Title: Battery died in less than three months--supplier problem?
Product review: This watch is well-priced, easy to read, and versatile enough to be worn on all but dressy occasions. The band was about two links too long for my 6-1/2 in. woman's wrist (medium-large), but nothing I couldn't live with.Unfortunately, about 2-1/2 months after I received it, it stopped working--or rather, it stopped dead, then started again when I shook it a little, and then after another day, stopped completely, which suggests that the battery was old when it arrived in my mailbox.2-1/2 months out, it's too late to return it to Amazon, even though this is clearly a problem with the supplier Amazon got it from. I've purchased watches at this price level before and they've worked for approximately the year they should work before needing another battery. Since this one cost about $34 and I'd have to pay $15 to replace the battery, I might as well buy another watch--but not a Timex, this time, and not from Amazon.
