User Reviews about Timex Men's Ironman 100-Lap FLIX System Watch #T5E241

Timex has two types of Indiglo night light:

Good: Face lights up
Bad: Numbers Light Up

While both types are serviceable for viewing the time, the good type of indiglo works great as a night light, the bad type is useless for anything but seeing the time.

Unfortunately there is no way of telling which type of indiglo a watch has from the Timex specifications. I assumed that this watch would be brighter/better than my broken 30 Lap Ironman. Instead it is 10 times dimmer.

The implementation of the FLIX system is flawed in that to activate flix you need to hold down the night light button for 3 seconds. Idiotic. The flick of the wrist must be hard enough that accidentally triggering the night light is unlikely; reguiring a button press to activate a hands-free system negates any hands-free advantage. I've had 3 flix enabled Ironmans and never use the FLIX feature due to the activation requirements.

Finally the bands on my Ironman watches all break after a year or so.

I've worn these Timex watches since the release of the first Marathon, and am on my fifth or sixth timex. Because of the breaky band I would like to stop buying/using Timex, however I can not find a replacement watch with decent interval timers that has multiple weekend aware alarms. -- Dim night light

The T5E241 Ironman 100 lap Flix System watch is a very good value, easy to use watch for the runner who wants to track basic timing and interval information. Easy to read face; buttons are reasonably accessible. It is an attractive watch to wear for general use. Timex consistently puts out a reasonable product at a reasonable price; they take a licking and keep on ticking. I have previously used a Nike Triax which is no longer produced, this has proven to be a very good replacement. Since I don't swim much, I can't validate its water resistance other than it does seem to resist normal water exposure in the hot tub, rain, car washing, etc. I also use a Timex basic heart rate monitor that is many years old and it to keeps on working. -- Good Product for the Price

I lost an expensive watch last year and finally got this one for my sport activities. All of its functions work well. The large numbers are great because this is the year my eyes have started to fail me a bit and it is still easy to read. For the money, it is a great watch...... -- Great sporting watch

This watch works great, using the functions is very intuitive. Looks great, the display is well designed. -- Timex Men's Ironman 100-Lap FLIX System Watch

As a Police Officer, I'm hard on equipment. I bought this watch about 2 years ago and love it. It has taken a beating and continues to work perfectly. The FLIX technology makes reading the display in low or no light easy with just a quick shake of your wrist.

Great watch! -- Great watch for work and workouts
