Bought this watch for my husband.  He has several very expensive watches that I noticed he seldom wears.  So I asked him why.  He said he wasn't comfortable traveling in expensive jewelry.  So we got to talking about watches and our favorites ones from our "early years"(we're both in our 50's).  We were both surprised to find out both of our favorite watches were Timex's.

He is very happy with his new Timex.  He wear it everywhere!  We both laugh about the old Timex slogan: "It takes a licking and keeps on ticking."  Or as children, "What time is it when an elephant sits on your Timex? It's time to get a new watch!"

If you have never owned a Timex watch, you should try one.  They are a excellent example of good ole american ingenuity.  They are very reasonably priced, great looking, and very high quality.  This is from a couple who have ran theirs through the washing machine a few times and they came out ticking!
Buy one and ENJOY!
