Review on 38mm Timex Easy Reader Date Watch with Expandable Band by Laura Crawford

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Updated watch review at a good price

I have had this watch for about a month now and my first experiences are positive. They keep time well, losing about half a second a day, which is better than my older, more expensive Seiko. I love the stainless steel back and bracelet which shouldn't corrode like the $10 watch I wear every day (to work). I also like the large hands and numbers which are easier to read for the visually impaired like me. The group is one of the easiest to set up I've ever had. In less than five minutes, a link was removed from each side of the breech. If this watch lasts at least five years, I'll be happy with the purchase. Update: I've had this watch for over a year now and I've upgraded my rating from four stars to five. The watch works perfectly, still looks decent and keeps a great time. The reason I came back was to see if it was available. I'm seriously considering buying another one while it's still available if I need a watch that looks like new. Update 2: It's been 5 1/2 years and the clock is still working. I replaced the battery after about four years, but that was only because the battery is cheap and I didn't want the watch to fail at the wrong time. It's still keeping time around the same level, losing about half a second a day. There are some small scratches on the case and glass of the watch, but they still look decent for a watch I wear every day. I said if the watch lasts five years I'll be happy with my purchase. Well it's been over five years and I'm happy with the watch.
