Timex Women's Ironman Triathalon Watch T5J661

I'm a long-time user of Timex's and was hoping that this wrist band would last longer than the typical IronMan, with it's traditional 12-month (or less) life expectancy.

Based on the photos, I was expecting the wristband to be gray.

Instead, it's tan/off-white.

Surprisingly, I've gotten unsolicited, positive comments on its appearance.

I never cared for the color- it doesn't look like what I'd expect based on the photo.

Two other issues:

You REALLY have to push HARD on the buttons to set/adjust/stop the various functions which is a bit of a hassle.

Also, the wristband has now discolored like a piece of cheap jewelry to a bluish-tinged appearance.

I've ignored this because most often it's hidden under my sleeve.

Bottom line: While this wristband should outlast other models, it's not the most attractive of the bunch.

UPDATE: Like the others, my clasp broke today... no "incident," the catch is simply gone.

Watch lasted 12 months, 2 weeks.

This is normal for Timex's. I'm wondering when they'll offer a "Timex prime" plan where you pay them $10/month and just throw your watch away every year.

Also, the asking price on this thing is nearly $60 higher than when I bought it.

That would have lowered my rating to 1 star... and I would NOT have accepted this watch for a nearly $100 asking price.

I've had this watch for 13 months, which is one month longer than the warranty. I liked the watch and actually had people comment on how it looks, which isn't why I bought it. The only issue I had with the watch while wearing it is clicking stop/start takes a lot of pressure.
The real downside to this is that the band isn't replaceable, and mine just broke. So, I've got a watch that I can no longer wear.

In short, don't buy the watch if you want this to last.

This watch is listed as a Men's watch by Amazon. It was invoiced to me as a Unisex watch by Jomashop. When it was delivered, it was labeled womens watch by timex. I can not wear a woman's watch because of the small size of the band. As for the quality of the watch, all I can say is that it has a large clear display. If you have a small wrist, this watch may be for you.
