Many Times, the Old-Fashioned, "Boring" Ones Make the Best Life Partners
Summary: This is a review for the black "Camper" style Expedition watch with a black Velcro Fast Wrap band. This style is unique from the other Expedition Acadia watches offered by Amazon in that it has water resistance of 100M instead of 50M for the other models. I have seen some non-Amazon reviews showing this same black Timex Expedition watch with 50M water resistance, but mine is 100M. I believe that there is also a white dial version of this watch, too, that is available on Amazon, but it is listed separately from the other Acadia models.
A quick rundown of watch details: 38mm resin case, quartz movement, 100M water resistant, Indiglo, push crown at 3 o'clock with modest protectors flanking the crown, date complication, hackable second hand, stainless steel screw down case back, Fast Wrap Velcro band, black dial, white Arabic numerals, small military time designations, flush acrylic face, white lumed minute and hour hands, and red second hand. All in all, a very simple watch design.
Wow! Didn’t expect to like this watch SO much
I got tired of my Apple watch reminding me to stand up, or close rings. I decided to abandon it for an “old school” dial watch. I was ready for lower tech. This Timex sold me visually, but I was even more pleasantly surprised when it arrived. Its well-made, really easy to read, has the date… and lights up a beautiful aqua color with the “indiglo” feature. Honestly, I avoid reviews because so many items are NOT what they appear to be online. This is a winner- and worthy of my time to review. You’ll love this watch!
Nice inexpensive watch
First of all - the price for this watch is perfect! The watch is accurate in time keeping and endures the hardware store evironment where I work for 40+ hours a week. It is a lightweight watch - something that you notice the first time you open the box.... But, that is appreciated when worn daily. Overall, a good watch for a rough environment.
Its a Times
Nothing fancy and does not have 86 features to confuse you. Like that. A bit harrd to read at 3 AM, but that could be me not the watch. It does exactly what I bought it for. Keeps the time and has a background light feature. Takes a licking and keeps on Ticking.
A Good Watch as usual
I have owned several of this type watch in the past and they all lasted for years and I was not easy on them.
I always bought them at a nearby Timex Outlet store that has since closed which led me to purchase this one from Amazon.
Easy to read, Lights up well in the dark. What's not to like?
It's actually light weight for a Timex.
I have had several Timex Expeditions. This one is the best one yet that I've owned. The last two had some defects. This one has had no problems. The light works, the case is well sealed, and the band is great. I love that the stem is protected on two sides and can't get caught on things, which is a great bonus for me. The stem came off the last Expedition watch I had, and I lost it, and that's not going to happen on this one. I was surprised that the watch was so lightweight. That's an extra bonus. A very good watch for a very good price. What did I expect? I grew up with the following commercial "Timex takes a licking and keeps on ticking."
