Product Description
Keep your sports training focused with this mid-sized, shock-resistant Timex Ironman Triathlon multi-function sport digital watch (model T5G421), which features a 30-lap memory and the unique hands-free Flix Indiglo activation system. It features a durable silver and lavender resin case, large buttons for easy access to timing functions, and a comfortable Velcro Fast Wrap strap. It also offers water resistance to 100 meters (330 feet), three alarms (with 5-minute backup), and three time zones. Other features include a top pusher for easy access to lap and split times, an occasion mode to set reminders for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays and appointments, and all-day white reflector display. Sport timing functions include:
100-hour chronograph with lap or split option in large digits
30-lap memory recall
2-mode countdown timer
Forward or backward setting
Built-in setting reminders
This watch 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.

pinky 
by .. A. Pittson (Reno)
This watch fits well, is easy to use, and does not cause the usual rash I get from watches, but it’s PINK. Why does the entire athletic industry assume that women want everything to be PINK?
Timex, It Takes a Licking, but Keeps on Ticking by .. B. Orlosky (Upstate NY)
I’ve always had this type of watch for running. It’s just comfortable. The FLIX design is neat as well, but not as simple as a quick flick of the wrist. You have to make sure your hand hits one of the buttons when you flick otherwise you’ll be a flicking fool.
Still, it’s easy to read and looks good. The band is comfortable as well, but sometimes the extra velcro makes it hard to cinch up. There definitely could have been a better design concept to the band itself, but that’s the only complaint.
Great watch! 
by .. Nicole B (Seattle, WA)
I have had many running watches over the years. I have spent $$$ on Polar heart rate and Nike watches and was most recently a big fan of the Timex Kids Triathlon watch because of it’s size and simple functionality. This watch is easy to use, attractive and perfectly sized. My only complaint is once the band is fastened you need to slide the plastic band down to secure the band otherwise it can become un-velcroed. A silly complaint really and would order this watch again without reservation.
Awesome by .. Andre Christou (Ojai, California)
I love this watch, it has the plastic band mixed with the nylon one which makes it really comfortable, I don’t even take it off when I go to sleep. This is my third time buying ironman watches and this one is really the most comfy of all. Also it has a lot of features (that I don’t really use now) but I can see how helpful it would be if I ever decide to use them. I definetively would buy it again.
It’s the wrist band.

The watch itself is not bad at all, but I would expect that from timex, but the band is not so hot. I see that it is looking shabby after maybe two months since I had it and not so comfy or easy to put on and take off.
