I had a Timex when I went overseas in the Marines and it went thru everything the infantry put it thru. I'm sure the new shock Timex watches are even better. Just purchased the Ironman shock watch which I like and my original Ironman is still going strong!

I hate to burst everyone's bubble but Timex did reintroduce the Shock XL on its website as the UFC Shock XL and the crystal is unfortunately listed as acrylic.

Most of their more expensive watches are using crappy acrylic. My recent shock command that looks like a mini pip boy scratches easily. I just purchased this watch off Amazon for $67.99 and it has the mineral crystal glass. I like the green numbers with the black it really gives it a nice contrast. Btw, that was the cheapest brand new just wished it was solar. My Casio G9400 I really love it but stupid me decided to wear it while weed trimming the curb and chipped the mineral crystal glass. Won’t be doing that with anymore watches. I like big watches so no complaints on the size.

Great review. I might just need to grab one of these for the vibration alarm and mineral crystal. I have several Timex digitals with similar features. The only thing I don't like about the Timex user interface is needing to adjust 3 separate time zones when you sync the watch. It doesn't advance the minutes when you zero the seconds like the Casios do, so for each time zone you need to manually move the minutes forward (unless it happens to run fast but all my Timex watches lose time rather than gain).

Even though the digits are rally HUGE on this one, they were - unless in bright daylight - too hard to read for me, as a matter of fact despite the large digits this watch got one of the worst to read negative displays i have ever seen, so I decided to change the display to positive. Now I have a greenish/yellowish positive screen with much better contrast and a unique look. I also changed the strap for a 26mm wide canvas. It wears much more comfortable and the wider strap looks also a lot better, 22 mm is just too narrow for that beast.

Been wanting one of these as a go-to work and general watch. Can't hear the thing properly, even in a silent room! The search continues!

Either there was something wrong with your watch or you have a serious problem with your hearing because the alarms are LOUD and CLEAR. If there is one company you can constantly bleat about low to non-hearable sounds it is Casio and their "mice-beeps" (not all of them though). Besides this specific Timex has a vibration alarm, so even if you could not hear the beeping why wouldn't you use the (much more useful) vibration alarm?
@skycrafts5140
Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your reply. It must have been a faulty watch then, because my hearing is fine. I know what you mean about the casio alarms - I have a couple of casios. This Timex was as quiet as them, if not quieter. This isn't isolated. I've checked forums and it's a common issue with some Timex. Seems to be based around screwing the back in to correct position. Loud right up until back is closed properly then it goes quiet. As for the vibration alarm, I had thought that this can be used, thanks. But it's not really effective when you're not wearing the watch, or indeed wanting to use an audio alarm. Might see if I can listen to some more of these Expedition XLs. If I can find one with a proper alarm, I'd buy it. Thanks again.

@@skycrafts5140 I can only highly recommend the Timex "Command Shock" - it is one hell of a beast, loud alarms, vibration alarm and the backlight is the best I have ever seen on any Timex in specific and on digital watches in general. Unfortunately the grey urban camo model with positive display is not to purchase (new) anymore but the models with negative display are still around and their negative displays are a lot better with higher contrast than that of the XL.
