Timex Expedition Shock World Time Indiglo Digital T49972 Men’s Watch

Timex is an American watch manufacturing company known to make affordable, simple but durable watches. The company has been in operation since 1854 but the Timex brand itself was born in 1950, and has since become USA’s largest maker of timepieces. The success of the brand is perhaps its ability to embrace new technology and offer wristwatches at an extremely affordable price tag.

I have a number of Timex watches in my collection – I find them to be quite reliable and durable. And since they aren’t too expensive you can get different models within a small budget. This time though, my sights were set on the Timex Expedition Shock World Time Indiglo Digital T49972 Men’s Watch. I love the outdoors and am frequently on adventure trips around the country. The Timex T49972 looked rugged and sturdy, built to suit an adventurous lifestyle like mine.

The Timex T49972 has a resin construction, both the case and strap are made of resin, keeping in mind the extreme environment and abuse it may be subjected to. The Timex Expedition Shock World Time Indiglo Digital T49972 Men’s Watch offers several useful features. Just like every Timex timepiece, the T49972 also comes equipped with the brand’s signature Indiglo nightlight.  In fact, Timex is the creator of the Indiglo backlight technology – the blue light which allows you to see the time in the dark.

The Timex Expedition Shock World Time Indiglo Digital Men’s Watch is a global watch, perfect for the world traveller. It features 30 different time zones that span more than 62 cities of the world. It also features four different alarms which are a convenient option for many users. The resin case of the T49972 houses a quartz movement with the face of the dial covered with a mineral crystal. The time of course is displayed in digital format.

The Timex T49972 also offers shock resistance and water resistance up to 100 meters. A stopwatch, countdown timer, day and date display along with AM/PM display are some other tools included. At 49 mm case diameter this watch is not an overly big timepiece, but suitable to large-wristed men. With all the complications housed in a sturdily built timepiece you could wear it during any of your off-roading trips, rock climbing excursions or any adventure trip without worry of damaging it.
