Timex Mens Intelligent Quartz Tide Temp Compass 45mm Watch

Amazing watch, lots of features. Looks stunning and catches a lot of eyes. Everything works but the compass can be finicky. If you surrounded by lots of electronics with high voltage or inside a lot of thick metal (Navy Ships for example) it throws it off but once you leave those areas it works again. Honestly if you really need to use a compass you won't be anywhere near interfering objects. But its a great watch, keeps time perfectly. I've had it a week and it hasn't even differed by a minute so its accurate Read more

A rugged and modern watch, perfect for those who value both style and functionality. Its sporty design stands out, and features like compass, tide, and temperature make it ideal for outdoor adventures. Comfortable, accurate, and backed by Timex’s trusted quality. Read more

Timex's quality is well known, combined with a beautiful, comfortable and eye-catching design, but without being too strident, which makes you want to look at it all day long. My only complaint is that the Timex box is very flimsy and arrived badly damaged, although the product arrived in perfect condition. Read more

I must have gotten a defective one. The time hands are misaligned. The watch stops and then starts again for no reason. The compass needs to be calibrated every single time. It will point to north once, then the next time it points randomly. Its a shame because its a great looking watch. But a watch that doesn't tell time, has a compass that points me in the wrong direction, well it kinda defeats the point. Timex is usually very good quality, so its a disappointment. Read more

Good watch if you dont want a "connected" watch, but for the outdoors. A busy dial, but once you know how to set it up and use it, it is very functional. Do not buy if you dont need the tide or temp. Dale is a little small for my old eyes, but this is my daily watch. Read more

Right off the bat you need to know you may not get a new (as in never sold or worn) watch. This model from the Timex T2N collection has been out of production for several years and apparently Timex in the Netherlands has a number of the watches available. This was the second watch I bought from Amazon. The first one shipped from the UK proved to have a faulty compass motor. It was returned to the UK (on Amazon’s dime, of course.) The second watch—the one this review covers-- came from Amazon USA and has been a delight to own in spite of it, too, being very lightly used. First, it was missing the plastic guard under the crown which prevents the watch from running and wearing down the battery. Second, the strap shows signs of being used. Lastly, the box was not original to the watch. However, unlike my first purchase, this one came with tags and instructions and aside from the strap showing slight use, looks brand new. It was also $1.50 cheaper and I note Amazon has reduced the price again by half a buck from what I paid for mine. At under $80 this watch is a STEAL! Just look at the prices here for the same watch but with a different colored dial and strap. If this type of watch appeals to you with its many complications--in the watch world, the term “complication” refers to any function that does something other than basic timekeeping—this is one you should consider. While on the large side, it is comfortable to wear. The leather watch strap is well made and very durable but if you want to change it, Aliexpress is the place to go with prices 1/3 to 1/2 the price of the identical item on eBay. NOTE: my intent is not to be a shill for Aliexpress who clearly want to be known as the Amazon of Asia----they are not---but if you are willing to risk $10 for an item that is $30 on eBay, consider them. I also recommend spending $5.00 for Amazon's buyer protection plan which gives you a total of four years coverage. Over the years I've filed several claims with Allstate (who administers Amazon's plan) and have zero complaints. I’m a big fan of all things Timex and this one is one of the nicest ones I own. 5 ***** for sure. Read more

The star rating has less to do with the watch itself and more to do with the condition in which it arrived. It was immediately obvious that it had been opened before, as half of the instructional paperwork was missing. The warranty information was in place, but the watch adjustment and calibration info sheet was entirely absent. The watch was also running, lacking the pull tab usually needing removal for it to work. It's like being sold a new car at new car prices, only to find 2000 miles on the odometer and cigarette butts in the ashtray. The watch itself was fine. Keeps time accurately, as you'd expect from a quartz movement. The temperature function seems decently accurate, with the caveat that while wearing it you'll be reading your body surface temperature rather than the local air temperature. The compass function is adequate enough for dead reckoning and general directions but seems very sensitive to interference from other electronics. The tide tracking isn't very useful to me hundreds of miles from the beach but I imagine that it's about as accurate as the timekeeping itself. An interesting feature if not exactly useful to me right now. Long story short, it's a good watch but know that you are risking getting used or perhaps a store display model rather than a brand spanking new watch. But you are paying new watch prices. Read more

The media could not be loaded. Always been a very solid watch. If you’re a bit rough and work hard with your hands it’s a great watch to have. Can take a beating but glass face will scratch. The rubber band is comfortable and the tide/temp and timing stays accurate. Read more
