Timex Expedition WS4 Yellow Strap, Black/Yellow Face Review

Timex Expedition WS4 Yellow Strap, Black/Yellow Face

This watch is great for instant information that shows when the barometer drops suddenly which is very useful when boating out here in the North West.
A rapid pressure drop warning alarm would have a been very useful addition and I am surprised that the designers did not include that feature.

Timex Expedition WS4 Widescreen 4-Function Watch (Black/Green) Review

The watch in all is a good watch. It lives up to expectations but the compass failed within 1 month of purchase. I sent the watch back in for repairs and have not received it back yet but customer service was really decent. I think personally that it is as accurate as some of the several suunto's that I own. Except for the compass issue it seems to be a great deal.

Timex Men's T41501 Expedition Adventure Tech Altimeter Barometer Resin Strap Watch Review

I bought this watch because I needed a new one and because I was curious about how pressure varies during airplane flights. So far I like all the features of this watch. It tells time quite accurately, is very easy to read in various conditions, and many of its features are intuitive. So far it also seems to be fairly rugged, which was a concern, though for under $100, I am not too concerned, as long as it lasts a few years.
Note that if you are serious about using the altimeter, you must know an accurate starting altitude (to with 10 feet) or the barometric pressue when you start your hike. Otherwise, the watch has no chance of giving accurate altitude readings. In climates that have very frequent pressure changes, you'll need a topographical map or wireless access to the Internet to recalibrate during your hike.

Timex Men's T45601 Expedition E-Instruments Compass Tide Temperature Watch Review

Timex Men's T45601 Expedition E-Instruments Compass Tide Temperature Watch
Average Reviews:

This thing is freakin awesome!!! Yes, it is huge. The 1st time I put it on I commented to my wife that it looks like one of our kitchen bowls sitting on my wrist. However, the more I wore it, the more used to it I got, and thus, the more I fell in love with this magnificent watch.
It's hard to tell if the temp gauge is accurate or not, because on my wrist, it appears accurate, but when I take it off and set it on the counter in the same room, it will decrease by about 5 degrees. I wonder if Timex configured the watch to adjust for body heat. Possibly.
The compass does work, and it is accurate, BUT, you must calibrate it correctly or it will not be accurate. Follow the instructions carefully and remember 2 important things. 1st, to get the an accurate reading, the watch (assuming it's on your wrist), MUST be level. And 2nd, if you're close to any electronic device (computer, TV, and yes, a car) it will throw it off a few degrees. I believe the radio waves interfere. I never use the E-tide.
Bottom line: get this friggin thing - you will not be disappointed!

Timex Men's T49791 Expedition E-Altimeter Black Dial Stainless Steel Watch Review

Just purchased the watch something I had been waiting on for over a year. This seems to be the only relatively affordable analog watch with an altimeter. I am sure that there are other analog altimeter watches but very expensive. Casio Pathfinder is an all digital watch and I have something against digital watches. When this came along in June this year I was elated but waited for the price to drop somewhat. Some folks would say that this watch is huge and that it is. It weighs a ton but I like heavier watches. If someone has a small wrist, I would not recommend this watch for them. The setting up and calibration of the watch takes a bit getting used to but its fairly straightforward. I wish that Timex would come up with a watch combining a compass and altimeter in one!! Well done in creating an awesome timepiece!!

Timex Expedition WS4 Widescreen 4-Function Watch (Black/Orange) Review

First of all I love Timex -- this watch keeps time well, it's alarm works fine, all the usual time piece type stuff work fine. However those things are not the reason you would buy this watch, you buy it for the altimeter,barometer,thermometer, weather condition and compass right ? Well the altimeter was off -- the barometer was off- I was unable to adjust them -- the compass went haywire on me only once , thank god I was not in the back country and really needed it --the temperature ( the manuel says" it will be off by 10 degrees") mine was off by 12 - 15 degrees , it recommends it be worn on your belt- if you want an accurate reading- ON YOUR BELT-- IT'S A WRISTWATCH. The weather conditions well if the other settings don't work that feature didn't have a chance . I gave it time, I played with it, I wanted it to work but will listen to reviews more carefully next time.
