This is overall a great watch that works great and troublefree once it is properly set to the correct time zone and time (not at all easy). The only real complaint that I have about this watch is that when the battery fails, don't plan on changing it yourself. I tried two professional jewelers to have each change the battery and re-set the watch and neither could do it (as opposed to taking my Timex to Wallmart and having an unskilled clerk drop in a new battery). In the end, I had to send it off to a specialist that I found on the internet and pay $80 to get a new battery properly installed (I had paid $120 for the watch new). If that is still the case, and if you can now buy a new one on Amazon for around $40, I would suggest throwing the watch away when the battery fails and just buy a new one with the battery already installed. If the battery lasts two years that means it cost $20 a year to have a very reliable, accurate watch. The difficulty of changing the battery properly is a MAJOR issue with this otherwise great watch. E. Howard, how about coming up with a fix so that most anyone who sells the battery can properly install it? Otherwise, it is essentially a throw away item.
