Amazon.com Product Description
Keep your sports training focused with the stylish Timex T5E231 Ironman Triathlon multi-function, performance sport digital watch, which features a dark gray resin top ring sitting upon a metallic silver case and top pusher for easy access to split and lap times. Sport timing features include a 100-hour chronograph with lap or split option, 100-lap memory recall, 199 lap counter, on-the-fly recall of lap or split, and interval timers settable up to 24 hours (9 timers with countdown/stop and countdown/repeat). The training log stores workouts by date, with best lap, average lap, and total segment time, and the total run format/synchro timer maintains total activity time (less time paused during workout and overall running time. Other features include two time zones, built-in setting reminders, water resistance to 100 meters, and a black resin strap.

It incorporates the Timex Flix system, which activates the Indiglo night-light with a simple flick of your wrist. To activate FLIX, put the watch into Night-Mode by pressing and holding the Indiglo night-light button 3 seconds until it beeps. With the watch in Night-Mode, a forward "flick" of the wrist with a sharp "stop" will activate the Indiglo night-light for three seconds.

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.

1 out of 5 stars Defective display   August 9, 2008
Just got this watch and its now back in the box to be driven to the post office for return. The display is defective. The middle horizontal lines for the main display and the hundreds display is missing. In other words 8's look like 0's, 3's look like backward C's etc. OK so its defective, it happens, but what causes me to write the review is I don't see the slight darkening where the horizontal lines should be. I can see in the LCD the circuit traces that make all the lines that do display but no ciruit traces for the missing horizontal lines. Clearly, I could be wrong but this doesn't seem like an instance of a wirebond breaking on my paticular watch, it seems like they printed the LCD wrong. If that's true they might have made thousands with this defect.

The watch band was too small for my wrist. I returned the item. No other problems.


4 out of 5 stars Review of Timex watch   July 19, 2008
Good easy to use features.Seems to be more intuitive friendly than past watches.Buttons seem easier to push.
I wish it was somewaht smaller as it seems to overpower my wrist.The plus side is that the display is easily visible



5 out of 5 stars Another Great Timex Product   July 17, 2008

My husband is VERY picky about the watches he uses to time his swim laps. The lap button has to be just-so, the right size in the right location. This watch fits the bill perfectly, and he can time 100 laps, splits for interval training, and everything else he wants to keep statistics on. Looks good, too!


4 out of 5 stars Nice big Display   June 30, 2008
I've owned Dozens of Digital watches over the years. This is one of the best. Pros: LARGE DISPLAY, easy to navigate, dual clocks, multiple alarms, ability to adjust settings with + or -, not just ahead.
Cons: hard to take band off, Timex started to use a tab on the end of the strap, so that the band doesn't slide around, makes it too hard to remove watch, also, the INDIGLO light up the numbers, not the whole display, I suspect to save battery power, it is hard to see in muted light.
The new FLIX feature is nice. When turned on, you just need to give a "flick of the wrst" and the indiglo lights up for 5 seconds. Handy when you can't use both hands.
With all the ALARMS that you can set (up to 5) I wish they would go up to 7, that way you can do one per day of the week.
