Summary: Excellent
Comment: I ordered this watch on August 5th. It is now August 7th and I received it in the mail today, so needless to say the shipping was really fast and I was surprised when it came in today. This is a great watch. It looks good, it's easy to read, easy to set and the Indiglo light is great. Simple, no frills which is just what I wanted. I don't need a date function, because I always know the date anyway.
My only criticism is the band. It's a bit short in my opinion; I have thin wrists as it is and I'm on the third setting from the last. But it fits and still looks good where it's set. If you have large wrists it might be a problem, but the watch would definitely be worth it even if you have to buy a larger band. Love this watch.
5/5 stars.

Summary: Easy to read, a little thick, band too short
Comment: The title of my review says it all. The watch is easy to read. The Indiglo glows when you push the stem. The watch is thick like most cheap watches these days. The cushioned band is very short for a man's wrist. I found a 18mm "long" h2o resistant band at Walmart for around $9 with free installation. Now I wait to see if the Speidel Express Walmart watch band, made with genuine leather, causes a rash. The Timex watch comes with a stainless steel back.

Summary: Plain, intensely practical . . .
Comment: The Easy Reader was my step-mother's choice when her eyesight began to dim. After her passing, while going through her estate, my wife discovered the old watch, still ticking faithfully. A former nurse, she has always worn practical watches, and this one suited her well. She may wear a more attractive piece of jewelry when we go out, but still wears the Timex at night, although she has to be careful not to get it wet - it's not highly water-resistant.
A discount store clerk, endeavoring to change the battery, destroyed the original watch, but the store replaced it, saving us even the cost of a battery. The first watch ran flawlessly for some 15 years, and this one is now approaching it's sixth anniversary without a hiccup.
She likes the plain case, the large, easily readable face, and the Indiglo backlighting that not only lets her see the time in the bleary hours before dawn, but that it is large and bright enough to light her way to the bathroom without turning on a light and waking me. I guess I should appreciate that feature too. The band is handsome, if cheap, but will last a year or so, and can be replaced with a bit better product when needed.
If you want a reliable second fuss-free watch for telling time, and not necessarily to make a fashion statement, this is your choice. Personally, I rather like the look and may have to buy my own. JK won't let be borrow hers . . .

Summary: Dependable Timex
Comment: I bought this watch for my mother for her 99th birthday to replace one with a broken band. She loves it because it is so easy to read. I have always been pleased with Timex watches.
