5.0 out of 5 stars Greatest watch of all time!, October 18, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Timex Men's Watch T66801 (Watch)

The other reviewers apparently can't read the user's manual. All the missing functionality they describe or problems with buttons is the result of not reading and understanding their users manual. It does all those things they said are missing and much much more!

I've had several different watches attempting to fulfill my extreme functionality needs including calculator, databank, etc watches. This watch beats them all with it's simple yet effective functions.

The databank is great for storing important phone numbers that you don't use often enough to remember but which are important in a bind. These slots are extra useful because the are oversized...instead of exactly enough spaces for a 10 digit phone number, they have enough for a couple phone numbers plus description.

The 5 (yes FIVE) alarms are great for the many reminders we all need during our modern busy lives. Get up, meeting at 11, meeting at 2, pick up kids, bed/story time, etc. They even allow you to pinpoint a particular date if you know you have an event coming up in the future that you will forget later.

The stop watch and count down timers both let you split and cut the functionality into multiple sections, so you can do things unheard of on other watches, like have a 15 minute countdown, followed by a 5 minute break, followed by a 10 minute countdown. With the stopwatch you can record event after event, lap upon lap, many many sub-divides of time for any need...and then it does some summarizing calculations at the end providing statistics on the events you recorded...what other watch does that?!

It includes two timezones - very handy for that popular trip you make or that friend you are always calling in another timezone.

It includes a variety of quick-views and innovations that make all this functionality run smoothly. If you can read the manual.

To top it all off, it has the Flix system for hands-free night light viewing...what more could you want.

I searched high and low through every major manufacturers web catalog, through store shelves, through anything I could get my hands on, for all these functions in one watch, and THIS IS IT. This is the ONLY watch known to man that has all of this in one neat package with simple operation via just the rigth number of buttons and innovations.

I just hope they keep making it. I like to renew my watch every few years since they tend to get a little dirty over time, and I hope that TimeX sees the unique and extraorinary value of this watch and keeps making it without trying to modernize it or fashionize it. It is the best watch just as it is.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid watch with useful features, June 17, 2005

Since I purchased mine over 14 months ago, I am happy with my Ironman. I selected this watch for the Flix feature which allows the wearer to activate the Indiglo light by a flick of the wrist (no button pushing!). This featue really works. Interestingly enough, it is "smart" enought to come on when purposefully flicked but stays off during other movements such as running or active sports.

I also bought this Ironman model for the traditional rubber wrist strap. Alot of current models have either crappy non-replaceable rubber bands or woven nylon bands. I wore the stock band until the loop for securing the loose end of the strap broke. Ironically I replaced the band with an after-market nylon band.

The watch face has some scratches on it, but I have used it rather hard during outdoor sports and construction. Otherwise, the watch stands up to some serious use.

Function and timing features are typical Timex. 100 lap memory is nice, but I never use it. I do use the timer though with its repeating options, however.

Summarily, this watch is durable and loaded with useful features especially the Flix Indigo control.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Watch for Sports Training !!, January 6, 2006

I purchased this item to use on my swimming practice...

I have been doing some pace training and I need the countdown function and the Chrono as well...
And it works perfect... Although many might mention that just about every clock has this kind of functions nowadays... BUT...
..What I like about this watch is the memory on it :-)
It will store my practice time with the Average Time, Best Time and all Laps and Splits on it, and it stores by Day (year/month/day)!!
And with a 100 Memory for it.. I have plenty to keep up with..

The feel of the buttons is something that helps a lot when you have to do it yourself (press the buttoms and swim at the same time)...

A Countdown Timer that starts the Chrono right after it ends is perfect for some quick time tracking as well...
The ability to set the amount of Reps at the countdown and with different intervals is also a a great "trainer"....

The Watch has also a MEMO Function which I do not think I shall be using, but for some it might be quite handy, the memo with the multi function alarm.

It fits well and the Flix Technology (I really like that) works Great, with just the right movement the Indigo light comes on...
Really Cool...

If you are looking for a REAL Sports watch the this is the ONE !
You might also play with it (like I did) at the Timex Website, where they have a interactive demo of it.
