    Great review. Looks like an awesome watch. I own a Timex Expedition rugged field men's watch t49626. I love the look of it. Unfortunately, it appears to be discontinued (maybe a limited edition?). I'm glad I bought it when I did.

  • @justthisguyyouknow42
    @justthisguyyouknow42 Год назад +4

    When you consider it's a titanium case, I don't think the price is out of line at all even with a non-hacking movement. That said, I would gladly pay the extra to get a hacking version! Also, personal preference but either move the date window to 6 o'clock or make this a no-date and you've got essentially a flawless entry-level automatic titanium field watch. (Sorry, I really dislike 99% of 3 o'clock date windows, and especially so when they are placed this far inward.)

  • @christianaviles2199
    @christianaviles2199 Год назад +6

    Timex is so so close. Let's hope they continue down this path. They just need to upgrade the movement and I'm also sure the lume probably could be better too. But all they really need is a hacking movement.
    But this is nearly right on point for them.
    I think I might pick this up if it's available with discount.

    Move the date to 6

  • @igor240898433
    @igor240898433 Год назад +1

    On Monochrome Watches they've stated that this movement actually hacks. And it should, since Citizen last year also changed the 8203 with 8204 in their entry level watches like the NY series. Overall I really like this piece and as a non LE model it should be also available at an more affordable price than the MSRP.

    *9XXXX series hacking movement type or go with a sweep second hand type of high precision Quartz movement with lower price and this would be perfect for my taste. As it is I'm glad this is no longer a limited production type. Made in USA would be awesome for this model. As is very desirable luxury Timex for sure... I think initial batches will sell out fast.

    Why does Timex insist on using the absolute lowest grade miyota movement? $350 for a miyota 8215 powered Timex, no thank you. For $100 more you can get the SWC bunker, titanium, sapphire, sw200(with hacking),same 41mm size, much better lume & antireflective coating I'm sure & 10mm thin. So sorry Timex, try again.

      Regardless of competition being better value, I was a Timex fan, owning many. But the last few Timex watches I bought brand new were all horrible.
      I’ve had three MK1 models. Hands fell off, crystal was loose in the box, and Indiglo was dead. All three were direct from Timex.
      I bought a green Falcon eye, there was a huge scratch on the dial and a hair at 11 o’clock.
      I bough a recent solar model, it wasn’t working out of the box. No worries, put it on the window sill for a day. A week later…. Nothing. The watch was DOA.
      I’m done with Timex.

    It's not the wrist that has to be satisfied with the watch size, it's the brain and many people don't want such a large watch. It's a bit pricey for a watch with an 8xxx Miyota, esp. if it doesn't hack, and a crap strap.
