Timex Expedition WS4 - Widescreen 4 Function Watch - Black/Graphite One Size

Watch arrived before estimated delivery date. Watch was new in the box and functioned properly. Display is able to be read at athe distance. Night glow feature is acceptable. Pleased with purchase. Long term evaluation is pending.

If you are an outdoorsman this is an ideal watch. It has weather, barometer, altitude, temperature, timer, alarm and easily viewable screen for an avid user. It can give you the last 24 hours of altitude change if you are a climber or direction from the compass. The alarm is audible and distinct enough to awaken you if needed. A useful tool for scouts or everyday use.On a negative, the temperature is derived from your skin temp and the surrounding air. If you take the watch off and lay aside it will read the air within 0.5 degrees F. I found the accuracy of time to be quite better than average. Mine was within two seconds a week. I have another Timex that does one second a week. The battery (2430, nickel size) is easily replaceable and large enough to support years of use. Enjoy the unusual watch for an enthusiast.

The watch was damaged to the watch band with several deep scratches when i received and i can't find a replacement band.

THANKS

Beautifull watch.

Nice watch, works well and looks great. banged it a few times already, no scratches, only wish characters were green instead of black and the green accents were a brighter green. I guess cant get the 100% perfect watch. But its otherwise great

For a x friend, don't know

I won't write a long review as there are others for this watch online, mostly for the wrist version.This clip on version is ideal. It is precisely 2.74 ounces. The width is 2 inches. The body length is 2.5 inches. The total length including clip is 4.5 inches. It used Cr2032 battery.I cannot imagine wearing this on a wrist unless one is Shaquille O'Neill.I enjoy that, as in the photos, the carabiner flips like a stand so that this can rest on a table. That cannot be done with the wrist models.Avid fitness walker and hiker, and I clip on my belt loop and use it daily. I do lap times and splits, and it's nice to know temperatures. It's not hard to use, and takes 10 minutes to set up and less than 30 minutes to fully understand. I find the compass, after a simply 4 minute calibration in the instructions, dead on accurate.When I workout, I like that it is down at my waist, rather than on my wrist--it's easier to use and access there. I wish the readout was changeable for direction, because if you hang it on a backpack, the reading is upside down. They should allow the user to select direction.It's readable even for so-so vision, and the Indiglo works well. The alarm is rather quiet, and it may or may not wake you up. It certainly is pleasant to hear, and the hourly chime is not offensive.Every couple of years I stumble upon a product that is so ideal, so well constructed, and so worth the price (even though this is expensive, it is quality built) that I buy a second one. Always afraid the company will either stop making them (as Timex did with the Helix line), or "improve" them in some meaningless way (e.g make it smaller, which would be harder to read and undesirable if used with a 'biner). This is one of those watershed products. I'm buying a second one.

Rispetto ai casio forse ha qualche funzione in meno, una grafica meno accattivante, ma in compenso costa 5 volte in meno! Ne ho presi due e li uso da anni in ogni condizione climatica, anche streme (escursione di più giorni in ambiente innevato con temperature al disotto dello zero! Tutto quello che serve è lì! Il superfluo serve a fare scena (tipo i grafici altitudine ecc.): un escursionista esperto riporta ogni mezz'ora/ora (dipende dal contesto) i dati del barometrosu una agendina. L'orologio potrebbe rompersi per una qualunque causa. Mai affidarsi troppo alla tecnologia. Pre quanto riguarda la bussola, funziona bene, ma non è di facile lettura. Io cmq Ho sempre preferito bussole 'classiche' a qualunque bussola elettronica. discorso diverso sono i gps ...

