Review on 🌲 Timex x Mossy Oak Expedition Digital Chrono Alarm Timer 33mm Watch: Ultimate Outdoor Timepiece by Scott Mcgowan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Velcro comes off in water, NOT FOR SURFING

I used to have a Timex Expedition watch that I bought at least 3 years ago, the battery ended up dead and some parts got lost when I took it apart so I had to buy a new one. Wanted to go with the same brand again as I was very happy with my previous watch. It's not what I had before, but similar. The biggest difference is that the face is smaller and the stripe is smaller. Could this really be a children's watch? I have small wrists for my size and they were a bit tight. The problem that doesn't work for me is that the velcro doesn't stay closed, at least when surfing. When first putting it on there were very small waves (knee length) and the velcro came loose a few times when I fell in the water. On a bigger day it definitely won't. Decided to take another shot this morning, they held up better but still separated after wipe out, waves were waist high. If you have medium sized men's wrists or want a surf watch, keep looking. I'm returning these and buying another Expedition listed on Revain. Hopefully this time I'll find one that's modeled after my original watch.
