TimexMen's Easy Reader Watch

Perhaps the most perfect watch for its purpose. THE most easily readable watch I’ve ever had — perfect for those of us with aging eyes. I can even read the date complication, which is near impossible for me on other watches. The band sucks, but with a change out to what I like, the watch is a winner. And on sale for $22, it can’t be beat. Also, the indiglo feature is aces. I like Casio, but Timex has them beat on the lighting front. I have to say that the engineering behind this watch is subtle and sophisticated — the combination date/time/indiglo adjustment knob is a thing of beauty. There are plenty of >$500 watches that don’t offer this level of user satisfaction.

I needed a watch with a second hand and a full Arabic numeral display for volunteering at a local tourist railroad. This fit the bill perfectly. Comfortable, understated, easy to read (as the name implies), and the day/date display and 24 hour numbers are great features to have. I set it when I first got it and now three weeks later it is only 3 seconds slow compared to my phone. The movement is not obnoxiously loud as some reviews would have you believe. I can hear it while wearing it in a quiet room, but not on my dresser when I’m in bed. I would not hesitate to buy another should the need arrive.

Not sure how long battery will last but this is a very nice watch. Will pretty much go with anything.

The media could not be loaded. I chose this watch over my apple watch 8 because i hated having to recharge it, plus it would keep distracting me and redirecting me to my phone. I don't need another distraction in my life.So this watch is pretty dope.Why it's awesome-the metal case is beautifully polished and has thin bezels unlike those heavy duty plastic or g-shock watches with their hella buttons and ugly design-the numbers on the dial are pretty legible at arms distance, the indiglo light is very handy too. Also, i appreciate how the design team kept the amount of words on the dial minimal.- the timex watch displays the day of the week along with the today's date which is handy cause i never what day it is.constructive criticisms and opinions:-Changes i would make to the dial:- I would prefer Avenir Next font for the Numbers because the number 8, and 10 kinda look odd bc they're not perfectly circular and the number seven has an ugly bit on the tip that makes it stand out a bit from the other numbers.- i would make the second hand color matte silver or matte black to give the watch a refined and modern look, the red second hand gives it a retro look that is beautiful for others- i would some of the words and leave just the word Timex on the dial cause they don't have to be there. they could be engraved on the stainless steel backing- i would add those handy 5 minute markers on the outer edge of the dial because it would make reading the watch faster and easier-2 flaws that kinda irk me:-the indiglo light doesn't fully encompass the dial , there's just a tiny bit of the screen that cannot not light up and it looks a little ugly.- i get that there's probably something important in that notch, but if y'all could design a watch that fully lights up that would killer!-i wish the minute and hour hands were different and like the chrome ones with the refined tip from the weekender series.- this design does look like it has a slimmer design in the center of the dial/cannon pinion than those on the weekender series. the watch feels a little harder to read because i sometime cant tell where the hands begin and end and it would for them to increase the size difference between the hands, making them easier to distinguish

The perfect watch for work. It's sturdy, comfortable, easy to read and cheap enough to replace if it gets damaged on the job. And it will. I'm a welder, not a librarian!

Nice simple watch, light works well.

It's a great, simple watch with backlighting that brightens the whole face, not a shadowy, weak beam like digitals.

Date is impossible
