I'm on my third, and about to purchase my fourth. One of the things not listed on the site is that it has two timezones. This is great if you're travel a lot. Using the memo feature takes a bit of work, but it's good for important numbers, passwords, etc.
I haven't used all of the Triathalon features, but when I was running, it was easy to recall past lap times.
I'd definitely recommend this watch unless you had small wrists, or were very sensitive to the additional weight. It's not HUGE, but it's not small either.
Great Watch for Sports !!
I purchased this item to use on my swimming practice...
I have been doing some pace training and I need the countdown function and the Chrono as well...
And it works perfect... Althouhgh many might mention that just about every clock has this kind of functions nowadays... BUT...
..What I like about this watch is the memory on it :-)
It will store my practice time with the Average Time, Best Time and all Laps and Splits on it, and it stores by Day (year/month/day)!!
And with a 100 Memory for it.. I have plenty to keep up with..
The feel of the buttons is something that helps a lot when you have to do it yourself (press the buttoms and swim at the same time)...
A Countdown Timer that starts the Chrono right after it ends is perfect for some quick time tracking as well...
The ability to set the amount of Reps at the countdown and with different intervals is also a a great "trainer"....
The Watch has also a MEMO Function which I do not think I shall be using, but for some it might be quite handy, the memo with the multi function alarm.
It fits well and the Flix Technology (I really like that) works Great, with just the right movement the Indigo light comes on...
Really Cool...
If you are looking for a REAL Sports watch the this is the ONE !
You might also play with it (like I did) at the Timex Website, where they have a interactive demo of it.

Loved and a Big Fan of it now...
Classic still working
I have been using this model watch for 10 years now. I love it, and I just checked in to check that it is still available (I'm happy to see that it is). It has all the features I want. I am a runner and a scientist. It keeps precise time, up to 100 lap times, two time zones, five alarms, etc.. If you turn off the lighting (which is still available when needed) the battery will last about five years. The straps need to be replaced more often (every two-three years). If anyone finds a better watch they should let me know!
Review of Timex Watch for Interval Timing
The watch itself works fine and chimes out the intervals exactly as programmed but I found the instructions to be printed in type that so small that they were hard to read. Also the instructions would be easier to follow if they were set up in a flow chart type format.
a very good watch
i had the lighter shade version of this and it finally disintegrated after about 5 years of HEAVY usage (military mainly) would have very likely lasted longer if regular contact with oil wasnt put into the equation.
