Nice looking watch

If I weren't a total quartz snob I'd buy that in a second!
I wonder why the Timex ignores autos for the masses.
The "high dollar" autos they sell currently do nothing for me yet their quartz collection has a LOT of great cases!

I only own one or two quartz watches. It seems like Timex came up with one design for the automatic, and made different variations of it. Unfortunately the new autos do nothing for me. But they have many great looking styles of quartz watches.

I own the yellow dial diver. Doesn't get a lot of wrist time, but I'll tell you this; It's a serious dive watch. Great watch!
Best,

Is that a...

helium release valve at the 8 o'clock position? I've only seen a few dive watches with them so far.

I notice the finish looks like it's bead blasted on the case and bracelet. If so, then that fits in with the mention in a previous thread about manufacturers of dive watches trying to reduce the shine on metal bracelets so as not to attract baracudas while using the watch. Hmmm...maybe someone successively sued a watch manufacturer after he was bitten while wearing their watch and the word spread via trade magazines so that the shiny steel dive watch bracelets will soon be history...

Damned baracudas...I LIKE a shiny metal bracelet on a watch when I'm swimming in the ocean with it!

I really like...

...the new style of the Expedition WR200; nice dial/hands, and I also think it has a well designed date window ( similar to the old Timex's ).

Technoguy: the button on the left side is for the Indiglo since this watch has a screw-down crown.
