Men's TW5M14500 Ironman Essential 30 Black/Lime Silicone Strap Watch

This is a solid watch for the money. I think if you are looking for a training watch that doesn't break the bank, this is a good option. I looked at a ton of options, and I know there are some even cheaper entry level options, but this Ironman was a little bit of a step up in appearance and quality. To me it's worth it to get this over something in that $20 to $30 range. The Ironman was more stylish and less bulky than a lot of those options. This watch has a nice sized face that makes it easy to see without being so large that it's too much. There are some of these entry level sports/military watches that are just enormous. I'm not a huge guy so this was a much better option. One thing I am really liking is how flexible the strap is. The material has a nice give to it making it a very comfortable watch to wear. I've had some watches in the past where the bands were just too stiff and made the watch very uncomfortable. It's easy to understand and operate. I didn't even read the manual and had everything figured out after 5 or so minutes. Unless you are really going to step up and get a GPS smart watch in the $200 and up range, this watch is a great option.

After my old Timex Ironman finally died after 21 years of reliable service (may it rest in peace after 4 replacement bands and 5 replacement batteries!!), I decided Timex deserved another sale from me! So I went surfing on the Timex website. So many Timex Ironman watches to choose from! But this one stood out for two reasons. 1) It has a nice simple design without a lot of "noise". 2) A nice large readable display. So I took the plunge! Indeed, Timex has definitely improved on their Ironman watches in the last 21 years. Most notably, the Indiglo light has greatly improved. It used to just light up the background. Now, it brightly lights up the actual digits which makes it undeniably readable without any eye strain. Another great improvement are in the set features. While the older models could only be set forward (in other words, if you went past your set point, you would need to go all the way around), this model lets you set forward and backward (so if you go too far, you can step back without going around). I don't understand one of the reviewers saying that the watch is too small. The face is quite large. The band may seem narrow in proportion to the watch face, but not excessively so. The band is 19mm wide and fits me just fine. Highly recommended!!

A very nice and comfortable watch. Display is easy to read (I have poor eyesight). The menu is simple and intuitive. Fast delivery to Israel.

I have had this watch for about three months now and wear almost every day at least part fo the day. It is my go to running and PT watch. Ironman has a reputation that this watch is so far living up to. Not a particular flashy watch, the selling points for me were Ironman's repotation and my own experiece with it being functional, durable, dependable and affordable. It is utlitarian, but that is what I like most about it. I just want it to tell time and log my run times and splits. I also like the larger display that allows me to read it without reading glasses, something I never take with me on a run. I have couched this review as "so far so good" becasue I bought a Timex weekender just a few months earlier and after only 9 months of lite and occassional wear it has already begun to malfunction and will need to be returned to be repaired or replaced before the warranty expires in December. I am hoping this is an annomoly and not an over-all trend in Timex quality. So I will update this review if problems come up before the warrently expires in this Ironman watch.

Great color. Good quality. Amazing watch

Really cool timepiece, been loving timex a lot recently, this is me coming over Casio/G-shocks. Although it is a bit smaller on the wrist it still looks very nice and I really love the gray and like green color contrast. Really easy to read the time as well.

I like how readable this watch is and how easy it is to reset the time for Daylight Savings. Timex is so durable and reliable, without having to pay for a lot of useless additions.

This is bs. Watch lasted less than a year and from then to now, the price has almost doubled!? What althea actual f?!

Very quick delivery. Great watch for timing laps in the pool.

Great!

Es un reloj sencillo en comparación con otros modelos pero tiene lo necesario. Si buscas un reloj con las funciones básicas como alarma, cronógrafo, fecha, señal horaria y hora en formato de 12 o 24 horas este es el modelo ideal. Además súmale la iluminación indiglo de Timex. Básico pero eficiente.

Finally a well though out, simple digital watch that is just the right size and easy to read in dark with Idiglo. I was looking for a watch that I can use during sports or camping, that has an alarm, large, easy to read display and clean, modern appearance without zillion useless gizmo displays. Main display tell time, including seconds, day of the week and date. Exactly what I need. Indiglo back-lights the digits not the whole display, so you don't get blinded at night. The watch is quite light. If the watch was solar and had a better band it would be the perfect digital watch.

I've had many Ironman watches over the years and like this one the best. Large clear numbers and good back-light. This one bought to replace the same model that I managed break.
