Interestingly, it seems a lot of negative comments come from people who do not know how to handle either an automatic watch especially a diver or cannot adjust the bracelet correctly. I guess that is an issue with cheaper watches, not because the watches are cheap but because a lot of the buyers do not know how to treat these watches properly.

back when I was born in 1876 timex was the only watch I would buy

Time ⌚ is a dead god Thoth 🌹🌚👍 Rest in the Good News 🌹 okay bye

Not having a screw down crown……. Deal breaker….. instant no go.

My first watch was a Timex. I got it for my seventh birthday in 1969. It had a blue dial with gold Roman numerals. I loved it.

i bought a Seiko Padi

17:21 The pin is in backwards.

Actually I suspect the trend started when Connery wore a Rolex Subby with a tux in “Goldfinger.”

My uncle told me about the service method they used back in the day. The fluid in question was the very volatile stuff used for Zippo lighters. It would have penetrated into all the tiny spaces and evaporated very well. After giving it a swish in pure solvent the process was repeated with clean fluid with a couple drops of thin oil added.

I prefer Seiko, Casio and Citizen

I wear my Doxa Professional swimming in the ocean. That’s about it. Most of my watches are 200 meters, so I wouldn’t worry. I’m not a diver but wear most of my watches in the water. I Casio Duro does just fine

Wear it in the he water all the time. Zero issues. $75 bucks

My Dad was one of the engineers who designed the mechanical Time watch movement. He introduced some of the industrial features which reduced friction and eliminated the need for jeweled bearings, and greatly simplified assembly. The ruggedness possible without jewel bearings was a major contributor to the success of that watch.

Get a Circula titanium diving watch hardened to 1200 Vickers with special coating and 500m water resistance for around 1000 Euro or a Sinn U50 or UX diving watch or EZM 3 if you need extra antimagnetic (100 mT) and temperature resistance (-45°C - 80°C). It think all of these watches can withstand a beating with a plastic hammer.

I really appreciate the fact you actually took a diver into the ocean. I think that’s a first for any diver review I’ve watched lol

Timex was designed and manufactured for the average person whom one second a day or even an hour meaning one would have to reset their watch once a day or week wasn't an issue vs the cost of a watch which only had to be in the earilest of day's, resetting once a month. Just as Mr. Ford made the auto available for the general public could afford and offered it in any color as long as one choice was black.

I remember being eight years old and telling my parents I wanted a watch for Christmas, so they let me.

I like invicta but the Grand Diver is a better model. Its like the pro diver but on steroids and water resistant to 1000 feet. I love my Grand Diver 3046 GD. It's always on my wrist. Low IQ people should stay away from owning one because they'll just end up breaking it. We who like automatics, know what we're doing when buying one.

Fabulous!!! I own four: two manual wind 2409, one automatic 2415 just like yours in this vid, and one Neptunus with 2416 movement (no date). All feature stainless steel case.

Russian products are always copies of western counterparts & it’s always rubbish 😢

Great video review. A Rolex is not how I want to spend my money but this watch does the job and looks good doing it. I just ordered one.

Any know how waterproof these really are? Is it better than 20meters?

For the same reason I no longer collect the Bazooka Joe mini comics that come in the hard-as-rock Bazooka bubble gum!

Over saturation of the brand Timex. I still have my Timex my mom bought me in the 60’s. I prefer an old funky Swiss Army watch with big numbers. I have like 3 of them. I had a beautiful gold Rolex Chronograph in the 70’s but hated people ogling it all the time.

I've got expensive watches...my most dependable watch is a little brown plastic timex watch I got for 2 bucks in a thrift store. it keeps perfect time and only needs a battery about every 5 years.

Flava Flav knows what time it is...

The same people that collect Ingersol dollar type watches are attracted to Timex. They had no jewels so when they stopped, they were probably worn out!

The reason being is they are disposable you can't fix them they are riveted together and glued myself I have an old Micky Mouse watch from 1967 that was given to me for my Birthday. I hardly ever used it's a Timex wind-up it failed about 20+ years ago I went to every watch repair I could find even called Time Canada and they wouldn't touch it then I found out how they were assessed you cannot take them apart you have to break them to get them apart... I'll never buy another Timex again

I always worn Timex watches

I love my timex. It does take a licking keeps on ticking!😊😊

When I was young Timex was all I could afford, they were very cheap and had no jewels in them and told the time approximately, put it right every day by the pips on the BBC news. I've still got the last one, which I've repaired, when you get it to bits you realise why they didn't tell the time very well. Good for the price but horrible in absolute terms. I won't be buying another.

Having ourselves drigged and the watch and electronics stolen is something horrible but still having our eyes, or kidneys, testicles removed is horrible. These are really valuable organs. No joke but don't drink or eat anything strangers offer. Sometimes its best to prepare our own juice and stuff as much as possible ehile enjoying the exotic or stuff that is unique to the place in question that is visited.

I have one. Take a great photo bit has the feel of a $10 WalMart watch.

I was given my Grandfathers Timex from 1970 (Christmas gift) from my mom ..I had it serviced. 54 years old. It still works. I have the box it came in and the warranty card

WHAT collectors??? Stupid video.

They were inexpensive watches. Much much cheaper. A nine year old could afford one and they (me) did break them. Everything about them was low cost. They filled a need.

I bought a Rolex Yacht Master few months ago, but I still equally enjoy wearing owning Casios, Seikos and even an Invictas. After watching this review, will be ordering my first Pagani soonest.

What bullshit, trying to explain how to use a dive bezel while showing a GMT bezel... straight to "don't recommend channel"...

Cheap, but they tell time... what more do you need from a watch. I guess some folks think they are buying status by spending allot on a watch.

Back in the 80 while working on my parents farm my brother and I found a Timex watch that someone had lost. The band was missing, the face was scratched, and it was caked with mud but it was still running and keeping time. That was totally impressive.

The AK-47 and SKS, while bing somewhat crudely machined, are both quire durable and reasonably accurate battle rifles. Both are still in service in many countries all over the world today. The AK-47 being in high demand for its superior power and reliability over AR15 type of rifels. Great Video!

You don't buy the brand Rolex but the Design - for 80 bucks you make a big deal!

They are made for showering. They are shower watches...

Timexes are analogous of Americans. How corporations look at Americans are cheap and disposable. Lets use the visas for foreign watches. 😂

Bought my brand new Timex from Amazon... The day date complication was faulty... I sent it back and googled and found out this was a common error. My only brand new watch I have purchased out of a hundred that was faulty...

Haha - at 2:30 you had the watch set to 4-20. Nice one.

I love my Timex Expedition indiglo. Got a Seiko Series 5 mechanical too but the clean lines of the Timex just look so good!

It has a Seiko movement, the watch is fantastic for the price it's hard to understand how they can sell it so cheap, I've had mine and worn it everyday for the last 5 years
