Amazon.com Product Description
Keep your sports training focused with the stylish Timex T5E231 Ironman Triathlon multi-function, performance sport digital watch, which features a dark gray resin top ring sitting upon a metallic silver case and top pusher for easy access to split and lap times. Sport timing features include a 100-hour chronograph with lap or split option, 100-lap memory recall, 199 lap counter, on-the-fly recall of lap or split, and interval timers settable up to 24 hours (9 timers with countdown/stop and countdown/repeat). The training log stores workouts by date, with best lap, average lap, and total segment time, and the total run format/synchro timer maintains total activity time (less time paused during workout and overall running time. Other features include two time zones, built-in setting reminders, water resistance to 100 meters, and a black resin strap. It incorporates the Timex Flix system, which activates the Indiglo night-light with a simple flick of your wrist. To activate FLIX, put the watch into Night-Mode by pressing and holding the Indiglo night-light button 3 seconds until it beeps. With the watch in Night-Mode, a forward "flick" of the wrist with a sharp "stop" will activate the Indiglo night-light for three seconds. The Indiglo night-light uniformly lights the surface of the watch dial using patented blue electroluminescent lighting technology. It uses less battery power than most other watch illumination systems, enabling your watch battery to last longer. The Night Mode feature allows you to illuminate the Indiglo night-light for 3 seconds with any button press, regardless of the mode or function.

 my running watch March 8, 2010
Rohit D. Desai (New York, NY USA)
This is the best running/workout watch I've used. (I used a Nike Triax one previously.) I have used it to train for a half marathon and use it on all of my runs. It's quite easy to figure out how to use it. I don't really use the FLIX capabilities. The buttons are easy to press. The face is very readable while running because of the large face. The indiglo works great when you are running at night. The synthetic rubber band material is sturdy without feeling too stiff. The memory holds your previous workouts including the date which is a nice bonus if you need to transfer the info to on an online log and you don't have a chance to do it right away.
Simply the BEST!! March 4, 2010
Michael DENNISUK (trenton, michigan USA)
The Timex Ironman 100 lap FLIX is simply the best. I've tried others and they just don't match up. This watch has so many features that I use on a daily basis. First, the digital display is large enough for my old eyes to read it w/o glasses. The 100 lap chronograph feature is great for me as a track coach because, in addition to logging my own runs, I can store splits from my kids workouts. The timer is great for a variety of activities. The 5 alarms are great!! This is the best watch of it's type out there!!
 Issues with Timex Ironman 100 Lap Flix (T5E231 February 17, 2010
James A. Culp (Milwaukee WI)
I've owned a number of the Timex Ironman watches over the last 20 years & found them all to be a very good quality product for the money. However the last two that I've purchased (both the model identified in the header) have had serious quality issues. With both watches the buttons stick & do not allow you to change the mode or access any of the features. I have found that by holding down all 5 buttons you can reset the watch & allow it to function again but this becomes problematic having to reset the time, date, etc. a couple of times a week. I believe this generally happens when either wearing long sleeves or having something depress one of the buttons continually. I bought the latest watch from Amazon in mid December thinking the last watch (lasted approximately 1 year with 2 returns to Timex) was a fluke & that a new one would resolve the issue. After having to reset the watch on average twice a week I sent it back to Timex in mid January & received a watch (I don't know if it was a new watch or the same watch) back about 10 days later. Within 4 days the same problem happened & I have returned it again hoping to get some a recommendation, advice, or acknowledgment from Timex. I like the functionality but the quality is not acceptable.
 Lasted 2 months February 10, 2010
Dennis M. Cavender
I love the look of this watch, however, mine lasted two months and then I couldn't change the mode - it is currently stuck in CHRONO mode and I can't switch it back to TIME (or any other mode). CHRONO mode isn't even working - the watch is "frozen".
Amazon is taking it back and I am ordering a new one - hope it lasts longer than two months!? If not, it will be my last TIMEX.
 VERY LARGE February 8, 2010

A nice looking watch. However, it is very large. In order to pull of the look of this watch, you really need to be a big person.
