Women's Ironman Triathlon Essential 34mm Watch

I am a watch lover, and Timex is one of my favorite brands. I was on the fence about ordering this watch because I am a fan of traditional analog style watches. I always felt like digital watches were for kids. 🤷‍♀️ I also never liked the idea of the silicone watch bands. But, I decided to give this watch a try, and I'm so glad I did! One thing that's important to me in a watch is water resistance. I don't want to have to constantly take it off and put it on depending on what I'm doing. This watch is water resistant up to 100M and it has stood up to that claim pretty well for me. It has been soaked every day since I got it. Doing dishes, hand washing, forgetting to take it off when I get in the shower... All good. The silicone band is comfortable and easy to adjust. It holds in place really well. And I've found I like the silicone band because it dries so quickly when it gets wet. It's a nice size, not too big, not too small. I have tiny wrists and find a lot of watches to be huge. This is a bit on the larger side for me, but it is feminine looking and works well. The features of the watch are great and easy to use. The Indiglo feature is a must for me as a fan of Timex watches, lol. My favorite thing about this digital watch is that it displays the day of the week as well as the date which comes in very handy for me as I am constantly having to check the date. The instructions that come with the watch are not the greatest, but a quick Google or YouTube search for this model will have you setting up and operating this watch in a matter of minutes. If you're looking for a sturdy, reliable watch with lots of good features, this one will not disappoint.

I have had 3 IRONMAN Womens watches. I followed a video I found on You Tube to learn how to set the watch. Wish I had learned years ago. Things I did not notice or know before I purchased: I like a wider band and a replaceable band. The battery must be replaced by a professional. Product looks as shown. Mine has purple buttons. My wrist is small therefore the tip or end of the band goes all the way around the watch to the opposite side near the face of the watch and has to be secured with the band loop all the way or it will fet caught on items. So it is a bit long for my small wrist. The info says it is 7.5 inches long. I do not know my wrist measurement. For the price this has a good sporty woman's watch appearance. Since I have worn Ironman Timex watches for about 40 years, I am expecting it to last at least 8 years. The only reason I purchased a new one is the band caught on something and cut it so short that it won't stay in the loop and sticks out. I have not been able to find a watch repair person who can replace the wrist band. So it is still ticking-still working and it is over 10 years old. I can comment only on appearance and fit. Once I have used it a while I'll add more to this review. I am concerned that while setting the watch time and date, that it was already set in the 2016 year. It may sound like I am unhappy with this watch. I am happy with the price, value, look [fashion]. I just wish I coukd have predicted 7.5 inches would be too long for me. It arrived on time and with 2 other items in the same box. All in good condition. I do hope this helps someone to measure their wrist. The size of the font of the numbers is the same as my previous IRONMAN and "time" is easily read.

UPDATE: The watch band tore on the 23rd month. I re-read some reviews on here and see that this is very common. Many claim the watch lasts 12-18 months so I guess I was lucky. For the price, that's not bad. This watch was perfect. I have yet to find a suitable replacement so I'm just going to buy another Ironman watch! It was great while it lasted. Play it again, Sam. For old time's sake. ---------- ORIGINAL REVIEW: I waited 2-and-a-half months before writing a review to make sure this thing is durable. Well, for the price, I can safely say this watch is great. Sometimes, I will go a week without taking it off and it always comes in handy. Especially in a world where it takes people 30 seconds to tell you what time it is because they have to dig their phone out of their purse/wallet/monkey backpack. I use the pulse calculator quite often while at the gym to get an idea of my heart rate with different exercises. I use the timer function when I cook (can't hear the oven timer from my room upstairs) and also for certain tasks at work. I don't use the stopwatch feature as often, but I do occasionally on a run or to time how long it takes for my computer at work to boot up... The best function of this watch is that it is water-resistant. Someone wrote a review complaining about how he/she pushed a button while swimming and the watch broke. The instructions that come with the watch CLEARLY STATE that the device is water-resistant as long as you don't push any buttons, which would break the water-tight seal. I take showers with my watch on all the time. Mostly because I am too lazy to take it off, but it helps when I am running late in the morning. The only negative, I'd say is that this watch is so comfortable and convenient, that I often forget to take it off. While black matches well with most things, occasionally I'll be dressed up (say, for the symphony) and realize my sporty watch looks a little weird with my dress. Then I take it off and put it in my purse. Overall though, it's subtle enough to match most clothing. I can't say enough good things about this watch. A great deal at only $26.

This is a great watch and I've owned several but a flaw is in the circular piece that hold down the trap. After you buckle/tighten the strap is has a little piece that you can thread the tail/end through so it stays out of the way and parallel to the band but it often breaks. This latest watch I have not even worn for a full 2 months and that tiny circular piece broke off leaving the excess tail/end to be in the way and not secured down. I'm disappointed in the quality of this product. This is happening more constantly in this watch. I contacted Timex and they said the warranty does not cover the band. They would so nothing about this issue, disappointing.

Es hermoso era para un regalo a la persona le encanto lo usa para nadar

This is a nice watch with good useable funtions.Got it for my Girlfriend at work she is happy with it

I bought this watch because I was going travelling a lot in the next few years and I wanted a watch that is durable as well as having several useful functions. It is waterproof - but I've only used it in the shower/bath/washing up, nothing more as of yet. The light works well in the dark, the alarm, timer and chronograph functions are all accurate and you can't miss the alarm going off! It even looks stylish! This watch is amazing and the face is much smaller than I thought it would be. I absolutely love this watch and would totally recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Nice simple watch, easy to set date and time. Overall good value

Timex es bueno he tenido varios
