Timex Men’s M79 Automatic 40mm Watch

Beautiful Retro Inspired Automatic watch.
First I’d like to start by addressing one of the other reviews. This is an automatic watch so it is wound by motion but it also can be hand wound via the crown. The myota movement (citizen) is rated for about 40 hours fully wound so if used properly and worn daily (and if set correctly) it should run throughout the night and still be the correct time and date when you are ready to put on in the morning. This watch band style is one that isn’t used very much any more and requires a screwdriver or tool to open the wedge on the lower latch to move it to the correct place on the band. This is easier to size than most metal watch bands and is much more flexible. Once you set it to your wrist size it shouldn’t fall off and the adjustment shouldn’t move unless it isn’t set properly. It has a latching mechanism that should snap together and hold tight. It can be hard to get used to putting on at first but after a few times you will know how to easily put it on. I’ve owned a watch band of this style previously on a watch I wore daily so it was okay for me. I’d say that anyone looking at an automatic watch is probably more of a watch enthusiast and already knows the little nuances of owning one. If you are new to watches do your research first. Otherwise if you want something a little easier get the Timex Q version of this. It comes with a battery powered quartz movement, while it ticks a bit loudly, is a little easier to live with if you aren’t accustomed to automatic watches. This is a beautiful Retro Inspired watch, I got it while it was on sale for 120 and it’s a steal at that price.

Great watch
Good looking watch, sturdy and elegant. It is my everyday watch since I bought it. Snoopy is inconspicuous and elegant. Love it.

Love it! Though overpriced at MSRP
I love this watch! I had it in my cart for weeks, waiting for an excuse to buy it. The thing holding me back was the $299 MSRP and price on Amazon. I noticed it went down to $200 while I was shopping on Amazon, so I immediately completed the purchase.At Grey Market retailers, this goes for about $160 (which I think is the perfect price). Unfortunately the Snoopy edition proved difficult to find at that price as it was sold out everywhere. Even sold out on the Timex website at $299.I still recommend it, but it’s all about what you’re willing to pay. For me, $200 was an acceptable price and worth it to me. As a snoopy lover, I’ll give this to my kids one day! Not a doubt in my mind it won’t last for a very long time as it uses a Citizen movement!

Poor quality
Watch is really good looking. However, like most other reviews state the band is terrible and doesn’t stay clasped. The watch kept falling off my wrist and eventually the crystal was cracked. Very disappointing.

Me esperé varios meses al Buen Fin y lo conseguí con rebaja de $2000, que considero es un excelente valor. Debes tener en cuenta que, si te gustan los relojes grandes a) lo más seguro es que este reloj se te haga muy chico (soy de muñeca delgada) y b) es automático, lo que significa es que nunca va a ser tan preciso como uno de quarzo y que si no lo usas un tiempo, le tienes que dar cuerda para que funcione de nuevo.Si estás listo para estas dos cosas, el reloj te va a encantar con lo bonito que es el reloj y el estilo que le da el Snoopy encapuchado. Tremendo 🙂👍

Muy bonito reloj y de muy buena calidad lo recomiendo ampliamente, llego en tiempo y forma.

It’s a fantastic watch by a classic brand in it’s classic style with a modern Japanese automatic movement you can’t go wrong with that combination