Beschreibung:Rechteckige Form, 50 mm breit, 17 mm dick. Display 24 x 36 mm, Glas Kunststoff, nach 1 Monat mäßigem Gebrauch keine Spuren. Gehäusematerial Kunstststoff, Lünette Edelstahl. Batteriedeckel Edelstahl 30 mm Durchmesser am Boden. WR 5 bar ist nicht wirklich outdoor-tauglich. Vier gut, nicht zu leicht gängige Drücker, ein Kronendrücker für Indiglo indirekte Display-Beleuchtung (unerreichtes Timex-Patent). Plastikarmband.Bedienung:Ohne Bedienungsanleitung wird es nicht gehen. TIMEX.COM ausdrucken, 45 Seiten auf 13 Blättern DIN A 4, doppelseitig, in leicht verständlichem Englisch.Die Punkte des Hauptmenüs sind:1. Time mode (Uhrzeit): 9 mm große digitale Anzeige der Uhrzeit. Unübertroffen klar und kontrastreich. Darunter Wochentag und Datum (D, M oder M, D). Links unten Temperatur in °C oder °F, darüber Wettersymbol. Links oben kleine analoge Uhr, Zeiger deutlich scharf digital dargestellt, werden alle 3 Minuten nachgeführt.2. Altimeter mode (Höhe): Wesentliche Höhenpunkte einer Bergtour, wie Ausgangspukt, höchster Punkt, dzt. Höhenpunkt und mehr in Meter oder feet.3. Barometer mode: Höchster und niedrigster Luftdruck der letzten 36 Stunden, derzeitiger Druck. Angabe des am Ort gemessenen Luftdrucks und Umrechnung in relativen Luftdruck auf Meereshöhe. Balkendiagramm für die letzten 36 Stunden.4. Temperature and forecast: Temperaturanzeige wie bei 1. beschrieben. Vorher die Uhr für 20 Minuten in den Schatten legen, um die Körpertemperatur zu entfernen. Wettersymbole sind nur ein ungefährer Anhalt.5. Compass mode: Der kleine Kompass links oben mag für sich sehr genau sein (berücksichtigt sogar die Deklination), ist in der Praxis aber nur ein grober Behelf. Wie übertrage ich die Richtung der 3,5 cm langen, leicht gebogenen Kante des Uhrgehäuses in das Gelände? Da ist ein guter Kompass mit Spiegel für die Windrose mit Kompassnadel und Visiereinrichtung unerlässlich.6. Chrono mode: Üblicher Chronograph mit End- und Zwischenzeitmessung auf 1/100 sec genau. Wie stoppe ich ohne Lichtschranke?7. Review mode: Ich kann die wichtigsten historischen und gespeicherten Werte revue-passieren lassen.8. Timer mode: Bis zu 100 Stunden voraus einstellbar.9. Alarm mode: Weckruf einmal in 24 Stunden zur selben Zeit jeden Tages oder nur zum Wochenende oder nur an Werktagen einstellbar. Akustisches Signal 20 sec lang, Wiederholung nach 5 Minuten. Lautstärke von Zustand der Batterie abhängig.10. Calibration mode: Anpassung der Uhr an die Umgebungsbedingungen, um genaue Messwerte zu liefern, z.B. bekannte Höhe des Ausgangspunktes vor Beginn einer Bergtour eingeben.Zusammenfassung: Ich habe mehr als 2 Wochen gebraucht, bis ich mit den vielen Funktionen der Uhr vertraut war. Sie ist ein Präzisions-Instrument und kann vermutlich mehr anbieten , als unter rauen Outdoor-Bedingungen verarbeitet werden kann. Ich bin froh, sie gekauft zu haben. Noch dazu zu einem Preis, den nur Timex und Amazon bieten kann. Ein ähnliches Schweizer Produkt mit kleinerem Display kostet das 7 - 8 - Fache. Ich schätze meine Alleskönnerin sehr und hoffe auf eine Ausgabe WS 5. A.S.

Bought this as a gift for my husband who had his eye on this watch for a while and he LOVES it! It has all the features he wanted and seems easy to set up and use after a little online browsing. Not sure about the temperature display as it may pick up body temperature also...The package arrived on time as promised and neatly packaged in a little box. Would recommend to anyone who's into old school digital watches.

Tamaño desproporcionado para las funciones que realiza. Presencia basta y poco deportiva. Demasiado "plástico". La entrega muy lenta, mas de veinte dias. El precio excesivo para as prestaciones que tiene.

Really good watch but it's really difficult to configure some of the features. I am still fighting to obtain the right weather...
