Timex Men's Easy Reader Brown Leather Watch #T20041


not just a man's watch easy to read4

I'm not a man and don't like bulky men's watches on my small wrist - but I'm getting older and cannot read the microscopic dials on most ladies watches.



The dial is big enough to read without me having to cut my arm off lay it on a table and step back 5 feet... and the Indiglo is so mild - in the middle of the night I can press the light and I can easily read the time without a harsh light assaulting my eyes or without it being so dim I have to nearly wake up all the way to read it.



For a large dial watch the wrist band is fairly narrow which is why I selected this watch. I also like having not only the date on the watch but the day as well. I love technology and had a TI digital watch iin the 1970s and have had several digital watches in my time with many features - but I appreciate looking at an analog time piece.



My less than perfect review stems from two things:



1.) To set the day (not date) you have to crank the time around a full 2 rotations (24 hours) each for each day - this is tiring but hopefully you only have to do it once.



2.) The leather wrist band is very thick. I had another Indiglo watch with a supple nearly calfskin band but the band wore out other wise I'd put it on this watch. It's like having a saddle on your wrist and it's a little stiff. For it to be comfortable I have to latch it at the last hole and wear it like a hula-hoop.More detail ...
