Title: great watch, awful band
Product review: I bought this watch less than a month ago, and I got this one because I knew I wanted a Timex Ironman (I've loved the ones I've had in the past) but I didn't want the resin band, because it irritates my wrist and my last one got discolored. This watch is great, and I use all of its features regularly--I originally bought it to time my runs, but I also use it to count down study time so I take regular breaks, I love having 3 alarms available to set, etc. The problem is, in less than a month the band is completely fraying! I have strings hanging off in multiple places that I need to cut off. I do wear the watch all day, but I take it off to shower. I just can't believe the band is falling apart so quickly. Obviously Timex has a lot of work to do as far as their bands are concerned. I'm not sure what to do because I do love the function of the watch itself. I probably will not buy another Ironman in the future unless they change something significant about their bands.
