Amazon.com Product Description

Designed for active, outdoor lifestyles--as well as the rigors of harsh urban landscapes--the mid-sized Timex T77761 Expedition digital watch adds a stylish yet rugged complement to your everyday wear. It features a round resin watch case in black with a silver top ring and a durable nylon Fast Wrap strap (with Velcro fastener) in black. Timing features include a 100-hour chronograph with lap or split options, 99-lap counter, 24-hour countdown timer, and second time zone with date. It also offers water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).

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.

Actually, the retailer ended up not mailing me the Expedition #T77761 which they advertise in the photo, but mailed me the newer Expedition #791709. At first I was pretty annoyed and was going to return the watch but... the newer model isn't bad either. It's not as cool as the T77761 (which I've been wearing & buying replacements for over the last 10+ years), but at least it's not discontinued and has all the same basic features. I think Famous Brand Watches needs to get their act together in the advertising dept or the shipping dept, but Timex still makes great products for the price, and you don't feel too bad if you beat them up in whatever outdoor activity you choose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great everyday watch, and a must for pilots, September 19, 2006

I have taken this watch all over the world, and it is a great buy. The alternate time really came in handy when I wanted to know what time it was back home and I was half way around the world. Sure, I can just add 10 hours and subtract a day, but when you are at the end of the day and only running on 4 hours sleep it is kind of hard to figure out if now is a good time to call home. I would also use it as GMT time while I was flying though mutiple time zones. Very useful if you deal with that.

The Indiglo is nice and bright, and the numbers are large and easy to read. I used the timer many times, and being able to set my alarm to either time-1 or time-2 is quite handy. The stop watch isn't fancy, but I found it easy to use. I am also a fan of the cloth wristband. No cracking rubber, no hair pulling, an exact size, and very comfortable. You do need to wash it from time to time though.

Some of the smaller features are rather handy too. For instance, when your alram goes off it goes to the alarm display. You can quickly turn off the alarm and hit the mode button once to get back to the time display. When the timer goes off, I am brought to the timer display and I can either start again or go back to time. No need to shuffle though all the displays either way. Simple but very effective. They are nice little touches that show that they were thinking when they made this watch.

I can't vouch for diving, but I've never had moisture and after several drops and rough handeling, I still see all my display. I've scratched the display to heck, but I can still read it clearly.

The only fault I can think of is the cloth wristband which I mentioned above. Although I love it, it will get dirty after a while. But a quick spin in the wash with the rest of your clothes and you are back in business. A small price to pay for many benifits.

A very solid watch, and worth every penny.

Have had this watch for years (15+), and other than replacing the band and batteries, I've had no problems with it. Finally replaced it with the same model only because the price of a replacement band and new battery are high enough, new watch is cheap enough, and the old one was beat up enough, that it just seemed to make sense going with a new watch.
Its not overly big (some watches are the size of clocks) and its got everything I need. Day of week, date and accurate time that I can see in the dark.
