TX Men's T3C427 600 Series Pilot Fly-back Chronograph Dual-Time Zone Watch Review

TX Men's T3C427 600 Series Pilot Fly-back Chronograph Dual-Time Zone Watch

Nice looking watch and compared to its size, it it not heavy. Note the size is 47 mm which is huge so if you are not looking for sporty oversize watch, this is not for you. Cons - the thickness of the watch surprised me even though I checked a size chart before buying. It has no perpetual calendar (really? In 2010 for this price?) and the manual is written to confuse you (as an example, it says pull the date knob out when you are supposed to unscrew it out. You will figure it out but they don't make it easy for you.)

Aeronautically inspired design and expertly engineered components make the TX Men's 600 Series Pilot Fly-back Chronograph Dual-Time Zone Watch a solid stylish companion for the serious pilot. It starts with a black dial accented with black indexes to mark hours and minutes and six-hand movement to keep constant measurements with the full array of chronograph functionality. Three black subdials track minutes, seconds, and the date, and can be reset with one touch of a button for "pilot fly-back" chronograph capability. TX uses German-quartz movement and protects your display with a sapphire crystal. The stainless steel black and white bezel is a highly efficient tachymeter used to track distance and speed. Control your instruments with three large crowns on the side of the stainless steel case. The black leather band has white stitching for added detail and uses a buckle clasp to secure around your wrist. This rugged flyer-friendly timepiece is presented in a black gift box, and it is water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters).

Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/Digital Compass Watch #PAG40-3V Review

Casio Men's Pathfinder Triple Sensor Altimeter/Barometer/Digital Compass Watch #PAG40-3V

I love this watch and never travel without it. I followed the instructions in the manual and use the thermometer a lot. To get an accurate ambient air temp reading I just take off the watch and wait about 8 minutes in the shade. You can also calibrate the thermometer and found the factory setting to be dead accurate! I discovered that if you read the temp while wearing this watch it will read your skin temp and have found this to be very helpful in monitoring my skin temp. Anything less than a 83 degrees means I am starting to get uncomfortably cold and need to warm up. 86 degrees skin temp is perfect for me. Knowing this allows me to tell if I have a fever or just over worked etc.
I use the altimeter alarm function when I fly to alert me of a faulty cabin pressure system during my commercial flights. I set my PAG 40 alarm to 8000 which is the maximum altitude pressure allowed in passenger cabins set by the FAA. If the cabin pressurization goes above 8000 ft the alarm will sound on the PAG 40. There is a graph at the top of the screen to check your altitude history. The graph is also used for tracking barometer history.
I calibrate my altimeter daily to get an accurate reading since the barameter will change by the hour.
The compass feature is great and you can also calibrate that too. I find the compass usefull at night and on heavy overcast days.
You get 5 seperate alarms and a short alarm for the top of each hour. All the alarms can be turned off or on seperately.
The stopwatch function does split times and single timing. It will not do laptimes for example timing laps at a race on after the other.
It runs on 4 batteries part# 395. Which I was able to change them myself.
Watch speed calibration was also accessible!
The display is large and easy to read.
I have owned my Casio PAG 40 for two years now.
The watch band has held just great so far and the watch is free of defects.
I plan to buy two more of these watches.

Timex Chronograph Black/Grey Dial Men's Watch #T2N1566K Review

Timex Chronograph Black/Grey Dial Men's Watch #T2N1566K
Average Reviews:

The watch looks slightly different in real life but still good. You cannot see it in the pic but the Tochometer and minute rings around are actually higher and not flat with the main inner surface, which changes the looks a bit in real life. I like that color outlay and that leather strap- I will try to post some pics to show it since I could find any images of it before I bought it.
The chronograph feature (three small plates) is great for measuring time intervals and in practice is better that a stopper from me on a digital watch.
One thing that was not mentioned and that takes one star from it- there is no Indiglo light on it. I figure that it would kill the battery very quick since the chronograph must take a lot by itself- the battery life is 2 years. My Perpetual Calendar model had run on one battery for over 5 years before I smashed it accidentally. I can live without it but it should be mentioned since nowadays it is something that you would expect every Timex watch to have.

I am a watch collector and had to have one of these at the very reasonable price of US $145. I was tickled pink when it arrived. It is a beautiful watch and keeps amazingly precise time; it has 38 jewels, is automatic but can be wound, and my only complaint does not concern the watch but my eyes, being sixty I find it hard to read the day counter, but the whole face is quite legible, and for this reasonable amount for someone wanting a beautifully finished quality automatic watch I recommend it.

Nice watch, has the same features of Suunto and Tissot watches costing 3x to 6x more. I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because the band is really crappy. The band fell apart after less than a week. I bought a "The Band", heavier-duty velcro band for it. Wore it skiing in South America in August, and the altimeter / barometer worked very consistently in frequently changing altitudes and weather.
Very happy with this purchase. I have a whole drawer full of very expensive Tissot, TAG Heuer, and Breitling watches, yet I somehow wind up wearing one of my three TIMEX watches about 99% of the time. None of my TIMEX watches cost more than $75. Great product line in general.

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

Timex Men's T41501 Expedition Adventure Tech Altimeter Barometer Resin Strap Watch
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
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.

I got this watch for a couple of months now and I can say it's a greate time piece. Regarding the feel of wearing it I can say it is a bit heavyer than I expected but it gives you a sense of solidness. I recommend wearing it in casual situations, on a suit it doesn't look great unless you drive a Porsche and for the real mountaineer adventurer it might be too elegant. It is elegant urban watch. The altimeter feature works fine and you don't really need to calibratet that often. The only down side I found is that the strap might be a little fragile for the weight of the watch but maybe that is just me. All in all I recommend itas a great day to day, "a little out of the ordinary" watch.

I'm very glad with this watch.
Pros: all, This watch is accurate, user friendly, and appealing to the eye. I need to add that the Indiglo lights up the black face very well, making it easy to tell the time. In fact, you can see all of the dials, which is incredible.
Advice:Read carefully the instructions before you begin playing with the watch functions, you will think the watch is defective. The watch requires some simple to perform calibrations for the compass dials to function properly.
