 Timex Men's Watch T5E241 Blue Face Ironman Triathlon 100 LapDec 05, 2006
By J. Bradley Alexander
"McGyver"
When you search for a very long time to find a watch that actually is setup perfectly and then luck would have it you are video-shopping (window shoping on amazon) and see the perfect watch...
...then you order it knowing it just can not live up to your expectations.
I was wrong!!!
I have found absolutely nothing I do not like about this watch. It is easy to setup/encode/set/reset/learn. The face of the watch is quite large making it easy to read under stressful situations and when you just "have to know the time or date NOW." The "FLIX" system I have not used much (because I can hit a button, ok) but it seems very easy to use (simply hold down the "indigo light" button: upper right hand button) until the watch beeps, FLIX is then "enabled." You cut it off the same way. When it is "on" you simply turn your wrist with a fast "stopping action" (as if you were checking your watch fast) and the light will auto-on for a brief time.
The crono setting and lap settings are the easiest to navigate and figure out ever. The buttons actually have "labels" which show up next to them. It has never been easier to learn a fairly complex watch. For the runners among us this watch has 100 lap memory, can remember your best times, do a countdown to crono function, and it even tracks your "best lap" if you do it in series (like you simply start the crono, and hit the big black button on the front for each lap). Then at the "end" of the race you hit stop and can "save" your results and then know your best time.
I love it. It is a large watch but who cares as it is light. The strap is not cloth, something I really like as I would never wear a cloth strap and it has a nice TAB IN HOLE locking feature on the belt that I like as well (all rubber). I can not say enough about how pleased I am with this purchase.
Last but most important: Almost all watches I have seen put the date in the upper right hand corner. This makes most dates unreadable ESPECIALLY at night. Is that a 7 or a 1? Is it the 1st of the month or 7th? I am terrible with remembering the date and to put the DAY and DATE in the lower display location was utter and total genius. If you were the designer of this watch face I owe you a beer and will gladdly buy you one. The setup is perfect for those that have a hard time reading "normal" digital watch displays.
FIVE OUT OF FIVE EASY. I would give it higher if I could. Timex has a winner here folks and if you look someplace else you will either not get the cool FLIX system, not get the 100 lap memory, not get the easy to read day/date display or get some crappy cloth band. Take my word for it, if functionality, easy-to-use, and value are the things that get you to purchase something, this is the watch for you. (Oh, and it just so happens that blue is my fav color so win win for me.)
Thanks Timex and Amazon for providing a quality product which was SO good I had to break my rule and actually do a review, my first one.

 Love the watch, but it has it's bugsMay 12, 2009
By gherardini
I looked and looked and looked for a new watch when my last Timex saw it's last days. I decided on this one, even went to the store to put my hands on it since no one could touch amazon.com's price. Firstly I must say that I love this watch! Fr the many reasons already listed. But this is now my second one of this watch, both have ended up having problems with the buttons not operating any more. This defect is beginning to upset and frustrate me. Just out of the blue, none of the buttons work. I can't even shut off my alarm which goes off at 7:38 and 7:43 each morning. So all I can do is tell what time it is. It's going back to Timex.

Great WatchJun 26, 2007
By Jobuck
I really like the earth tone satin blue bezel color over the other model with the yellow highlights. The rubber (non velcro) band is the way to go. The wrist band hoop has a very nice "locking" feature - a small protrusion that holds it at the end of the strap. The watch has more features than I can list. Two easy to access time zones, multiple alarms, and a countdown timer are some of the noteworthy ones. It arrived in great shape. I'm extremely satisfied.

fabulous gym/workout aidFeb 12, 2009
By Macon Collyer

Bought watch to use in workouts at club and it is better than I had hoped for -- large numbers make it easy to read and functions are easy to use as well. Concerned about strap at first but it fits nicely and is comfortable if not fastened too tightly. All in all, a great bargain at the price and I'm delighted with the product -- looks great too.

Lots o' Features!Jan 27, 2009
By Michael Shropshire
"the Freaky Greek"
This is my third Ironman Flix 100 lap beauty (lost one, got a spare) and all I can say is if you like having 4 different set alarms a week to keep up with your schedule, a display that's easy to read with the day of the week and date, a great countdown timer (to keep track of the your blinds at your Thursday night poker), along with a lap counter with 100 lap memory and hands free Indiglo for nighttime running, then you have found it all in this wonderfully affordable and reliable watch.
