I had a similar style of this watch that finally wore out.  I got this to replace it.  I had it for all of 2 weeks when I noticed that it seemed to be running slow.  At first, I thought I did not set it correctly, but then I noticed it was loosing more and more time and that it was the watch.  When I tried to return it, the seller - TimeOutlet - advised me that I had just missed their 21 day return policy and that for a mere $16.99 I could send it in and they would look at it.  Phooey!  It is the first and only Timex that I have "owned" that didn't even come close to living up to the "Takes a lick'en and keeps on tick'en" moto.  Also, shame on TimeOutlet.
