This review is from: Timex Men's T5K202 Ironman Endure Combo Shock 30-Lap Watch (Watch)

I've had this watch only a couple of weeks, but immediately discovered a couple of shortcomings, compared with my previous runners watches. I bought it because it combines an analog dial with all the same functions my earlier watches had, and because I liked its appearance, which is rather different from other sport watches. The problem is the greatly reduced size of the chronometer display - which is much too small.

The underlying problem is that I am of an age such that I use reading glasses, something I don't take running with me. I can read it well enough in bright light, but in low light I cannot read it at all. And since I usually run after work, from 5:30-6:30, both watch hands are often located directly over the chronometer display, often making it impossible to see. That would also be an issue for early morning runners.

My old watch (also an Ironman Triathelon - different model) has gotten rather beat-up, and the battery is dead, but it has a large, easily read chronometer display, and none of the issues this new watch unfortunately suffers from. It looks like I'll have get a battery for that old watch, and use this new one only when I'm not running.

I can recommend this watch only for non-running applications, or for anyone with sharp near-distance eyesight.

This review is from: Timex Men's T5K202 Ironman Endure Combo Shock 30-Lap Watch (Watch)

My old Ironman battery died and I found the price of the battery replacement to be more than 50% of this new watch, so decided to buy the new one. The old Ironman was all digital, and I prefer analog but like having all the features of a digital watch such as the chronograph, timer, dual time zone, and alarm. I also really wanted the same waterproof, shock, and durability features that all Ironman watches have, plus the original blue Indiglo back light (my old Ironman had the newer yellow, digit only illumination which I found to not be that bright at night). The Endure Combo Shock has it all, plus the digital display has the All Day Indiglo feature which uses holographic technology to make the display greenish during the day for better contrast. There was one reviewer on the Timex website who said that the display window was too small, but I find it to be just fine. Hard to beat the cheap price on Amazon ($47+) with Prime shipping, as I saw Zappos sells the same watch for the MSRP of $70. Maybe that will change since Amazon bought Zappos recently.

Although I have only had this watch for a few days, I like it a lot. A few of my favorite features:

1.The resin casing extends beyond the cover of the watch face by about 2 mm, enough to provide lots of protection against the face being scratched accidentally.

2. The hour and minute hands have luminescent pieces on them, so it is often possible to tell the time in the dark without needing to turn on the Indiglo feature.

3. When activated, the Indiglo Night Mode will turn on the light by pressing any button. If you need to use the stop watch or timer at night, it is very convenient to be able to press only one button, which will do the desired task in addition to turning on the light. It is not necessary to press two buttons to turn on the light and perform the function while using Night Mode.

4. The date can be displayed as either MM.DD or as DD.MM. This is convenient if you are used to a date format that is not the standard in the US.

5. The watch is easy and intuitive to use. With about 5 minutes reading through the manual, you should be able to remember how to do everything you need to.
