Review of Men's Timex Combo Brown LeatherExpedition Watch

I generally like the Timex Expedition series because they have both an alarm and a light on an analog watch.

I had an older Timex Expedition that had a rotating ring around the face.This ring was used to set the time and the alarm, and was very simple and quick to use.Just spin the ring to the alarm time, and pull out the crown to set the alarm.There was also a nice feature that would let you set an alarm for up to 1 hour from now, which was nice for setting timers for cooking, etc., without having to set the 12 hour alarm.

On this new watch, there is both an analog face and a digital display as well.I had hoped that they would be synchronized with each other.However, there is no connection between the two parts. The time must be set twice, once for analog using the crown, and once for digital using the buttons, and they do not necessarily stay in sync.I had hoped that you would use the crown to set both the analog and digital times at the same time.Also, the alarm is only settable on the digital part, using the buttons.The procedure for setting the digital alarm is hard to remember how to do, since I don't do it every day.I also miss the "under 1 hour" alarm feature from my old Timex.

Product Description
From the mountains to the sea, Timex Expedition has no boundaries. Worn by extreme outdoor adventurists like Conrad Anker, Timex Expedition belongs to the great outdoors.
