Had this watch right at a year, first time I wore it to the pool with my daughter and now it’s full of condensation! We were in the kids pool for 20 minutes at no more than a foot deep and I could see water in it already! Not happy at all.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hi!
Thank you for your time in leaving us with your feedback. Your watch is water resistant to a 100 m which means it is suitable for recreational surfing, swimming, snorkeling, sailing and water sports but not for diving. We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing a condensation around it. We’d like to know more about the issue so our Quality Analyst can check why it happened.
Our watches go through what we call a “Leak Test” which is a standard procedure to test the water resistance which also ensures that the back casing is tightly sealed.
We have sent you an email to help you resolve this issue with your watch.
If you need further assistance, you may reach out to our customer service team by email at custserv@timex.com. Or you can also call us at 1-800-448-4639. We are available Monday – Friday 3:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. CST. We look forward to hearing from you!

He likes his sharp watch and it is holding up well. Good choice
Previous model I had of this watch lasted 5+ years with minimal upkeep—speaks for itself!
I would recommend this to a friend!

bad button placement

I like most things about this watch... except for one biggie. Due to a surgical scar, I wear my watches upside down/on the inside of my wrist. doing so with this watch will change the time zone every time I put my hand down on a flat surface.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The digital I replaced with this one had round buttons with sharp edges. It was not good for the pool at all. I really like the big plastic buttons with round edges on this one. I also like the size of the digits on this one and the programming is pretty intuitive.
My son loved the new Ironman watch I bought him. He loves all of the timing features -- laps, stop watch, alarm, etc. He said he liked the new color (his former Ironman watch was black with neon green).
Use the watch for swimming. In Chrono mode the numbers are easy to read through my goggles. Because of the slim design the watch isn’t noticeable when i swim.
