It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer.

1.0 out of 5 stars Dot even think about buying it, August 24, 2008

By 

PAWEL "Hill" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Timex Ironman T5E701 Men's 100-Lap Speed + Distance Watch (Sports)

Hi,

I bought this watch on ebay brand new about three weeks ago (did not even realized it was women's watch).For the record I live in Chicago, US - so I'm sure I have plenty of satellites over my had

Ok here it goes. The manual says it takes about 5 minutes to connect watch to satellite first time or if you move from your location by hundreds of miles - well; it took me over sixty minute to connect first time. The manual say every next time you turn it on it takes about 45seconds -it takes me every time about 15 minutes when I try to connect each day.

Then when I jog this over glorified stop watch disconnects from satellite on average every 60 seconds. And if you happen to be in stopwatch/distance mode it will not beep to let you know that you are disconnected. So you have to look at this dam watch every 15seconds to see if the mileage updates.

Speaking of "dates" the time does not displays correctly ether. It has dual time zones, but one shows correct date but hour is way off and the other shows time with one hour difference but date way off.

They advertise it to be water resistant up to 100 meters - but the manual say: it will not measure distance or speed under water and not to push any buttons because it may leak. I guess thay made it water resistant so then you though it into a lake it will stay there for next generations.

So this morning after running about 3 miles and the watch showing .545 mile I took the receiver and smashed it against the wall -there goes my $155.00.

Do yourself a favor, don't by it

P.S.

I gave it one star only because the system will not let me proceed with the review if I don't pick any stars. But zero stars from me.

This review is from: Timex Ironman T5E701 Men's 100-Lap Speed + Distance Watch (Sports)

When I ordered the Timex Ironman there were only two reviews -both of which were very negative, but I ordered despite that because comparable GPS watches were much more expensive. I have had no problems with either the watch or the GPS. The only reason I did not give it five stars is that you need the instruction book to use all of the features of the system. It is not user friendly, but when instructions are followed, it works as promised.
