Men's TW4B08100 Expedition Acadia Black Leather/Nylon Strap Watch

I wore Timex camer watches for much of my adult life. I prefer the analog wind-up versions, but they are not widely available at a reasonable price. I purchased this model for its large easy to read face and durable strap. The Indiglo feature is a bonus.

LOVE MY TIMEX , SOLID VALUE FOR A BASIC GUY

It’s a basic watch, time and date, nothing fancy. It looks great and is lightweight. It’s easy to tell what time it is with a quick glance and the indiglow backlighting is perfect. I’d buy it again!

I bought a CHEAP watch a few weeks ago, the hands don't glow bright enough, so i bought this. Aside from the indiglo feature, they are identical. It works well, comfortable, and the indigoo feature is nice

I like the watch. It stays on time. It's conformable on the arm. The only thing I dont like is that the back light stop working on it after a month owning it and the glass that on it scratches too easily and is of plastic.

I've worn this watch or very similar models for a long time. When the last one died, I replaced it with this model. I am on my third one, about to be 4th. First example - Indigo backlight did not work when I received the watch. Second example - the backlight did not work, because you could not press the stem in to trigger the backlight. Third example - worked fine for about 90 days, but the Indiglo backlight died today. Love the watch - nice balance of size and readable dial, plus I really like the indiglo backlight which lights up the entire dial. But - Timex has to get a handle on quality control. This is nuts. UPDATED review The most recent of these watches had the indiglo backlight fail in about 7 months. Timex has a serious quality control problem. Other than the repeated failures of the indiglo backlight, I like the watch. Rugged & durable. Watrerproof. Low key, not flashy. But they have to get a handle on quality control.

Love this watch but the button spring is either too weak or the button plunger bends/sticks, causing the indiglo light to stay on after bending your wrist enough to depress it and it remains depressed. It’s too dim to notice during the daytime or with lights on inside. Swapped the battery and have made it a habit to periodically pull the button out a bit with my fingernail to keep this from happening. The indiglo actually stopped working on the first watch, with only a very small (1mm diameter) dim light near the bottom of the watch face when depressing the button, even with a new battery, but the watch still functions otherwise. They’re cheap enough and I like the watch style, simplicity, and price enough to have bought another since this purchase in 2019, but the new one suffers from the same issue and needed a premature battery replacement also. The date feature has also recently stopped working and won’t change. Maybe I’m too hard on them, wearing while doing mechanic work and yard work, etc. and sometimes hitting/catching it on hard parts and objects; also frequently bending my wrist enough to hit the button. I would think a field watch would be made to handle all of that, but I digress… Maybe a stiffer spring or tougher plunger/shaft would remedy this. Hope Timex sees this, but maybe it’s not cost effective enough to address this issue. Just something to keep in mind! Haven’t found another field watch I like to try out instead and still wear the newer one daily! New one still keeps time and indiglo still works, just not the date.

I could see the numbers
