" ...  Anyway, there were no instructions with the watch except a paper in several languages telling me to take the watch to a jeweler for a new battery and that the watch is not for use in deep water and not to press buttons on the watch when in water. ... Here are the instructions: ... Please read instructions carefully to understand how to operate your Timex watch. ... Since I was able to find instructions for this watch after a very hard search (and posted those instructions above), I will try to keep the watch.  ...  "

" ...  The real clincher though is that it got set to 24 hour military time and even though the description says it can be set to 12 or 24 hour settings, I have found no way to do it and he can't interpret what 21:00 means.  ...  "

comment
" ...  Its beautiful, and i will say it has stretched but it isn't a noticeable stretch or an "extreme" stretch (It only stretched like a few micrometers if that even matters to the technical people) Still fits my wrist, and I use it as an everyday watch, and folks from the 80's always compliment me with the watch (I was born in '92 so the look on their faces when they see me with the watch on is hilarious and cool af)  ...  "
