This Timex men's 1440 Sport digital watch integrates technological innovations with contemporary details. Accompanying the tenacious buckle clasp is the durable resin band, which is attractively detailed with two alternating shades of gray. The stainless steel case is subtly enhanced by a red-tone rim, and the matte-gray dial face is prominently embellished with easy-to-read numerals. For additional time-keeping efficiency, the watch also includes a handy day-date-and-month calendar, a 24-hour chronograph, and a 24-hour countdown timer. Other features include a daily alarm, an Indiglo night light, and a dual time-zone tracker. Powered by digital-quartz movement, this forward-thinking and iconic timepiece is a must-have for fashion-savvy sports enthusiasts. This watch, which is water resistant up to 165 feet, is backed by a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

Many functions:
- two different time screens
- alarm
- back light
- timer
- stop watch
- shows the date
It has a metal buckle for the plastic wrist band.
only con is that it can be a bit bulky, but it's such a minor "con". |

Two features that are not obvious in the Amazon description:
1) 24 hour time display is an option
2) it accepts a 16mm (5/8") band |
Works as anticipated

| This watch does exactly what you would expect, and for a good price. It tells time, has stopwatch, alarm, and countdown timer functions, and uses Timex's Indiglo so you can see the watch face in the dark. You have to pay more if you want lap timer function, so multisport atheletes should look beyond this product, but for casual wear or for training a single sport at a time, it works fine. The only thing I do not like about it is that you cannot make it change modes silently. Every time you push a button (except to make the watch face light up), the watch beeps. |
Reliable watch, great for the price

I bought this Timex watch on Amazon after seeing it in stores for more. I accidentally washed and dried it about a month ago and it still runs great. I don't see why someone would need to buy a more expensive watch if they're happy with how this one looks.
Only real negative is it could look a little better but the pictures are pretty accurate.

| I am a runner and swimmer who bought this watch to replace a worn out Timex Ironman. I agree with the reviewer who stated that it does not have a lap timer, but it does have an interesting feature that enables you to "pause" the watch when you finish a lap, hold that lap time indefinitely until you have a chance to look at it, and then resume timing without losing any seconds or minutes. I disagree with the reviewer who said the watch is hard to read. I too wear reading glasses (1.75 to 2.00) but I find the time, the date, and the seconds very easy to see. (Easier than my old Ironman. Much easier.) I despise the fact that it beeps every time you change the mode but, heck, you shouldn't be fussing with the mode in a quiet theatre or during church anyway. I am not enamored with the "resin" (read: plastic/rubber compound) band, but I am getting used to it. It's actually a very comfortable watch band, once you get accustomed to it. Glad Timex put a metal buckle on the product. For [...] bucks it's indestructible! And with the alarm, I'll never to late to a meeting with the Boss again. |
You get what you pay for - so for the price, it's GREAT

It is obvious that you won't be stopping traffic or getting robbed for this timepiece - but that's a good thing, right? This Waterproof watch from Timex goes for under 20 bucks. It's perfect for kicking around & it has a lot of useful functions. So far it seems pretty durable. You can even switch out the wristband if you'd like (so it's not all one fused together piece). Actually, the existing black band that it comes with is comfortable already, so it's not necessary to change it - it's just nice to have the option. In the dark, you get a green glowing backlit face (at the push of a button) which has already proven to be a convenient feature. The light stays on long enough for you to actually see the time, date, etc. There is a stopwatch function & you can program different time-zones - in a separate second screen. Without touching ANY buttons, it shows the date & time numerically, as well as the day in letters (example: Mon, Tues, Wed, etc). It has a big, readable font that's easy on the eyes. The most impressive thing is the waterproofing. I've had other inexpensive watches & they sometimes get moisture inside (condensation). Living in South Florida during the summer, our temperatures reach into the 100's with 99% humidity. Even with a rapid temperature change & being completely submerged in water (a dive into the pool or a quick, cool shower) this watch has proven to be sealed up pretty tight. So, if you're looking for something to keep good time & you like the looks of this watch, go for it! It comes in a box, so it'd make a nice "under 20 dollar" gift too.

| Great watch, but its controls are a little confusing and the watch is somewhat big. Takes lots of splits and is water resistant, so it's great for outdoorsy people and runners. Great value, I'd reccomend it. |
