Weekender 38mm Unisex Analog Watch | INDIGLO Backlight | Adjustable Durable Nylon Fabric Slip Through Strap | 24 Hour Time

This is a very nice every day watch at a reasonable price. The dial is clean and the time is shown in 12 and 24 hour modes. It certainly resembles a field watch especially with the NATO strap which comes in different colors. I chose the blue and red strap. The indigo works well in illuminating the dial. The watch also fits nicely on my skinny wrist!

I've had this watch for more than 5 years now and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I got it as a weekend/outdoors counterpart to my Timex Easy Readers that I wore to the office for more than a decade (one for brown belts, one for black belts). During Covid and WFH, it's even more literally my daily wearer. My Weekender has for years stood up to everything I've thrown at it, worked perfectly, and gotten me several compliments. It's easy to read and has a subtle elegance. At 38mm--not too big, but not small either--the size is perfect to serve you in the outdoors and also augment a subtle style or aesthetic on a night out. I don't like to swim, much less dive. So all I look for in a watch, in terms of WR, is whether it can survive me getting caught in a summer shower, get dishwater splashed on it, or, worst case scenario, a quick splash in the pool or ocean. I haven't swam in this watch, but I've certainly done the first 2 on those list with it. The case held up just fine, no fogging or worse, and wearing a fabric strap means it won't get funky--and you can just throw it in the wash anyway. Despite not swimming in it, I do "sport" in this watch otherwise--jogging, mountain biking, softball, etc. In all those situations, the watch was fine. No signs of slowing down, no cracks or scratches. The indiglo backlight flickers, but I have hardly used that since I was a teenager anyway. The quartz movement means you'll never have to set the watch like a manual needs daily, and like an automatic or solar may require. I've never replaced the battery on my Weekender or had to reset the time because it was off. After a day of sporting, you can toss the sweaty strap in the laundry and pick out a new one based on your outfit, all in a couple seconds. My Weekender was my introduction to NATO and other single-pass fabric straps, and they're now my go-to daily watch set-up. I've never replaced the battery and haven't noticed any lost or gained time. I should mention that I don't really adhere to the mentality that you need to measure how accurate a watch is over a year or more to judge its merits. This watch doesn't have a date window, which would mean several more resets per year, but between traveling between time zones and DST, I have to reset the Weekender several times a year anyway. I wouldn't wear this watch with a dressy outfit, but for everything up to that point, it looks appropriate. I don't like flashy watches or to walk into a room and have my timepiece be the first thing people notice, so this is perfect for me. You should never pick out a watch based on what you think watch snobs will think/say, but if you're worried about it looking 'cheap,' I've only gotten compliments about the Weekender. Like many affordable product lines, there is a surprising fandom out there for this watch. At this price point, I don't think anyone would regret buying it, and its versatility means it may become that go-to watch for when none of the rest make sense. And if it's your only watch--good choice.

Goldilocks of watches. I have very small wrists so 38mm cases are my limit and it's hard to find a nice watch in that size range. The Weekender is perfect for me but maybe not everyone. It is loud and even noticeably louder than my easy reader and expedition which have the same movement. This isn't an issue because I love hearing the ticking. The thinner profile and comfortable strap make this a very laid back wearing watch. I bought another on clearance.

Received my new blue-banded Weekender today, and I'm really happy so far with this watch - it has so many features that I have been searching for for so long, and only one that detracts. I really like the noise that other reviewers comment about, it's one of my favorite aspects of any watch or clock. It's really not that loud, to me, I have to hold it up to within a few inches of my ear to hear it. (I'm 38 with no hearing problems :) ) I really like the size of the numerals, and the slant of the watch face all around the edge, making the tick-marks much easier to pick out individually. And the length of the hands, including the second hand, are all the way I would choose if I were custom-designing the watch for myself. The contrast of the hands, including the red second hand, all go nicely against the somewhat "egg-antiqued" coloring of the face, and overall this watch is very easy to read quickly. The only drawback, and keeping me from giving it 5 stars, is the second line of numbers on the inside for military time - as if those of us who actually use military time aren't capable of adding 12 to each number for P.M. times. Or maybe mathematics really has gotten that bad in this country, but I digress... Also, the second hand does not always line up with each tick mark - many of them do, and many of them do not. Since I'm kind of fanatical about such things, I wish they would, and it bugs me, but for $30 I guess I'm willing to put up with it - I did buy the watch, after all. Also, the band is quite comfortable on my wrist, fits perfectly (I have small wrists), and the watch itself isn't Flav-o-Flav proportions and looks right on my arm. This watch is very much heavier than my other wristwatches, but for some reason it doesn't bother me at all - it just feels 'sturdy' I suppose. Oh, and the Indiglo works nicely and is very readable at night. (Or in the bathroom with the lights out where I just tested it.) Finally, I have my hopes up that this Timex keeps good time - better time than some of my other Timex's; if it doesn't it is the last one I'll ever buy. I have a Timex Expedition analog that gained 3 seconds since yesterday, and minutes per week, another Timex expedition analog that gained 1 second since yesterday (I'm ok with that - it's the first one that keeps horrible time), and my latest Timex Expedition DIGITAL Unisex T49660 that keeps the worst time of any watch I've ever owned - it gained 5 seconds since yesterday, and is off by several minutes every week. This watch is brand-new! But this Weekender has so many features, and several good reviews, that I'm willing to give one final chance. It looks really sweet, and I like it a lot so far, so I'm hoping for the best. Will edit this review in future if it doesn't work.

Love the watch for the price. If you want an affordable and reliable watch this is the one.

I bought this as a gift two years ago. It is a simple, yet a high quality and reliable watch. Perfect for both casual and more formal occasions. It isn’t too big, and it is very comfortable. It’s also very easy to read and has illumination. After two years the time is very accurate. I recommend this watch.

What a beautiful piece, so simple so clear. If you want something simple for daily wear and you don't want to spend a lot and you don't want to worry about it getting lost either, might as well go for one of these. They're easily replaceable and really well made overall.

There was a problem with this watch — but spoiler alert — I was the problem, not the watch. I bought two Weekenders, and both kept losing 5–10 minutes every couple of weeks. I was frustrated because they’re such attractive, simple watches with a perfectly sized 38 mm bezel. Eventually, I gave up and tried a cheaper knock-off. When the same thing happened with the knock-off, I realized it had to be user error. After a little troubleshooting, I figured it out: I wasn’t tightening the strap enough. When the watch slid around to the side of my wrist, the crown would get nudged and partially disengage, stopping and restarting the movement — which caused the time loss. The fix was simple: wear the strap a bit tighter so the watch doesn’t swivel. If you're having the same issue, try snugging it up. These really are marvelous watches. I was relieved to discover it was user error, and I’ve had no problems since. As a bonus, the slightly snugger fit actually makes the watch easier to read anyway.

Sport y estilos. Era para regalo, ha encantado

Indiglo feature is superb and helpful in dark. Good quality. The watch hands shown in the product images are white but in real they are silver but it looks nice, matches the outer case. Straps are also good. Some reviews say that they got extra straps but I did not. 38 mm field watches are not easy to find at this price.

es muy feo

I got this watch with a black strap and ordered 3 extra nylon straps along with it (blue, green and brown). This watch is so versatile that this goes well with almost every outfit, especially with the extra belts. You can use it with casual outfits, with sporty outfits, with classy outfits and also with suits. Pretty satisfied.

Is was a gift for my son and he love it... Good quality and apportable... Thanks seller
