Review: Classy looking and feature rich, would recommend. - Snazzy as all hell, man. I've got a few watches, all Casio/G-Shock and to me this is comparable to the Casio DW6900 in size albeit a little more compact and smaller. Feature-wise the Timex is pretty similar in most respects but a bit better overall. I'll use the Casio mentioned as a comparison here and there as a run down the features of this watch: Screen/digits are large and clear, very easy to read. Modifying the settings is easy and each function has prompts for turning something on/off anyways, should one not have a manual to hand (available online, mine came without a manual but some foldout paper in a few different languages with battery and water resistance information on it). Double the height of the DW6900 and aesthetically I like both but kinda leaning more towards the Timex right now. On some models the 3 eyes serve a function but on the DW they just tick round in seconds and are a visual treat more or less. You can mute the beeps/button presses. Personal preference here but it would do my head in having the beeps sound constantly when setting timers or chrono, I prefer being able to select this on or off as per requirement. The date format can be to DD/MM. This is boss, cos everyone outside the US uses this, the normal way. X’D Has dual time. This is not world time but can set two independent times in timekeeping mode). Good stuff and perfect for seeing when people in other parts of the world are awake. Not much of a jet-setter at present but perfect for those 'OK, they're awake, can start trolling them' moments. :) Timer has autorepeat. Although this is also present on the DW6900 it's not featured on a lot of Casio watches (e.g: GD350, an absolute awesome watch packed full of functions, only let down by lack of autorepeat) which I think it dumb, lolz. Not sure how much I'd use the lap timer/chronograph on any watch but I'm sure if you're reading this or thinking of purchasing you know what the crack is here in regards to timing one's laps and the like. Had a play about with the recall function and it does what it says in Timex's blurb, I'll probably find some use for it if only motivating myself to get into shape again. X'D The indiglo feature works well and as it should, it lights up the digits rather than the whole screen, perfect for night time checking. The 'nightlight' feature or whatever it's called is great too, the watch stays lit up at every button press which imo is a bit better that auto-illumination but tastes may vary depending on whether one wants it to double up as a torch (a lot of watches with ultra-brite white leds tend to do this). Material-wise it seems really well put together, I doubt it's as robust as the DW6900/G-shock but unless you're going out of your way to smash it I think it'll hold up under the majority of conditions. There's a nice touch with the strap keeper, the watch band has two ridges that hold it in place which is a brilliant little design element given the usual nature of this watch. The buckle is plastic and not metal, not the end of the world but metal/stainless steel would've been nicer. The watch came with a nice plastic stand and all, I've got a couple of these and they're great for putting solar watches in and charging them up at the windowsill. For £34 it's a pretty good deal all round. Would recommend for exercisers and watch nerds alike. I've added a few photos to show size and those nice strap keeper ridge things. Update 29/12: I think the clasp is metal but coated.
Review: Timex Ironman. A classic watch as good as expected - I received this watch yesterday, so this is a first impressions review. I really like this watch, it is a very popular classic that does what it says it does. Qualitywise it seems pretty sturdy and able to take a hit with no problem. I'll go through the pros and cons: PROS - If feels solid. This is a watch that wants to compete or be in pair with a Casio G-Shock. It says 'Shock' on the bracelet, it has a mineral crystal lens, and it looks like a watch embedded in a carved stone (maybe because of the watch's colours) - Very easy to read I am over 40yo, and my sight is not as good as it was a few years ago. Last Sunday, I went for a running to the park near my house. I was wearing a smart band, pretty good quality for the price, but apart from the main time display, when you enter 'exercise mode', the information displayed and digits in the screen are too small for me. I found myself having to check the time on the phone while running, and it is very inconvenient to play with pocket zippers while running. When I arrived home, I decided I would get a digital watch with big digits (I use the chrono and timer all the time while exercising). I must say I have a couple of G-Shocks, and even though I can read the digits on my DW-5600 when I am running, it takes a few milliseconds to process the numbers. Also, the date is much harder to read in the G-Shock. I have a GA-2000 too, and its analogue handles are super easy to read, but using the timer/chrono on it is not great, as the digital displays it has are tiny (for me) - INDIGLO Let me repeat it: INDIGLO. Wow, the best feature! Please check my video. Love at first sight! - Dual time, where you can adjust Time 2 with a different date (day, month, year!). I have never seen this before. You may think: 'that is not useful at all!' ...Ask a time traveller :p - You can set the alarm as Daily, Weekdays, or Weekends Ok, now the things I don't like so much: CONS - The watch is quite tall, so it may be a problem to wear it with a long sleeve shirt - The screen is blank for some time when entering the Chrono, Timer, and Alarm modes You can see that in my video when I scroll through the options and stay on the timer page - Only one alarm I am used to the five alarms available on my G-Shocks - When on Chrono or Timer mode, the current time is not displayed This is one of my favourites features of the 'square' G-Shocks Overall, this is a perfect watch. It ticks many boxes for me, being the main ones the bigger digits and night light that makes reading the time at night easy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the watch have interval mode ?**
A: I time intervals using the split feature in the chrono mode.

**Q: What kind of battery does it use and how long does it last**
A: Don't know the kind of battery.  Experience in past is it last about 3 years.  I have taken a similar  watch to a jeweler  that sells and services Bolivia watches  and had the battery successfully replaced for around $10.00 and last another 3 years.

**Q: Can two seperate countdowns be placed? For example, can I have it countdown from 40 then countdown from 1:00 and have it repeat in that interval?**
A: Hi there! This watch style only has 1 countdown timer and doesn't have the interval feature with multiple timers . For further enquiries you may call our customer service team at 800-448-4639 or send us an email at custserv@timex.com.

**Q: Can i get replacement bands for model timex men's tw5m24200 digital ironman watch?**
A: The replacement strap is currently out of stock from our website, Timex.com. You can also send the watch in to Timex for a band replacement and let our Repair Facility replace the band for you. 
For further assistance or questions, please let me know or call our customer service center at 800-448-4639.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great build quality
*by C***O on 11 October 2025*

Really solid build, has a quality feel to the swatch and the strap. The display is simple and clear, time is easily visible at a glance. The stopwatch is more complex than any I've ever had, its not something I'll use though. 200m water resistance and shock proof is great. Only con for me is I would have the diameter be 3 or 4mm greater, with it being quite thick it makes the face look smaller, plus I just like bigger watches on my wrist. It does look nice on and if you like a reasonably sized watch or have smaller wrists this could be the one for you. It actually looks better irl than in pics also
