TimexMen's Ironman Triathlon Classic 30 38mm Watch

Perfect little watch.I was looking for an inexpensive digital watch that was both waterproof and backlit. This does both. It's comfortable, not excessive in design, light, functional, and looks like it will withstand general use.

As reliable watch with multiple features. I use it as my alarm clock. With multiple time zones, it comes in handy when traveling abroad. The indiglo light is bright which makes it easy to read in the dark. I also use it to track my time when running.

This review is for the Timex Ironman Black/Red accent.The watch is typical band, that rubbery feel band. Comfort is fine to me. Style wise, I picked this over several less appealing styles. its not totally circular, or squarish. It should be fairly easy to clean, and I usually wipe it down once a week or so. Will fit as long as your arm isnt as beefy as Popeye.Setting time in theory is simple, no instructions needed. Was a little tricky though, as I was using my phone as reference to try and set exactly. Problem is getting used to the button and which to press when. I spent a good 5min alone navigating the time setings, until I could get within 15 seconds of the phones time and finally set it.Setting the Month/Day was similar to time, but obviously easier because you arent trying to set to match down to seconds as close as possible.I do wish the indiglo backlight was a bit stronger at least. Its worthless during day time obviously. In dark, is useable, but feels too dim in my opinion. I suppose its to ensure it doesnt waste battery power, but I am not so worried about wasting power for a watch.I have not setup the alarms so have no comment on them.Price wise, style, useablity, and compared to similar priced equivalents, its a buy

I am a Big Fan of TIMEX and I own several models, this one is my all time favorite. I've ordered it with so much excitement, but received an opened package, opened box, that was torn and destroyed, my Timex hanging out of the box!!!!!!!!!! COME ON People - We are paying our sweat money for this, at least deliver it with respect!The watch is a work of art and I love it! It's a good value for money, great in size, fits right on your wrist, feels so good, looks so cool and is super accurate! So, Thank you TIMEX !I wrote 4 Starts because of the terrible delivery service!!! Not the watch!AMAZON - Please be respectful.

This watch is easy to read, easy to use, easy to wear, and RELIABLE.I have worn smart watches, expensive analog watches, and a few variations of Timex exercise watches. This 30 lap Ironman with no sensing features (like HR) is incomparable. I keep coming back to this model after others fail or are too cumbersome to use every day. I'm done with other options. This is the best watch ever made, and I don't plan on changing.

The Ironman series of watches has been around for about 40 years now, and with good reason. The current iteration doesn't disappoint. It's light weight, easy-to-read, has a good backlight, offers simple operation, great buttons, a decently loud chime, and is a feature rich watch. I purchased this one on a lark; it was sold as "used- very good" from an Amazon warehouse for $20. The Timex packaging/ box was damaged, but the watch itself was new, wrapped and seemed unused. Since I do not wear an item's packaging, I always look for such items when shopping on Amazon, as it can save quite a bit. In this case it was $12 less expensive, or about 1/3 less costly.I have owned a digital watch for over 40 years; from left to right in the photo- my 1980 Seiko (owned since new), my daily Casio, which has solar and atomic clock radio signal time setting, and the Ironman for you to compare size. Owning a number of Casio digital watches, I was pleasantly surprised by the comfort and ease of use of this Timex Ironman. The Ironman does feel somewhat more "plasticky" that some Casio watches I have, which may influence some buyers. But once you get past that feel, if you like the look of the watch, it's a great offering, especially at a $20 price point. The on the Ironman, a chronograph, a countdown timer, a second time zone, three alarms, 30 lap records, occasion reminders , and a perpetual calendar make it comparable, or better than many of the similarly priced Casio offerings. The Ironman does not feel quite as substantial as some of the lower cost G-Shock offerings I have tried, but is at least as comfy on my 7 1/2 inch wrist. Water resistance seems fine at 100 meters, and the recessed plastic crystal should avoid most scratches. The features should be very useful for those who do not want to wear a smartwatch for training. I hope this review has been helpful.
