Your Timex......
So how long did your last Ironman Timex Last?
Looking for stong opnions here... Yea or nea....
Dogs are excellent judges of character, this fact goes a long way toward explaining why some people don't like being around them.
Woo
2 years before replacing a battery. and I use all 3 alarms every day. I think that shortens battery life. I still have one from the 90s but got a newer one about 5 years ago.

My Timex
My current one is 9 years old. It has a heart rate monitor, which really kills battery life, but it's been a good watch.
I bought mine 2 years ago, and so far still running just as well as my boss' $75,000 watch.
It lasts longer than that little "keeper piece" on the band does. Timex doesn't sell them separately either which is really aggravating.Originally Posted by Wise Old Owl

I've got well over 2 years on my Ironman. I use the alarm everyday to wake up and I'm also a light sleeper and thus use the indiglo a lot, too. I use the chrono and split timer for running 5X/wk and wash the sweat off it after every run and have had no problems with water. Mine has the heart rate thing but I've only used it once so I can't talk much about if it's good or bad. I also have another Timex with the electronic compass that I use when hiking. Finally, I have a silver Rolex Oyster that just sits in my dresser -- I use my $30 Timex every single day.
2 years on an expidition. had an ironman before that. don't remember how long. replaced the batteries several times, and i'm sure it would work today if i put a new battery in it and i could see through the scratches on the face. the timex bands are crap though, gotta go velcro.
don't like logging? try wiping with a pine cone.
Still wearing the same Timex Ironman watch (50 lap version) everyday that I bought in 1992. I have replaced the band with another official Timex Ironman band and have done numerous battery changes. With battery changes alone, I have probably paid for the watch 4 times over the original price. I still like it a lot.
long long time
..it lasted several years without having to change the battery, unfortunately I lost it somewhere along the way. It's one of the only watches I would consider buying if buying another watch.
True, but only if you can stand the sweaty stench. heheheheheheeee
