inaccurate distance Aug 11, 2010 Nice look .Great features.Pace and steps/min are only displayed while doing the activity. But I have tried the atomatic calibration 4 times in the distance that they recommend and I have NEVER gotten a correct distance after my jogs. Thinking of returning it.

Timex Ironman T5K092 fitness watch Apr 26, 2010 I wanted something I could use to estimate my mileage when I was running on unfamiliar trails. This not only gave me fairly accurate numbers (believe me, i checked on known trails), but was easy to use.

Excellent timepiece! Mar 29, 2010 I bought this watch for my wife and her marathon running, she absolutely adores it! Once we set all the calculations it's a flawless piece. We did all the measuring for walk, jog & run stride lengths and steps per minute for each as well (which is a bit painstaking taking up to 15 minutes of your time...a whole 15 minutes, geez) she never has to worry about it being off ever again...and me being rather anal I even checked distances against it on my bike, car and web, perfect! I highly recommend you do this for accuracy. Like Ron says..."set it and forget it!"
Now, as to what everyone else is complaining about..."too big" I just have to say "HUH"? Have you looked at watches these days? THIS is too BIG? Something from Alice in Wonderland is too big. It does have a large face, though no bigger than my sport or designer watches, I don't know what these sporty people expect to be able to read on a smaller face while jogging & swimming. You know this is for outdoors, right, not exquisite dining at the White House?
Other complaints seem to be "user error" not the watches, I don't see your reviews as helpful for or against.
My wife and I highly recommend this watch for runners who want to concentrate on your run and not counting or checking your watch. She's had several pedometers in the past and they all died quickly or were inaccurate that I though I'd step it up a notch for her with this, boy did I ever. She now says she enjoys her "worry free runs".

watch band falls off Mar 17, 2010 I loved this watch. Cute and waterproof. Then, the band started to peel away from the watch. Not so cute now.

I like it! Mar 07, 2010 I like this watch. It does what it says it can do. And it's not too big and bulky to wear everyday. I did have some difficulty calibrating the watch for walking and jogging, but once I got it done, it's worked well. I'm still having fun playing with it and all the things it can do!
