IRONMAN® Classic 50 is an elite athlete's watch.
I have used it for swimming and diving in the pool, rollerblading, cycling and running. It can perform split lap timing and store in memory but i tend to avoid pressing buttons under-water as advised by your mechanic.
Looking to the near future, i am concerned with the watch strap replacement fee of $39 and battery replacement fee of $15. This is my second Ironman Timex watch. My first Ironman Timex watch more than a decade ago was beyond economical repair due to the parts replacement costs of $54 and beyond. I understand this is CLOUT9's new office in IMM. Will i be entitled to discounted replacement when the batteries die out or when the strap breaks? I hope to wear and use this Timex Ironman watch for everyday athletic pursuit.
