Men's Expedition Scout 40mm Watch

I bought this watch as I work in a very busy unit that monitors multiple screens of patients EKG and respiratory status. We record our calls and the time of them to alert staff to changes and potentially dangerous findings. Its vital to have a watch that keeps good time and even more vital to have a watch that's extremely easy to read in ALL lighting conditions. This one does both, at a price that was surprisingly good. Pressing the crown lights the dial and is very easy to see in dim light. HIghly rated for its visibility alone. This is NOT a solar watch, it has a replaceable battery. But I gladly make that trade for the wonderful visibility that requires just the quickest glance to tell the time. Additionally the watch seems to be well made, it's heavier than the typical digital watch. The leather band also seems thick and sturdy. Overall I HIGHLY recommend this watch and feel it was great value for the price. At the time I registered my watch on the Timex website they even included a lifetime warranty. Granted that's not a massive issue with a relatively economical watch, but it does speak to the confidence the company has in their product. As noted the watch does have some weight to it. And it probably is not the best watch for someone who wants a small watch. Neither of those factors were important to me. I've gotten compliments on this watch and it is good looking imho.

An amazing watch for the price. Timex has produced a solid, stylish timepiece that punches way above its weight. The instrument’s unique Indiglo technology illumination is perfect for watch reading in dark conditions. The watch’s original band is a decent genuine leather strap but it looks even better upgraded with a top grain leather or marine nationale strap. No regrets on buying an Expedition Scout watch. A no brainer purchase for anyone looking for an inexpensive entry-level field watch.

It's a great watch. The bin's very comfortable I've been wearing not neutrilistic night on bands for many years. You don't have to worry about getting the band wet. Because weather, once you get it wet, it's destroyed. But the watch, it's very accurate. It's got a beautiful presentation. It's just the right weight. You know, defend super comfortable. And it's very easy to set. I mean, I baby, I baby, my watches. I'm so as much as I try not to get a little scratchy Martino. It happens, but generally they hold up very well and over, you know, I keep them for about 3 years. And you know, then I refoice them with the same model. So I've been buying the same model. Watches like especially this one for many years. And yeah, I bought another time X iron. And you know, a couple days ago, and they're just great watches, you know, so and there, I mean, there are about $20 less than ¥, the cassios, but but this is, you know, a little more dressier, which is what I wanted. So that that's one of the reasons why I bought it. You know plus I've had this brand I've been, you know, I've always loved the expedition series. And the ironman that I focused the other day is also very good too. So those series of arches are great, they're great watches. Do one thing I want to mention about the, you know, they don't have to keep Earth that shift their stationary. So you don't have to worry about this, annoying thing. And the keepers on the an ironman that I got the other day. Ian, you know, it's got the one top keeper and the one top lug. You know, I mean you can adjust the bands which I have done. But I would advise not doing it, because if you've got a really small wrist, I mean, I almost have a wrist of it's 6 holes for you know, from where the top to the middle comes to. So you know, the keepers, you know, I didn't even adjust it. Because it was, you know, you know, because you had destroyed the integrity of the band I believe.And you know, and there's enough room in there.In other word, bows not to wear it not away.The bands, the rubber bands, especially on time x.Going, you know, they're put perfectly.So you can.So you can have it on a high adjustment.And even an even bring the keeper down.And you're going to get great performance out of it

Much better quality than I expected at this price point! I got this as a beater, it seems it will do the job! Nice finish and weight. Looks tough, great looking lume! I did NOT like the strap, so I replaced it, much better. Well worth the money!

I thought this watch was resin or plastic and that would feel much cheaper. To my surprise the watch is actually metalic and feels a lot better than expected, it's probably brass. The movement in this solar version is not as loud as the other expedition scouts. The wristband is also much nicer than expected, it's not full grain but a decent genuine strap that's better than other PU offerings in similar priced watches. There's even a nice detailed buckle on it. Will do as a daily driver, a weekend laid back watch or even as a smart casual watch.

I’ve worn this watch for 5 days now and I like it. I use it as an everyday work watch and I haven’t had any problems with it. It has a functioning date indicator on it and has a toggle glow in the dark function. The numbers are very readable and I don’t have to squint to read the time. It fits perfectly fine and you can adjust it to the size of your wrist. It’s 40mm in diameter so it’s a decent size. I like the size for what it is because I don’t like anything below 40mm. The watch is a little thick which is good because it can take some scrapes and scuffs here and there and still work fine. Lastly, I don’t know why so many people are complaining about the noise level of the ticking. It’s almost unnoticeable unless you really put your ear to it to hear it. Unless you’re audibly looking for it (or place it by your ears) you’re not going to really hear it in my opinion. Overall I think it’s a great watch for the price and for what I was looking for. It’s not something to be fancy or stylish; just functional and simple. It’s a cheap watch that doesn’t necessarily feel too cheap to wear. Thankfully it hasn’t broken on me or stopped working randomly on me or anything like that and even after I’ve set it I barely have to go back and adjust the time. It will sometimes get off by a few seconds after some days but that’s not an issue for me and is an easy fix.

Got this on sale for a little over $30, and it easily hits well beyond that. The dial is highly legible and the font on the legends is quite nice. The orange on the seconds hand is a good contrast to the rest of the watch. The illumination is great and easy to activate. The stainless steel case feels sturdy, just like a field watch should feel. The only thing I'm iffy on is the eco friendly strap, but it's been 2 weeks and it seems to be holding up okay for now. For sizing, I have a 6.75" wrist, which is on the smaller side. The case is a bit on the larger size for my wrist size, but it's at the upper limit of what I'm personally willing to accept, so I can't complain. This is definitely more of an out and about sort of watch. It's something you can throw around and not worry about it getting smashed up. Casio and Timex excel at making watches like this. I wouldn't say its as versatile as my other watches, and I wouldn't wear this while trying to dress more elevated. That's not what this watch is meant for anyway. Now onto the main con. This watch is loud. I can hear it right now while it's on my desk. I can hear it on my wrist in between keystrokes while typing at the office. I actually don't want to put this on my nightstand because I'd hear it in my nightmares. I think me and a lot of watch lovers actually enjoy listening to how different watches tick, but being able to do it at arms length is a little overboard. Thankfully, I don't spend a ton of time in quiet environments and I don't keep my watches in the bedroom, so I don't have to deal with this problem very often.

Love this watch. The face of it is so easy to read even in low light. The simple classic design looks great. Water isnt an issue or hasn't been yet anyways. Has been submerged and been fine. Already a few oil and grease stains on the band from working on my tractors but that is too be expected with my lifestyle. It adds "character". The date and time are super easy to set and theres no steps to go through that'll surely be forgotten twice a year for dst. The backlight is excellent. Just how I remember one of my dad's Timex watches being back in the mid 90s. My only complaint, and its a slight one, is I wish the crown was on the left od slightly recessed. I wear my watch on my left hand and the crown digs in a bit if you are doing chores or working with it on. Not a deal breaker as most watches seem to have the crown on the right. I love this watch.
