I'll need to do some traveling to test this watch with the overseas atomic-clock services. The display is nice and clear - and the night version is easier to read at all angles than my old Timex Expedition watch. It synchronizes easily with the WWVB signal, and I compare it to my Oregon Scientific atomic alarm clock - about 1.5 second difference - will need to compare both to WWV to find out which is correct. The setup function is easy to do. One neat feature is the little bump on the end of the wristband that locks into the "keeper" loop - it apparently is to keep the end of the band from sticking out and snagging on things. Considering that I was looking at a $20 charge to replace the battery on the Expedition, the $27 plus shipping on this watch was a great deal.

Low price, good value

I have always found Timex watches to be a good value for everyday use. This watch is no exception. it keeps great time, looks good and as I said for daily wear it's a super deal. I have more expensive watches but only for special occasions. This is my every day watch.

I just bought this watch--just came in the mail--and I'm still getting used to it. It seems to be fine so far; replaces my old Timex whose Li battery finally gave out. Hope this one's is Li too. It was time to upgrade to one of those "atomic" watches.

br /It sync'd just fine to WWVB which is just up the road; it's still ~a second out from my computer which I just sync'd to NIST using NISTTIME32.EXE. I don't know how accurate that is. Haven't taken it out of town or overseas yet to see how it does.
br /
br /One thing it's missing is a few half-hour time zones as well as Kwajalein which is on GMT - 12. That time zone is missing but it has all 23 other hour time zones. Must tell Timex about the missing ones.

This is my first atomic or battery powered watch and so far I am very pleased with the way it keeps time it is right on the money with my work time clock which is also atomic. I think this is a great watch and also is very simple to use and also looks good.

I was very happy with the delivery time. The watch was not new but came to me in new condition. The watch was in the original packaging with the warranty and instructions included. I am very satisfied with this purchase and I would definitely buy from this seller in the future.

Great Product

In an earlyer review I brought up a minor problem. Timex was happy to help me with the adjustment. I might also bring up how quick they were to respond and how easy it was to get connected to a REAL person. Thank you Timex.
