I love collecting watches and guitars. Unfortunately my guitar spend prohibits spending on expensive watches so enjoy my very budget watch collection 😂🎸

You lot are a bad influence 😂
I'm going to resist for now, check if it's dropped again next weekend
If you love it... then it's a no-brainer! 👌
But don't buy it just because it's cheap. I've done that before and it ends up being a waste because I never really loved the watch and it never gets worn.
I've noticed they've stopped adding all their watches to the website, so at least you don't have to worry about the rest of the country stealing it from under you.
I bought a Timex Navy XL automatic last year while it was on special and I regret it. It's the worst watch I own. It runs at +30 seconds a day and the seconds hand stops for micro seconds every minute... The self winding rotor is so noisy too... I contacted them for warranty two weeks ago and still waiting.... My advice to you is stay away from Timex

That one was quartz so accuracy wouldn't be a problem but I didn't end up getting it because I didn't like the bezel.
I have a Timex waterbury chrono which I think is a decent watch and haven't had any issues with it.
Don't think I would get one of the more expensive Timex watches as there are a lot better watches for the money.
I think yours uses the Miyota 8215, +30 would be in tolerances and the jumpy second hand is pretty common for that movement and doesn't actually affect the accuracy so I would be very surprised if they honor that warranty based on that 😬
If you are a tinkerer you can regulate the movement pretty easily and get better time out of it 😊 you might grow to enjoy it aha
