I am a Timex fan and my previous two were both this brand. Last one just ran out of battery and lasted more than 5 years. SO I just thought why not get a new one.

I got this one after a few researches. I will start from the parts I like then the parts I don't.

Wearing: It's very comfortable to wear. Though this item has big face and heavy body, it fits your wrist very well, even for my not that wide wrist. The strap is soft and skin friendly. It stays there like a part of you body.

Design: Gun metal is my favorite color, plus the military green and brown. They together make this watch look decent while not in high profile.

And here are some cons I think:

Needles (Hands): I don't know what was the designer thinking. There are four hands, plus that tail of fourth hand (the one used to indicate temp/tide/compass) was painted in bright white! At the moment you read the watch, it always catches you sight first. Which leads 1 or 2 seconds extra to find out the time hands. And this tail is totally useless here, why not give it some dark color such as the green same as in its head.

The seconds hand: It's supposed to jump right on scales on every second, but instead it always stops in the middle of second scales. Makes me think it's because of poor engineering or poor tuned.

Night backlight: It does not illuminate the whole dial. Center of it stays in dark. Probably because of the tide indicators. Which is not that beautiful.
