Easy to read face, very appealing. Getting used to the chrono especially since the big seconds hand only works for the chrono and the smaller seconds face is counting the seconds on the watch. The strap looks nice but the strap is already starting to go bad from wearing the watch; dont do anything crazy, work in a office. It shouldnt be this bad from just wearing it so clearly after 6 months of general wear, this strap will need to be replaced.
Overall, pretty pleased with the watch, purchased while it was on sale.

Weekender Three-Hand All Sizes
Timex Corporation
I'm no collector, but this is one beautiful watch. All functions work perfectly. Easy to set time and date, don't know why some think it's complicated. Pull out pin all the way and set day date by turning until hour hand is 720 degrees backwards or forwards, as needed. Say I'm at 8 AM on the 12th day of the month, but I need 10 AM on the 13th. Turn 360 degrees, I am now on 8pm and still the 12th. Turn another 360 degrees, I am now on 8AM on the 13th. I now have the correct date, finally I turn until I'm at 10 AM. I think those saying they can't set it are making the mistake of trying to set the time first. Set date first, then time. I'm no snob, so I don't mind at all that the minute hand isn't perfectly aligned with the dot. Unless you are a serious collector, or you have obssessive compulsive disorder, this isn't a problem. It's only about 1/4 off the dot, and undetectable to me at a glance. Despite this, the watch is extremely good at keeping time. I compared it with my phone's clock, and the watch is dead-on precise. All of that aside, this is a damn sexy watch. Casual enough for everyday, and can easily be a dress watch if you match the strap to your belt and shoes. 10/10 would recommend at the price I paid of $40. Don't pay more than $50 for it, it can be found at a better price If you look. I'm eager to expand to other Weekender variations, and I will be ordering a navy nylon strap. The leather that came with this is thin as others have stated, yet it is very comfortable and sturdy.(Read further for comparison to some expensive watches) I own a $200+ swiss Wenger chronograph, and a Fossil dress watch handed down to me that I assume was very pricey, yet I like this Timex most. I've been wearing a Garmin Fenix 3 Hr for about a year 24/7, but I was feeling very restricted. It cost me about $600, so I felt like it would be frivolous to wear anything else. But, I was aching for a real, analogue timepiece. Since my Garmin had sapphire glass and is water resistant to 100 meters, I wear it through hell and back. But, I realized I don't need to know my heart rate and caloric output every second of every day. I will wear it to the gym or whenever I anticipate rough activity, and allow myself the freedom to mix up my style.

Regarding my opinion of this watch - it is a stylish tool which I find very useful for timing various aspects of daily life including my walks. And of course the Indiglo is awesome. I had been missing this feature on an analog watch since the mid 90s. The time is easy to read due to the Arabic numerals, and the chronograph has big and clearly marked subdials. Plus unlike most other Timex analog watches there is no loud tick, because the running seconds hand is actually on a small subdial, not a large hand. Oh and I also love the green dial; it seems to suit my brown skin tone better than the blue one I used to own, and it seems to be more available and normally cheaper.
The issues I have with this watch include the lack of a *quick-set* date, a thick non-steel (chromed brass) case, a 30-minute stopwatch (instead of 60), and also the fact the chrono seconds don’t exactly hit the markings on the dial. Okay, so the last point is a bit picky but if you have OCD it may bother you a bit.
Yes there is a date function but it’s not the quick-set style. To set the date is a little tedious as you have to move the hour hand a full 24 hours to advance the current date while in the crown’s 2nd position. Just to note - for setting the time I prefer to set the hour when the crown is in the 2nd position, and I set the minutes in the 3rd crown position... it is slower to set the hour in the last position.
Nonetheless this watch is a bargain if you can get it for under $60.

PROS:
Cronografo totalmente Funcional, la manecilla del los segundos del cronografo es la principal del reloj (la grande).
Los minutos de cronografo cambian cada minuto de golpe, por lo que puedes leerlo más fácil y con mayor precisión.
Cuánta con iluminación Indiglo que funciona excelente
Los pulsadores del cronografo se sienten bastante bien.
La correa Nato es de piel y se ve de buena calidad.
CONTRAS:
La caja no es de acero inoxidable, debe ser latón o algún otro material, por lo que su durabilidad se verá reducida.
La correa es demasiado delgada, yo calculo 1mm aprox.
El reloj me parece un poco grueso
En conclusión, creo que es el mejor cronografo que puedes conseguir por el precio 900 mxn, si lo que buscas es un cronografo Funcional, este es una excelente opción, algo que muchos otros cronografo no cumplen.
Lo recomiendo ampliamente.
