Poor in many ways Jul 17, 2007
By Noah Mathews As a cross country and track&field coach, I live and die by my stopwatch.
1) Very confusing with poorly written directions (I build my own PCs, so I consider myself fairly savvy with technology).
2) Watch says WR 50M, but obviously not rain resistant. Ever since I got caught in the rain at a track meet, the watch has intermittently stopped working.

Poorly designed interface for reset Aug 13, 2009
By D. Secret This stopwatch isn't optimized for a simple start/stop/reset operation. So if you want to simply record duration of an event like a rest period for sets at the gym, this is horrid. In order to reset you hold the middle button(which is difficult to hold) for about 3-4 seconds. I usually accomplish this by smashing the stopwatch against a hard object rather than punish my finger with the extremely hard to press center button. This should really be a SINGLE touch.
I'm very disappointed with this product, for that reason. It's also kinda huge.

Good value for a stopwatch Aug 25, 2009
By Ed Hopkins This Timex is one of only a few stopwatches commonly available, as best I can tell. It has proven quite durable, despite my subjecting it to extremely heavy use. I do voiceover professionally, much of my work is for TV promos, and they must all be timed accurately. This means that my stopwatch is in heavy use all day, five or more days per week. The currently unavailable Casio's that I previously used were easier to use and ergonomically superior, in that the reset function was instant, as opposed to this Timex, which requires that the reset button be depresed and held for about five seconds to actually reset the watch. Another peculiarity is that hitting the reset button a second time after holding it down to reset the timer, puts the stopwatch into "automatic" mode, which I do not understand, need or use, but which causes the device to behave in a bizarre fashion until you figure out what's happening, once again stop, then reset, the tap the reset button again to take it out of automatic mode. These two things make it annoying to use with some regularity, but it is a robust device and not terribly expensive. It also has the virtue of being one of the few stopwatches that are available at the moment. If you intend to use it in connection with audio recording, note that the device beeps upon pushing the buttons, so you will need to do as I have and get a watch shop to silence the beeps, otherwise it will interfere with recording. It would be wonderful if Timex were to modify the firmware so as to allow turning off the sounds and making the reset instantaneous. With either of those changes I'd give it 4 stars and with both, I'd give it 5.

Everything I needed and expected Jan 09, 2011
By Scott Case I have had this for about 4 months. I got it for exercise but have found a number of other uses for it since then as well, from cooking to studying. I've been happy with it. It does everything I wanted it to and I haven't found the operation of it to be troublesome or difficult. I read over the instruction sheet once to find out how it's supposed to work and what all of the features do. It's not great literature but I don't recall having trouble understanding it. It does take a couple of seconds holding the middle button to reset it as other have mentioned. That's not a big deal to me, but something to be aware of if that might be an issue for you. Numbers are large and easy to read, good contrast on the display and Indiglo feature nicely illuminates if lighting is dim. It feels well-made and sturdy. Buttons are large and easy to press. Built-in lanyard is nice. I'd buy again without hesitation. Your mileage may vary.

doesn't reset fast enough. Jan 07, 2009
By Zappo Nice font, big stopwatch, comfotable hold in hand, but the reset button for the basic stopwatch function needs to be held for a couple of seconds in order to reset...I needed that to be instant so I had to send it back.
