Awesome Watch
Great watch very good looking has great functions, still kind of confused with setting and using the alarm. But overall nice watch durable has a nice light.

Pros: Works as advertised. Smooth operation: buttons and crowns are big and easy to push, pull, and turn. Easy to set alarm. Easy time zone changes. Chronograph functions. Split time feature. Quartz accuracy. Dial flashes when alarm sounds. Looks even better than the picture.
Cons: Dial contrast is not as pronounced as in picture, which makes it a little harder to see the hands without my glasses than I anticipated, but I can manage. Alarm is too quiet for me to hear in most circumstances, but I do have a profound high-frequency hearing loss. Young people won’t be bothered by either of these issues.
I’m satisfied with the watch. It looks good and has good features.
Overall, a quality, high-tech look and function in a watch that is accurate, affordable and from a company that has a reputation for durable watches. Status hounds, look elsewhere.
Hadley Roma sells a black stainless bracelet that will fit this watch, but they also sell high-quality deployant clasps to fit the leather band, for those who don’t particularly like buckled bands.
One more thing, if you don’t read the instructions before you begin playing with the watch functions, you will think the watch is defective. The watch requires some simple to perform calibrations for the chronograph dials to function properly.

To be honest, I am not a watch person. I stopped wearing watches as an adult since it seemed in my suit-and tie world the watch always caught on my sleeve cuff all day long. Plus, in this digital age there are clocks everywhere. Recently I have purchased a couple of ultra-thin dress watches for business.
However, I seemed to have a need for a casual “sport-type” watch and this Timex Expedition fit the bill. I’m not a watch snob and the Timex name and quality is fine by me. The watch is very sturdy and keeps excellent time as one would expect with any watch. To my eye, the black on black of this model is very appealing. This is a great looking watch. In making this purchase I decided that I would try a chronograph because there have been a few occasions where I thought it would be handy to have this ability. I used it once already for that function and it was great to have the chrono dials. Plus, what the heck, they look cool. The Indiglo night light function and alarm settings are a nice plus.
All in all, a really nice looking functional watch at a great price.
One caveat however…and it has to do with my earlier comment about the sleeve cuff issue. Forget wearing this rather thick watch with a dress shirt. I even have problems with casual button up shirts with sleeves and cuff buttons. I am sitting here writing this with the buttons on my sleeve cuff unbuttoned. When buttoned first, even at the “loose” button, I cannot get the shirt over the watch. If I button the cuff after I put the watch on I can’t get the cuff over the watch to see the time! I guess this watch, or those similar in thickness, are only meant to wear with short-sleeve shirts or stretch buttonless shirts.

This watch is beautiful! The picture does not do it justice. It is easy to set up…by following the directions contained in the booklet, which is an easy read. This watch is accurate, user friendly, and appealing to the eye. I need to add that the Indiglo lights up the black face very well, making it easy to tell the time. In fact, you can see all of the dials, which is incredible. This was the one concern that I had and it kept me from buying this watch originally. I was pleasantly surprised to see how well the face was lit. This watch is a steal at this price!
Thank you Grady for your review…it helped sell me on this watch.

I was hoping…
I started out looking for a good kick-around watch. Wanted waterproof and durable, and an alarm was a nice-to-have option.

SUPER WATCH
THIS TIMEX CHRONOGRAPH WATCH IS (IN MY OPINION), ONE OF THE BEST FOR THE MONEY. I PURCHASED MY FIRST T42351 CHRONOGRAPH WATCH 18 MONTHS AGO AND IT HAS BEEN RUNNING GREAT EVER…

Date too small
Nice watch, good weight, but I was unable to see the date clearly in standard room lighting… a necessity for me.

Great Watch!
I received my Timex yesterday, and this is a great watch at a good price. It looks fantastic, very masculine, not too big, not too little.

Nice Chronograph
This is a great looking chronograph. Although it took me some time to figure out how to set the chronograph, it is quite simple once you get the hang of it.

Very nice watch, like the features
Purchased for myself Dec. 2008. I did not have any problems with any of the features. I recommend you actually READ the directions that come with the watch.

Not a real chronograph
I thought it was a real chronograph but it is not. To me, a real chronograph has three small dials registering seconds, minutes up to an hour and hours up to 12 hours.
