Timex Ironman Men's Classic 38 mm Digital Watch

Highly recommended. All functions work as described. Particularly useful to have day and month displayed. Lots of functions but each one can be disabled if required and then re-enabled. This is the smaller model for a smaller wrist. By far the best digital watch I have had.

With a momentary sub £15 price tag, my previous version of the same watch with yellow highlights can now be retired after a battery change means it fogs up when in the shower. This is a good watch, suitably sized to allow all sport to be played with it on, mainly field hockey for me. Watch has three alarms, an occasion reminder alarm, 30 lap, Over 50 hour stop watch; and upto 24hour coutdown timer as well as duel time zones that are switchable on a single button press. With a 100m water resistance will happily cope with shallow level (<20m) scuba diving too. All in all bargin.

The watch is as described, an apparently very accurate timepiece with an LCD display and various stopwatch functions; the latter I never use anyway! It is comfortable to wear and the time display is very easy to read. I would have thought it relatively expensive at it's full RRP, but I didn't pay anything near that! At that price (£13 approx) I would have given it five stars save for a minor annoyance. The strap has a small hook that engages with the strap holes to ensure a comfortable non slip fit. Unfortunately it also makes the watch difficult to take off and I wonder whether the flexing required to release the little hook will have an adverse effect on the life of the strap. Still pleased I bought it.

Ordered a 'very good condition' second hand one and it had some scratches on the screen and wristband. Thankfully I was able to use a Dremel and mostly polish out the scratch on the screen so I'm OK with it now. It was £10 cheaper than new, so a bit of hassle fixing it is fair enough I guess. They are nice watches. The plastics do end up falling to bits after a few years, but that's probably the same for most plastic watches.

This is the fourth Timex Ironman watch that I've had in the last 20 years or more. I've worn all of them all day and every day for whatever I am doing eg. gardening, diy/decorating/construction, swimming, exercise, socialising etc etc., I just give it a wash if it gets dirty/sweaty. They have all kept perfect time and all the functions have worked perfectly all the time. I've only bought a new one as the battery had finally run out on it's predecessor.

I would say its mid-size & not too large on my skinny boney wrists. It looks cool & has the usual handy things you need from a watch. It has three alarms which have pleasant & surprising individual beeping tones. I would certainly buy again.

This is a digital chronograph in the slightly older style (ie pre Apple type watches) but it’s easy to read, waterproof, totally reliable, has timer and alarms as well as 2 different time zones and keeps you on track with the day of the week! Excellent value for money.

Bought this watch mainly to swim in when training. I do triathlons and have a garmin cycle gps and wanted something to record splits when swiming. Initially it did exactly what I wanted but after about a year the strap has split - very dissapointed - I superglued and ducttaped it and have got another 4 months out of it but another split has appeared in the strap :-( I now have a garmin 910XT so only really use the timex for knocking about but am still dissapointed in a perfectly good watch being let down by a strap! I thought it would of been a bit better.
