Car Insurance

This is about the 5th Atlantis 100 I’ve owned. I’ve worn one daily for more than 10 years. It’s not fancy but the watch does what it’s supposed to. It keeps time well, has dual time zones for travel, an alarm, count down and count up timers. The Indiglo display is bright enough and big enough for my old eyes to read it at night until the battery is almost dead. My watches have been underwater a lot and only one ever failed during scuba diving. The only problem with the watch is that replacing the battery when it finally fails after a few years and pressure testing the watch costs about as much as replacing the watch. The plastic band is better than the expansion version for diving and it wears out after one to two years. But at less Timex T77511 than $30 for the watch, plus the cost of replacing the band once, it’s a great deal for those who don’t need to show off a fancy watch.

I needed an all around watch to wear when working in the yard, or during sports, etc. I was fed up with the nylon or velco straps that get “funky” from wearing all the time so I decided to go with the poly strap this time. The strap is kind of rigid though and seems to dig into my wrist, especially around the clasp. Other than that, the watch is fully functional with lap counters, timer, alarms, etc. and water resistant so it can be counted on for sure.
