This watch is a GREAT value for the money. I was wearing my expensive Polar heart rate monitor watch way too much, when I often just needed a digital readout and basic timing features. This Timex fits the bill perfectly and was a great deal on Amazon. It is fairly small face for a sports watch, but it's still large enough to read and use easily. The instructions for setting the watch, etc.. are ok, and it was easy to set once I figured out the somewhat arcane style of the written instructions! Overall a great product at a good price.
