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

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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 AQW101-1ACF Active Dial Multi-Task Gear Sport Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this at the same time as a Casio Databank DB35H model. I like this AQW101 "fishing" watch better and will be using it. Just wish it had the 5 alarms like the databank models...
Pros:
1) Face is much easier to read than the DB35H.
2) The analog hands are nice to have. I find myself glacing at those and being able to read them quicker than the digital display at times.
3) The moon and temperature things are nice novelty items :-)
4) The buttons are easy to work with and so far, no problems with them getting hit by accident.
5) The overall style and finish are excellent, especially for the price.
6) The band is good quality (better than on the cheaper DB35H).
Cons:
None really, but if pressed:
1) Its a bit on the big side. Not a problem unless you're "small boned" - and even then, with the band, it conforms well to the wrist.
2) The temperature measurement is modified by your body heat (about +10F)
3) The analog hands sometime cover up the date/etc.
Sorry - no clue on the fishing prediction accuracy ! :-)

Timex Men's Watch T49551 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am frequently in the woods and use a compass. This watch is what I wanted as it precludes me carrying around a compass anymore. The watch is easy to read and seems to be fairly accurate. It is somewhat thick so check that out. Thus far I am happy with it. I found a Timex velcro wrist band at Target which allows me to wear the watch as tight or loose as I wish. Seems to be a good product.

Timex Men's T45781 Expedition E-Instruments Compass Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a new watch, I climb, sail and sea kayak, and the style appealed to me as did the functions. The purchase price from the USA was 50% of the cheapest UK price. So far so good.
It arrived transatlantic in three days costing a further pricy premium of UKP20 for P/P.
In reality it is a big chunky watch - bigger than web illustrations suggest. The face lettering and numbers are very small and even with the good back light will be hard to read accurately in poor expedition weather with deck wash/ splash. The luminous hands and hollow compass/ tide needle are so similar, they can be easily confused, especially in poor/ wet weather, and this needs a colour revision from Timex.
Calibration of functions are straightforward and accurate, but take some time, but this is reasonable.
The tide feature is particularly useful for sea kayaking and sailing the skerries of the west coast of Scotland where keel draught vs tide is often of crucial importance.
The compass with declination adjustment must be reset for each significantly new location. The compass needle defaults to the tide setting after 20secs to save the battery, and understandable as this is, its a nuisance. The bezel moves easily unlike my Suunto. The Suunto altitude/ barometer watch defaults after a full minute. So accurate navigation using the compass feature in low visibility is not effectively possible. The compass is therefor a feature for occasionally checking good visibility headings and back bearings. It does not do away with a conventional compass. Most sea kayakers would have a deck compass or GPS, and would not decuff their waterproof layer and stop paddling to use this watch with its 20 secs default. The main knurled adjuster bites the back of my hand when paddling unless using offset paddle handles. Altering the metal links of the wrist band to wear inside or outside a glove is strictly an indoors and irritating procedure. The temperature feature in pragmatic terms is a gimmick unless the watch is removed from the wrist for 5 minutes.
In summary- I like the watch for its handsome chunky appearance, and especially at the USA purchase price. But its not a true expedition instrument, but remains fairly unique for its tide function which is really handy in judging flat tide, ebb and flow and engaging favourable currents and eddies. For this and its appearance it has pleased me.

Timex Men's T49792 Expedition E-Altimeter Cream Dial Brown Leather Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Yes, it is a big, heavy watch. But that's the style these days. I'm 6' tall, 183 pounds, and it suits me fine. The size makes a bold statement on your wrist. It is a way you can have a fashionable watch that actually does something instead of just being big and blingy. It has a nice technical look to it that is nicely offset by the satin-finished stainless steel case and the chocolate-brown leather strap.
I measured the case width at 53 mm and I included the crown in that measurement. The Amazon details and even the Timex website say that it is 50 mm, but I don't think that's quite right. A measurement of 50 mm would be correct only if you didn't include the crown. From what I can tell the crown is generally included in the "case width" or "case diameter" measurement for watches.
I've only had the thing for less than an hour so I can't tell you how well the altimeter remains calibrated. But I read the instructions and set it up fairly easily.
An interesting note about the altimeter. It doesn't remain "on" full-time. You press a button to activate it, and it shows the altitude until you press the button again, or until 60 minutes elapse. So you can't just glance at the watch to see your altitude at any time: you have to press a button first. Not a big deal, but I found it curious. Maybe energy is reuquired in order to show the altitude, and so it is a way of saving battery power??? And actually, even if the altitude is showing, you can't just "glance" at the watch and read the altitude. The markings are small enough that must look carefully. But I doubt that anyone is going to be buying this thing for skydiving, right?!?
I love the orange details on the face/hands/case.
Enjoy.

Timex Men's T45581 Expedition E-Instruments Tide Temperature and Compass Watch Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)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.
