Difficult to tell the time.

The silver hands reflect and are dependent on background light. Unfortunately if the background is dark it does not reflect light onto the watch hands and the hands literally disappear making it is difficult to impossible to tell time. I love the watch, but the hands should have been white and not reflective silver. I am a little surprised that a company that has made hundreds of watch designs didn't catch this problem before production. In the photos, you can see the effect of lamp light versus the limited light reflected from my jacket. At age 72, I need all of the help I can get. This watch was a gift from a well meaning person and if I had seen the problem before purchase, another would have been chosen.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Leezer,
Thank you for sharing your honest comments with our Weekender watch.
We are sorry to hear that you are having difficulties telling time with poor lighting conditions because of the silver hands that this watch has. We understand that this design does not fit your needs, and thus the reason why a variety of designs under this collection was released. We have these watches in white dial and black hands. It also features an indiglo which illuminates the dial when activated. This can be activated by pushing the crown inwards.
We are grateful that you let us know and brought this to our attention. We will definitely look into your comments and do the necessary actions with our future watch design considerations.
If you have any questions or need help with your watch, please feel free to contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-448-4639 or email us at custserv@timex.com and we would be happy to assist you! We are available Monday-Friday 4:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. EST.
Love this watch, but wish the company stated the size of the band, not just the watch face, in the details/specs.
I would recommend this to a friend!

loved this watch, stylish, adaptable, understated. Black on black paired with everything. then the back popped off after about two weeks and i couldn't re-attach. No advice in the owners manual. Poor quality design? Defective product? let down.

Hello,
Thank you for sharing your valuable review!
It's really great to hear all of the positive feedbacks that you have with the watch as this is one of the main goals that we always strive to achieve.
However, we are truly sad and very sorry that it only lasted for 2 weeks because the case back popped off. This is definitely not the standard quality that we aim to provide, and we regret that something like this happened.
This issue is new to us, and we are grateful that you brought this to our attention. We have passed on this review to our Quality Team to have this looked into.
We would like to assist you directly. A member of our team has reached out to you through your email. We are hoping that you can get back to us the soonest.

I bought this watch for my son, 21 years old. I had bought him a Timex watch from a different company and he liked it but it kept having to get repaired about every other year. I bought him this watch as a back up and he likes. I gave 4 stars only because he wasn't crazy about the beige background. He preferred white but I was getting this watch on sale and couldn't beat the price.
I bought this watch to use during night time activities. The indiglo feature makes the watch very easy to read in the dark and the nylon band is very durable.
