Timex T80 - a PITA
This T80 - based on their watches from the '80s - is a pain in the arse. I bought Timex watches in '80s and they weren't this aggravating. It's hard to strap it on because it's one of those metallic bands with a clip that's hard to reach when the band keeps sliding away. I can't get the watch to only sound the alarm I set for it; it keeps wanting to beep at the top of the hour and even when I get it to NOT do that--mostly--without turning off the alarm, it does kind of a soft alarm at odd hours before I'm ready to get up. I've Googled and watched videos on how to get the damn thing to turn of the top of the hour beeps but there is NOT 'chrome' icon like there is an alarm icon, and the missing icon is what they tell me to turn off. As if. It arrived on time, anyway, in a huge wasteful carton for a watch that's like eight inches long. I thought these things could take a lickin' and keep on tickin'? Maybe not.
