Presenting the Timex Expedition North Men's Watch TW4B33700, a 41 mm digital field instrument with a black case cut like a piece of equipment: four exposed screw heads at the corners, thick guards protecting every pusher and a small red index at twelve. The black bezel carries the function legends printed all the way round the display, INDIGLO and DST / RECALL on the left, START / + and SPLIT / 12H-24H on the right, MODE, NEXT / EXIT, RESET / SET and STOP / - below, with a thin red ring closing the inner edge and 100 M | SOLAR printed in red at six.
EXPEDITION appears in olive lettering on the lower case, matching the military green perforated strap that leaves the case through integrated lugs. The layout gives day, hour, minute, second and date at a single glance, while the legends around the case correspond to the chronograph with split time, the 12 or 24 hour format switch, the alarm shown by the bell icon, the daylight saving adjustment and the INDIGLO backlight that turns the whole screen into a readable panel in the dark.
The acrylic crystal absorbs knocks instead of shattering, and 10 ATM of water resistance covers rain, rivers and swimming.Expedition North is the outdoor line of Timex, a brand born in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1854 and responsible for some of the most used watches of the twentieth century. Timex made timekeeping affordable for millions, then changed night reading forever with the INDIGLO backlight in 1992. This model concentrates that practical spirit: clear numerals, solar autonomy and a case that does not ask to be treated carefully.
