Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Designed for active, outdoor lifestyles--as well as the rigors of harsh urban landscapes--the full-sized Timex T41101 Expedition analog/digital watch adds a stylish yet rugged complement to your everyday wear. It features a 24-hour chronograph with lap and split timing options, 24-hour countdown timer, alarm, and three time zones. The silver stainless steel case is toped with a silver bezel with black engraved accents that frames a black dial background with luminous Arabic numerals and large luminous hands (with seconds hand). It also offers water resistance to 50 meters (165 feet) and a grayish silver stainless steel link bracelet band.

The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

5.0 out of 5 stars All the features of a Digital with a Stylish Professional Look, July 14, 2007

This review is from: Timex Men's T41101 Expedition Metal Analog and Digital Combo Watch (Watch)

I'm an engineer. I was looking for a watch with the professional appearance of an analog face for business meetings, yet still have all features of a digital watch. I also work around tools and equipment and need a rugged watch that can take scrapes and knocks and still remain presentable.

I needed the stop watch, timer, and alarm, which this watch has.

The other features that I wanted were lit face (this one has the best in my opinion...the indiglo), along with a day & date display.

This watch has it all. And it's 1/10th the price of the other watches with these features I was looking at.

And as a bonus, it has a stylish "titanium grey" look.

The appearance of the watch is a medium grey. It is a slightly darker grey than a true titanium metal watch. It seems like a very durable electroplate finish over the stainless steel body. The numbers and hands on the face are easy to read at a glance, and have a phosphorescent (glow-in-the-dark) coating.

The band has a double snap clasp which is fast to get on and off, yet it prevents popping open accidentally (as compared to single snap clasps).

The size of the face is 1-1/2" in diameter (excluding the buttons). The watch is 7/16" thick.

And in the event that you wish to change the watch band out, the watchband can be interchanged with other common metal and leather watchbands.

Overall I am very pleased with the rugged build quality, professional appearance, and low cost.

And if the watch ever gets damaged by the tools and equipment that I work with, I would happily replace it with another, since I could buy 10 of these timex watches for the cost of the one TAG HEUER watch that I was considering.

3.0 out of 5 stars decent, but lots has of room to improve, June 15, 2009

This review is from: Timex Men's T41101 Expedition Metal Analog and Digital Combo Watch (Watch)

I bought this watch a couple weeks ago to replace a previous Timex Ironman digital that had served me well for several years.
I read lots of reviews here and elsewhere before deciding on this one.
Overall, I like the watch, but I'd like to point out several key flaws that may help others make a more informed decision.

1) This is an adult men's watch. However, the band is too short for adult men with adult wrists. I am of average build (5'11, 208 lbs) and would not say I have unusally thick wrists. The band, even on the longest adjustment, is too snug to be comfortable. I contacted Timex, and they were nice enough to send me 2 free links. They normally sell 4 links for $4, so you may or may not have to pay for them. I had a jeweler add 1 link, and now the band is perfect, at least in length. I paid $8 to have the link installed. Note that you cannot install the link yourself unless you have the tool for it. Amazon sells the tool for around $[..] if you don't want to pay someone else. I mention all this because it adds to the total cost of the watch and should be considered.

2) Also related band-related is the quality issue. The band itself appears very well-made. It's certainly not as solid or heavy as my wife's Rolex, but it looks good and has a nice secure clasp mechanism. The problem is with the finish. Contrary to what some other reviewers have posted, my band began showing signs of wear after only a few DAYS. The underside of the clasp has worn completely through to bare silver. What do I do for a living? I work on a computer. The clasp rubs slightly on my desk as I move the mouse. My previous Timex showed the same type of wear, but only after many months on constant rubbing. Needless to say, this finish is only durable if you don't actually bring it in contact with anything more abrasive than a hand towel.

3) Features (or lack thereof). The main watch is of course analog, and seems to keep decent time, so far at least. The digital timekeeping portion also seems to hold time pretty well. The timer function, on the other hand, is a complete mess. Say you set a timer, 5 minutes for example. You scroll through each digit and set the desired interval. It's a one-way "count", so if you miss your mark, you have to go around. For timers longer than 1 hour, this means clicking through 24 hours! This is annoying, since my old watch used two buttons for setting; one for "up" another for "down". Much easier. Anyway, so you get the time set and start the timer. 5 minutes elapses, the alarm sounds. You press the "set" button to stop the alarm. You press it a second time to reset it to the preselected 5 minute interval. If you bump it one more time, it goes back to 0:00! Now you have to reset the timer from scratch. I don't mean you hold down the button to set, just a regular 1/8 second tap resets it. Needless to say, this is quite stupid. I use my timer a lot, and have lost count how many times I've accidentaly bumped the timer set button and had it reset, even when it's not actively timing.

Well, those are the boggest issues.
I hope those who took the time to read this long-winded message will consider the issues before buying this watch.
If you are looking for a nice-looking watch that you can wear to meetings and such, this is a good choice.
If you are looking for a feature-rich workhorse for daily use that can take a beating, keep looking.
I am happy to answer any questions you might have. I can be contacted by email here: [e-mail]

5.0 out of 5 stars Great watch Great price, January 9, 2007

This review is from: Timex Men's T41101 Expedition Metal Analog and Digital Combo Watch (Watch)

I purchased this watch for my husband as a Christmas gift. He needed a watch with a backlight- this has the indiglo light, and he need dual time zones - this has a small digital clock in the face that you can set to a seperate time- in our case we needed Zulu time. The watch was easy to set, is not too large on his wrist and the color and style works well with casual or business clothes. (its more of a gun metal then stainless)
So far he has been very happy and if this watch performs as well as our other Timex watches have, he will have it for years.

As for the price, I also saw this watch at Target..... for $25 more, so Thank You Amazon for great products at great prices!
