In the world of gargantuan, bloated watches the Weekender is a fantastic timepiece of understated, preppy elegance. Very easy to read without any other nonsense. I get all sorts of compliments which is almost hilarious considering the price (quite a bit less if you go hunting for Timex through Amazon or Walmart). It's a great way to wear a watch and know the time while giving a serious "go-to-heck" snubbing to those obsessed with dropping so much more on a watch.
It's sized very well at 38mm. As a guy with modest wrists it's nice to get a good watch that doesn't overwhelm my forearm.
As far as I can tell the watch is very accurate, though the fact I'm frequently jumping between time zones means I'm resetting it so often it'd be difficult to detect drift.
Switching out watch bands can be done in seconds and requires no special tools. You just pull out the old band and push the new one through two brackets on the back. This makes it very easy to customize with other Timex watchbands. If you see a band you like but it's not offered out of the box with the watch-face you want, go ahead and splurge on the extra Hamilton for a fresh band.
I love this watch! Its not fussy, but still stylish. It is easy to read and the indiglo comes in handy. I work hard and can find myself doing yard work and then having to go to town I can't take the time to change clothes all the time, my style is layed back country work and play, so a fussy watch doesn't cut it for everyday. This watch gives me utility, ease of use, solid workmanship, and just enough style to say I mean what I say! lol I highly recommend this watch.
Decent watch, nothing special except for being able to easily change out the wrist straps. I think if they had different, more unique styles of the watch, this thing could be a hit but they don't advertise so sucks for them.
I love the watch, however I’ve owned it for only a few weeks and the band is already starting to look wore out. Threads are coming loose all over it. Thought it would be more durable. It’s clear that I’m going to soon have to replace it. For the price I expect better.
