I needed a watch for outdoor activities and this fit the bill. Consistent with the classic Timex logo, "takes a lickin' and keeping on tickin'" this watch and band seem durable. The band is a comfortable mesh with leather accents which seems to hold up fine to sweat and the heat. I even banged it on the side of a metal grate by accident and there was no visible damage on the acrylic case "crystal". Plus the indiglo light option is a nice addition that more expensive field watches lack. I'm only giving it 4 out of 5 stars because the case is cheap plastic. There are comparable metal cases of the same model and size so if you want something other than a complete "beater" opt for one of those. They are around the same price point. But, if you can pick this up on a deep discount like I did (around $30 or less) it is well worth the cost.

This watch is great, not very expensive, Water resistant, I use it when I’m kayaking keeps time great and love the velcro band.

Timex Expedition watch is a very good value. Attractive appearance, easy to set, easy to read, affordable price point, and of course Timex brand. Like other reviewers, I haven’t bought a watch in many years and now I am done reaching for my cell phone to see what time it is. So satisfied, I bought a second Timex Expedition watch in a different color for some wardrobe variety.

Got this as a gift to my boyfriend who was needing a new watch. He love it, stylish, and easy to read with military time as well. He has a smaller wrist and usually has to punch an extra hole in watch bands but the tightest setting literally fit him perfectly and the watch face isn't too large on his wrist. Push in the dial and it lights up the clock face which is great for his night flights (He's a pilot). Only down side is he wears it on the left wrist and if he moves his wrist up too much it pushes in the dial that's lights the clock face up on accident.

Minimalist piece. Glad that found it on Amazon with reasonable price.

I really love this watch. The dial is big enough to see clearly and the Indiglo feature allows it to be seen day or night. The watch band is sturdy, yet it bends to fit your wrist with ease. It’s Timex, so I know that it’ll last a long time!

Needed an inexpensive watch for travel in dangerous places. Works great and illumination is surprisingly good.

Love this watch but the button spring is either too weak or the button plunger bends/sticks, causing the indiglo light to stay on after bending your wrist enough to depress it and it remains depressed. It’s too dim to notice during the daytime or with lights on inside. Swapped the battery and have made it a habit to periodically pull the button out a bit with my fingernail to keep this from happening. The indiglo actually stopped working on the first watch, with only a very small (1mm diameter) dim light near the bottom of the watch face when depressing the button, even with a new battery, but the watch still functions otherwise. They’re cheap enough and I like the watch style, simplicity, and price enough to have bought another since this purchase in 2019, but the new one suffers from the same issue and needed a premature battery replacement also. The date feature has also recently stopped working and won’t change. Maybe I’m too hard on them, wearing while doing mechanic work and yard work, etc. and sometimes hitting/catching it on hard parts and objects; also frequently bending my wrist enough to hit the button. I would think a field watch would be made to handle all of that, but I digress… Maybe a stiffer spring or tougher plunger/shaft would remedy this. Hope Timex sees this, but maybe it’s not cost effective enough to address this issue. Just something to keep in mind! Haven’t found another field watch I like to try out instead and still wear the newer one daily! New one still keeps time and indiglo still works, just not the date.

I loved this watch as soon as I unboxed it. Good packaging & instructions. The Timex Expedition Acadia is a good size for my 7.24" wrist. The band is made of soft silicone or rubber and feels great when wearing the watch. The case is made of a durable resin and I believe the face is mineral glass. Great visibility in the dark using Timex's Indiglo backlighting. This is my 3rd Timex Expedition watch and I'm sure I'll be adding more to the collection soon. Go buy this one you won't regret it!

So far so good with this watch. I wanted a watch that I wasn’t afraid to get dinged up while camping, fishing, and hunting. The canvas/leather strap is pretty uncomfortable, but has broken in some as I’ve worn it. I wasn’t expecting the case to be plastic, but that’s my own fault for not reading the description where it is clearly stated as being a plastic case. It’s definitely not a watch I would have purchased had I seen it in person…the plastic case and cheap leather make it look almost like a kids watch…but for the function that I need it for it’s fine. It looses a star for the cheap leather and uncomfortable wear on the strap. Every review on a timex watch that I’ve seen always mentions the ticking. It’s certainly louder than any other watch I’ve had. I’m wondering if it’s a timex thing?? I don’t mind it, but I can see how others may find it annoying. Overall, it’s a cheap $40 watch. I wasn’t expecting much and got what I thought I would.
