i have always been a fan of timex expedition watches because of their durability and functionality.  this watch is a watered down version of the expedition, and that suits me great!  it is water resistant with an alarm and indiglo.  awesome buy for the price.  one con, though:  the wristband is light green, the color i wanted.  it seems to get dirty fast though, and come off as dingy.  if you want this watch more for looks than function, you might want to choose something else.
