Practical, affordable, great features,
I love this watch. I’ve been re-buying it since the 80′s. I typically trash watches within a year or so but I can make these last for a good 5 years or more even with hard use. Considering that I started out paying about 10 bucks for it, that’s pretty impressive. Every one has survived my sweaty exercise sessions, sloppy dishwashing and slamming my wrist against things. The band can be torn but somehow I’ve only managed to do that on one of the four or so I’ve bought. And the band fits my little skinny wrist that NO jewelry fits, without having to alter it in any way. I use every feature on this watch, especially the countdown timer, which is a great tool for those of us who are easily distracted. If I have to remember to do something in a few minutes (from 5 to 30 minutes), whether it’s call someone back, check the oven, turn off the garden hose, switch the laundry, or whatever, I can utilize the countdown timer as a reminder tool that travels with me unlike a kitchen timer or a sticky note. The watch is small and flat, and although it has a very vinyl utilitarian look, I choose it most of the time over my prettier dress watches because it’s far more functional. This is not jewelry by any means but it’s a great cost-effective little tool, if that’s what you’re into (and I am).
UPDATE 01/15/2013: I still miss this watch. However, since May of 2011 I’ve been wearing a Timex Womens Expedition Chronograph watch and it’s taking a beating just like it should, even in the swimming pool. Plus, it lights up.

|One touch Countdown timer is the best feature,
I’ve been buying this watch for the past 20 years because I like the simple touch for the 1 to 30 minute countdown. It’s so handy for working on timed projects or as a quick reminder for many things.

|Love it!,
I absolutely love this watch! It’s the only one I’ve seen that has a timer, alarm, and other features and yet is still small and flat enough that it doesn’t look ridiculous on my wrist. For it’s price, it’s also surprisingly durable. Mine went through a load of laundry once and came out fine. I highly recommend it!
