I purchased one in 3/2009 from Amazon for $28 and the battery died two years later so I ordered it once again from Amazon for lower price. Although the battery is sold for $5.00 dollars, dials will not work properly so you may forget about replacing the battery. I have been purchasing one every few years. I use only digital chronograph for mountain biking, surfing, running, etc. which needs to be simple, small and digital with all needed functions and this Timex certainly offers all without any further mambo jumbo. If not all but certainly most chronographs are bulky, heavy, big, with too many colours, with the start and stop dial on the side of the watch instead of the face of the watch which makes it difficult to use especially when I am mountain biking and I want to start or stop the chronograph continuously.
