Slip on this powerfully styled Timex stainless steel men’s chronograph watch (model 45951) when you’re feeling the need for speed. It features engraved tachymeter readings on the silver, coin-edged bezel, which can be used to measure time over distance, as well as a 4-hour chronograph that measures 1/20th seconds, seconds, and minutes. This stylish watch features a large, round silver watch case and cream dial, which is complemented by the three silver-outlined chronograph subdials and luminous hands (with seconds hand). It also has a date window at 4 o’clock that incorporates Timex’s Quick-Date feature with a three-position crown that makes setting the watch quick and easy. Other features include a water-resistant brown leather strap (with white contrast stitching), 4-year battery life, and water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet).
The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

Good looking, easy to handle chrono watch. Alarm works fine, but is limited to 12 h in advance. “only-hour-change time-setting” is excellent for frequent travellers between time-zones. The INDIGLOW illumination makes Timex watches superior to all other “non-digital” watches.

I bought this watch because of the way it looks. I was going to buy the Timex Expedition T47902, another Expedition, about the same price, most notably the alarm is set by the face dial. That watch would have been cool, but in a world of a billion watch styles, appearance is everything. I like digitals, but they just come off Geeky with any kind of clothing, IMO.
1. The watch isn’t white as shown in the picture. The face is ivory colored, and the hands are luminescent. No, they don’t glow as well as the old radium watches, but you won’t give you cancer either. IMO, gives the watch more character, and the dial is more legible than I expected.
2. The watch is thicker than I expected, mainly when you view it on end with one of the straps facing you. Less of a problem than I thought at first. It doesn’t look thick from the crown side, and wearing the watch, no one, including you, views it from the side, maybe an ant crawling on your wrist band. Smash him before he bites you. I like the way it looks on my wrist.
3. The battery lasts 4 years. Wow. If I get two, from playing with the Indiglo button too much, I’ll be happy.
4. For $5, paid to Timex, you can extend the warranty by 4 years, making it a 5 year warranty. Hmmm…if the watch won’t tick, glow, alarm, chronograph, etc. they will fix or replace, as long as the face isn’t broken. If you hit the face just right, you could break it, but it’s odds for survival are better than yours, you name the activity.
5. The watch is water resistant to 100M, not 165ft, Timex website.
6. The instructions, and box the watch comes in are rather Spartan, almost funny, you really don’t need either much. You don’t have worry about paying for a fancy box. The instructions is a rolled up piece of tissue paper, used for half the watches they make, and in 3 different languages. On one piece of tissue paper? Yeah, the writing is small. It’s sort of a test. It does tell you how to initialize the chronometer, and it does tell you not to push the buttons under water. It tells you nothing about how a chronometer works, so if you don’t already know, their instructions are cryptic. The Timex website is not much better. They are saving on words there too.
7. I found out through Google that the chronometer on this watch actually works, and the dial at the 2 o’clock position actually does function. It’s a stopwatch. How about that? The dial at the 6 o’clock position functions as the second hand, like what you are used to on a regular watch with a second hand. The large second hand sweep is fixed at 12 o’clock, until you press the upper button on the right. When pushed, the large sweep measures the seconds, the dial at the 10 o’clock position measure minutes elapsed up to 30 minutes, and the dial at the 2 o’clock position remains fixed. When the button is pushed again, like a stopwatch, second and minute sweeps stop to show elapsed time, and a that point the 2 o’clock dial shifts to tell you how many tenths of a second, to add to the elapsed minutes and seconds. The button at the lower left resets the chronometer.
8. The instructions said something about the lower left button also working with split timing, but I couldn’t understand how it worked. As you can tell, all this is new to me, so If someone else can help, that would be nice.
9. The alarm operates from the lower right crown/button. It works well, but probably not as convenient as a dial operated alarm, like the T47902. I don’t know for sure. I didn’t buy that watch. There are some tradeoffs here. Cool looking water resistant chronometer vs. nifty dial alarm. What can I say? The need to be macho to the max overtook me. Hooah.
The watch is fun, not a big investment, looks cool, and I’ll never have to worry about taking it off for fear of an activity breaking the watch. Damn the torpedoes. I say buy the watch if you like the way it looks.

I came across this watch while looking for a casual brown leather band watch. I orginally was looking at the Tissot, forget which model, and came across this one. This Timex looks very, very similar to the Tissot, but without the $400 price tag. I decide for the price of the Timex, there is little to lose. I have been very happy with my decision. The functions are very easy to use and the watch has some weight to it. But most of all, I love the look. I have just began collecting watches and for one of the cheapest costing watches that I have, I find myself wearing this one more than the others. I highly recommend it.

I bought the Black Face Timex Expedition watch for $62.43 that was eligible for supersaver free shipping and satisfied with the price.
I like the appearance of the watch..looks rugged and bold. The black face, ring and band is nice. The contrast is good…white against black. The Indiglo blue background light is good too, although it could be a tad brighter tho. It has a feature to keep the Indiglo light burning for three seconds after pushing the button if you desire, then turns off.
The alarm feature works well, loud enough and is accurate. Setting the time, alarm and working the chronograph is relatively easy.
My only real contention with the watch is the second hand. The main second hand shown in the images is not for actual passage of seconds, but for the chronograph. The ongoing seconds are constantly shown in the smaller face at the six o’clock position. By not having the larger second move in time with the 60 seconds, and gives the appearance of the watch being off, but in fact…it is keeping time. Sometimes I activate the chronograph to keep the minute in motion, but it turns off and resets after four hours. The chronograph ring does not turn as in other chronograph watches, but that doesn’t bother me.
The weight is solid and you know you are wearing a watch. I like that. But the face crystal is too flat and fingerprints and other smudges are easily deposited on the face, which requires constant wiping if you like a clean watch face.
It will perform well in dark astronomical sessions
I recommend the watch despite the drawbacks listed.

After years of keeping track of time using a number of timex cheapo digital watches, i started a search for a nicer analog watch. one of the benefits of digital watches is their features; lighting and alarm being among them. Its difficult finding an analog watch with those features.
One of the negatives of timex watches is their lack of identification. i have recently collected 6 timex analog watches, none of which has any markings as to model number. The model under discussion is T45951. The only ID markings on my watch is “922 PP.” Go figure.
This watch comes with an instruction sheet that was printed for a previously available model upon which this model is based. This model, I believe no longer available, is heavier with a rounded crystal, an integral metal band and identical features. The current model has a larger face and is easier to read. It would have been appropriate for Timex to print an instruction sheet specifically for the current model.
Although we are discussing the T45951, I would like to point out that there are similar models available with identical styling/features, but in two other colors. Our model has an ivory field with black markings which I find most legible and esthetically appealing. There is also a model available with a black field and white markings, and also one with a blue field and white markings with an integral stainless band.
As is the case in all similar Timex chronographs, the upper/right sub dial measures .1 of a second. I find this useless and would prefer a dial measuring 6 or 12 total elapsed hours.
The dial alarm setting is unique to Timex watches and is the best feature of the watch. It is easy to set, and very accurate. The same can be said of the Indiglo illumination system. The alarm and Indiglo are two important features that are not easily found in other watches no matter how expensive. Also, the legibility of the watch face is excellent. The watch has a setting feature that allows one to set the hours without having to scroll through minutes. This is also a help in manually advancing past 31 (or 30) when the month has less days.
I have had this watch for two months, purchased from Amazon, and it has become my everyday timepeice. The only change I have made to it Is replacing the supplied leather band. All in all the best watch for the money with superior features and very attractiving styling. Change the 1/10 th of a minute sub dial to one that counts elapsed hours and I would rate it near perfect.
