice watch. Definitely recommend for anyone that has big hands and wants a watch to match their outfit.

I needed a cheap watch that I don’t need to worry about hurting when I go hunting, fishing, or camping. This watch seems ideal for my use. I love the wristband as it seems to stay cool on my wrist in the Florida heat. I have already had this watch fully submerged in saltwater without rinsing it off, and have had no issues with rust forming on any parts. The indiglo is perfect for being able to check the time, while not having to look at a bright screen that may mess up my eyes from seeing in the dark.Some reviews mention it is loud. I don’t notice mine unless it’s within 2 feet from my ear.I was pleasantly surprised by the look too. I wouldn’t hesitate to wear this out on the town. I have already

I wanted a field watch for everyday use with an easy to read numerated dial. I looked at field watches made by a few higher end brand watch companies & decided they were too expensive for everyday use. Then I found out about these Timex Expedition series watches & I was intrigued. I haven't owned a Timex watch since the 1970s. So I purchase this Timex Expedition watch at a bargain price to roll the dice. And I was very surprised by what I got. The watch case size is perfect, not too big & not too small. The matte gray gunmetal case finish looks nice & is not reflective. The crystal is mineral glass & not plastic. The dial face looks excellent with large & very readable 1 to 12 numbers with smaller 13 to 24 hours sub imposed behind the larger numbers. So the watch has 24 hr enumeration like a military watch. The watch hour & minute hands are sized nicely & very viewable. The second hand is an arrow shape painted yellow for added visibility. The quartz accuracy is spot on. The dial back glow lighting is very useful in bad light conditions. The green canvass strap is rugged & doesn't feel cheap. The straps field green color is spot on. This watch looks more expensive that it is. Timex did an excellent job with the design & construction of these Expedition watches. All things said, a great value for the dollar.

Decent watch for the price. The Timex Expedition line is fairly comfortable, the dial is very easy to read. The Indiglo backlight is very bright and helps in low light situations. I’ve been wearing this watch on and off for a while seems to keep decent time. The beige dial has a good vintage vibe to it as well. The mechanism is a little loud when ticking, im guessing it’s due to the brass case? But all in all a decent daily watch that does the job.
