Timex Men's Expedition Premium Collection Chrono Alarm Watch #T45951 This instant


I bought this watch for my brother. I purchase the version with the white face/black complications/metal bracelet and posted a more full review there:

Timex Men's Expedition Premium Collection Chronograph Silver-Tone Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch #T42331

In short, this is a great watch. I just wanted to make a couple comments based on other reviews of the watch:

The instuctions: Yes, they are printed on very thin paper and aren't the best, but they were easily understood by us both. This watch does a lot, so expect to explore all of its features for a bit. It's much more than a "set it and forget it" watch.

The second hand: Yes, the seconds are counted in the dial at 6 o'clock, and the big "second hand" is used for the chrono. The reason for this is that you can use this hand with the Tachymeter printed on the bezel. The only reason a Tachymeter bezel would move (as mentioned in another review) is for a watch that doesn't use the "second hand" for the chrono, which means you could need to rotate the bezel to match up with where the actual second hand is when you want to start measuring time. Most watches will not show you how to use this - google "Tachymeter" for instructions on how to use it.
