Review on ⌚️ Timex Men's Easy Reader Day-Date Expansion Band Wristwatch by Beth Williams

Revainrating 5 out of 5

best value for money

First let me clarify a few things about my experience with this watch versus the reviews.1. This watch fits my wrist perfectly, I'm by no means a kid, I'm a 6ft 3,230lb male with a fairly thick wrist. It feels perfect on my wrist, it feels like it's barely there but it holds its place on my wrist and it's nowhere near fully extended, but it doesn't dangle either. 2. Instructions, you mean which instructions? the one it comes with just talks about its water resistance in about 7 different languages, to get UPTODATE instructions on how to install you have to go online. That being said I did NOT have as many issues as some of the people in the reviews, I set the time, day and date in less than a minute after setting it up. However, I haven't set the alarm yet as I'm wondering if I need it at all.3. Quality, it looks like a very solid product. I don't feel like this is a cheap watch from a cheap store. , it's a solid watch.4. Check your battery, see how good the timekeeping is, I suspect a lot of people have had faulty batteries, which happens with watches this mass produced, but it's really not the fault of the product itself. Great for winter, I wear very bulky watches (like my Casio Rangeman which costs $175), but in winter, especially in the city, you don't need bulky watches that make you wear sweaters and gloves and take things out of your pocket. Complex, it slips easily under my gloves, sweater and doesn't interfere with getting things out of my bag, it's very streamlined. I like it. Overall I think this is a great watch. It reminds me a lot of what my grandfather wore and I think that's what he was aiming for, your grandfather's old chronometer with an expandable bracelet. It wasn't the prettiest thing on the planet, but it did its job and kept ticking. small update: it shows the exact time, right to the point and several days have passed. 2nd Update: It's been a month now, still as accurate as the day I installed it. 3rd update: It's now May 10th and it's still saving time and time hasn't missed a second, still to the same minute as any other accurate watch. It's been good for me in the rain, washing my hands etc. I have the silver tone and if you work hard you get scratches here and there but this is a working men's watch that wants to look nice and does its job in it. 4th update: Still not missing a single hit due to rain, snow, heat and cold. I haven't even set a timer to fix it, other than updating DSTfinal: this thing is still ticking, I didn't have to reset it, and it's accurate, it's August 2018.
