Sports reviews of Timex Ironman Triathlon 100-Lap Resin Strap Watch #T5F591Customer Review: Nice watch , Nice Price
I recently purchased the Timex Ironman 100-lap resin strap watch #T5F591 that came with a velcro strap. I got so confused trying to get what I wanted among the dozens of slight variations I got bleary eyed by the time it came to check out. I must say I got most of what i wanted and the problem wasnt getting too little; but getting more than I need. This one cost less. It has more timers and can do more laps than I will do before the battery runs out. But I must say it was no problem setting it all up. I just tossed out another Timex that only lasted a year before the battery quit- blank screen. I believe it was due to the push buttons getting stuck in and ran the battery out in a day or so; the indiglo is tough to see in some conditions. The watch I had was easy to read and this T5F591 is easier to read with slightly bigger numbers and much easier to set and the last one the T5C291 or 591 had a much smaller screen and cost 20% more. I can not figure out what goes into the valuation of these products. I have gotten Timex watches for decades (4) and they usually just keep on going I get tired of it and get a new one while the last one still works. The last one is the first time it stopped before i was ready to get rid of it. I got the atlantis model prior to Ironman and was happy with then and still have one from the 80s. I mostly enjoy the larger numbers on this one and the velcro strap is actually welcome and noted in one of the production notes on this T5F591 even though the header said resin in another spot.This was my first online watch purchase because I had concerns about the band being long enough. I have very large wrists and some bands will not fit the T5C only on the last hole and metal bracelets do not fit. I find that the velcro strap is nearly as long as the one which actually comes with the timex 'long' band resin standard. So, all ended well. If Timex made the descriptions more accurate or pointed out what made watches that seem to spec out as equal in features be double the cost. The charts seemed to be generic and not match the watch they were associated with. In person it would have been a 10minute purchase; on line it took forever trying to make sure I got what I was looking for-as a long time timex customer and knew what features I wanted
