Review on πŸƒ Discover Exceptional Performance with Marathon by Timex Mid-Size Watch by King Reeves

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Short lifespan, small screen

My husband gave me this watch for Christmas. Worked for 5 days, then the screen went off. In their short lives, these little clocks showed the time. I'm not a runner so I didn't test the lap features etc. This watch was chosen for the color and wrist size (wanted orange and fits a small wrist). The screen was very small and without reading glasses it was difficult for my "adult eyes" to read. (I especially like - and prefer - the Ironman series. The displays are a bit larger.) I really don't blame Timex for the short lifespan because their products usually work well and I have no doubt it was a battery issue. as mechanical failure. I suspect the battery died before it even got to our house and I blame the supplier, not the watchmaker. There is usually a plastic tab to keep the battery from working, but in this case it was absent. Replacing the battery costs the same as the original cost of the watch, so we decided to return the watch. All to say that Revain was a BIG return.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Good but not great
