Very easy to read simple watch. This watch is a nice change of pace from all of the "modes" "gadgets" and "gimmicks" on other watches that 99% of the population never uses. Great price on an ageless classic too. The quality seems to be typical timex of my youth..... excellent! One reviewer complained about the band being small. My wrist is quite large and band fits me just fine with plenty of room for adjustment. Great job Timex!
