Anyone own a Timex Ironman???

As those of you that know I do love my g shocks and Casios ๐Ÿ˜‚.

But was thinking of going a Timex Ironman ( even though I'm no Ironman, not even a moving man ๐Ÿ˜‚).

Like the look of it and the price is right.

Might be time to pull the trigger

I have an Ironman and enjoy it. If you like G-Shocks an Ironman should be right up your alley.

Just be aware, Timex makes the buttons easy to push, so you might lose the calluses on your fingers/thumbs from the G-Shocks ๐Ÿ˜‰

Iโ€™m unfamiliar with the Aussie exchange rate, how many jars of veggimite is that so I can get an idea?

Nice. Looking forward to mine arriving Monday

Iโ€™ve got a 90โ€™s era one and just noticed the display is blank. Not sure if itโ€™s worth another battery or if itโ€™s time to let it go. But it was a solid beater for years. May not be as tough as a g-shock for impact, but quite durable and useful.

It's had a good life. I'm looking forward to getting mine ๐Ÿ‘

I work as a bricklayer and wore one for quite a few years as my daily at work. Fantastic watch! Eventually I had it so covered in concrete (I washed it after work each day but you never get everything and over years it builds up) that the buttons couldn't be pressed anymore. The watch itself was still ticking away.

That's what I'm looking for. Something that just keeps going for not a lot of coin..

I'm in a warehouse and my g shocks are great but just always wanted a Timex int collection and less than 60 Aussie dollars I'm sure it will do the job ๐Ÿ‘

I have this same one. Wore it every day for 3 years working as a butcher. I was never careful with it during my shift, and I'd just spray it off with the sanitization hose at the end of the day. Haven't had a single problem.

Speak of the devil, here it is with a new battery and everything! Not as old as I recalled (setting year starts at 2012) but also realized it was likely my third one. Enjoy yours. They can be workhorses!
