Timex Weekender Chronograph 40 mm Watch

Product Information

it was nothing compared to my old plastic-cased Timex Camper loudly ticking away the moments that make up a dull day. The Revival El Primero A3817 chronograph is named after the watch’s movement, which was the first high-frequency chronograph movement. Such is the case with many of my watches that I intend to circle back to and provide updates and pictures in the future. My intention with this review is to get information out there, but also as a kickoff to an experiment as to how this wears over time. Timex sexed-up its bland three hander by offering the watch with a variety of different colorful and patterned woven straps.

This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region). The strap is a NATO style, which goes well with the field look of the Weekender, but it is thin and feels like it will not last long. For the full Burger King “ have it your way” experience, My Timex offers a configurator to specify all of the above, case back engraving and the color of the Indiglo backlight.Forty-two is often too large, but anything less than 38 millimeters can be too small to read quickly (however, there are exceptions to both of these parameters). We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose but only if you consent to such sharing. It also features 20-millimeter lugs, but the bracelet tapers gracefully to 16 millimeters at the clasp. They’re holding up well, but neither owner has exposed their Timex to salt water, caustic chemicals or abrasive environments; and avoided dropping and bashing into things. But surprisingly till now, it has been able to keep up with my rough use with just having some minor scratch in it.

Those were just a few of the best chronographs for smaller wrists, but any one of them would make an excellent addition to a collection. Note in the prior advertisement pictures that the model I purchased is pictured with a white date wheel. It also features a date window at the 4 o’clock position, a timelessly cool Indiglo backlight, and it’s available in several colorways. While the Weekender Chronograph doesn’t have a timing bezel or slide rule, its 40-millimeter case size and short, curved lugs make it an excellent choice for smaller wrists.On most watches with a date complication the 2nd position just quick sets the date wheel, so the operation of this date complication is a little strange. The 1 has a hockey stick bend at the top, and there’s a curve at the top of the 4 – that really bugs me.

And while this piece doesn’t have an exterior bezel, it does feature a black tachymeter surrounding the white dial under the glass. Also, the case measures 13 millimeters thick, providing enough presence on the wrist without being too bulky.Named after everyone’s favorite days of the week, the Timex Weekender® is casual yet refined, simple yet fun, and just as ready for the weekend as you are. To be very honest, I got myself very astonished as the Weekender could handle all these torments very efficiently. I am a sucker for a small seconds complication and I like the simplicity and font choices on the dial. Why 1/20ths of a second is necessary on this particular chronograph I am not sure, as I would prefer an hour counter instead. Enter the Lorier Gemini; a New York-based microbrand watch with macro-level styling for smaller wrists.
