I love this watch. The Indiglo is dark, but if you notice it generates a glow from the hands and dial indicators, which you can then use to read most functions. Compass is fun and works well. Tide clock is good once you calibrate it, but you will have to reset it periodically, depending on your location, which is expected and doesnt hurt its purpose, which is to give you an indication of the tide state and direction. Thermometer gives you an average of wrist temp and room/outside temp, but as it says in the instructions if you want the real temp remove the watch for a few minutes. A bonus is that the watch can be used to get water temperature. I never write reviews, but this is just an excellent value and a fun toy for us guys.

Expedition(tm) E-Tide Temp Compass
This watch is so bad, that within 2 months I get 2 new pieces from the service . In Colombia I lost the buttoms within one day and so the watch is absolutedly not suitable for expedition-purposes. The compass doesn t work correctly and the whole item is horrible.

Its a great watch. Comfortable and attractive.
Pros: Great Tide Clock, Solid feel and soft band. Easy to set, easy to read.
Cons: Its a big watch.. measure first. Compass is finicky but accurate as long as you configure it away from cars and electronics, indiglo is a little dark, but readable.

I really love this watch. It looks rugged and expensive at the same time, but the cost is very reasonable... and its a Timex!
