    I kinda like that. It's big at 46mm. Thoughts?
    Once in awhile you get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right.

    My wrist is a bit over 7" if I'm remembering correctly. So the 46mm, while not my usual preference, is doable.

    Fit and finish are fine for this price level. Bezel is nicely tight and clicks from position to position crisply with no play.

    Strap is nothing special; Timex lists it as synthetic rubber.

    Large brushed stainless steel case + 46mm size gives this thing some weight. I don't find it too heavy or unbalanced on my wrist, but I'm definitely aware that I'm wearing a watch.

    Movement seems to be a typical Timex analog quartz movement; I haven't had a chance to assess its accuracy over time.

    Crystal is mineral glass.

    Crisp white dial. Dark dial markers and hour and minute hands are nicely visible. Nice and legible. I like the look of it.

    Overall, I'm pleased so far. I expect this to be in significant rotation for spring and summer.
