    I've got this same watch but in black and beige. Great watch. I also have just about each model of the time, temp, tide, compass as well. Also a Flyback with a compass. The linear chronograph is a well designed looking watch as well.

    I have this watch in the green dial with the orange retrograde subdials (even more striking than this one, but not for everybody), bought it about 2 months ago. I love this watch! I bought an orange 2 piece canvas strap which, with the orange subdials, really pops! I don’t remember you’re mentioning it has a 100m WR which is pretty nice. Great travel watch with 2 time zones and 100m WR! I highly recommend it!

    The Intelligent Quartz Fly-Back Chrono was a watch I really wanted for a while, but never pulled the trigger on. They never had the exact model that I wanted (T2N700, black case, black watch face, gold font) at the local Timex store, or at other watch stores, and I wasn't willing to pay a premium to get it. Alas, it ended up being one of the ones that got away from me.
    That said, I've yet to check for deals on the secondary market. Maybe I'll have a better chance now.
    EDIT: Welp, I finally got one. Paid about 52 pounds and about the same amount to have it express shipped. But even with the shipping price it still only cost less than half as much as it did when I saw it brand new at the Timex store. Quite happy with it.

      In retrospect I should have. When I made this I was experimenting with slightly different formats. I was trying to go for a leaner shorter video. Basicly everything you need, with minimal fluff. Seeing if that improved audience retention. My latest videos I've kind of gone the opposite direction. Thanks for watching, and commenting. Always good to get feedback.

    • @olaf2046
      @olaf2046 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No worries. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and it was well shot and edited. Also I found it informative for someone looking to buy this watch. I'm actually looking to buy it, not to wear, but to make a video describing the flyback chronograph function. It is a rare and oftentimes confused function with the snap back to 0 that mechanical chronographs.

    • @RelativeTime
      @RelativeTime  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks. Sounds interesting, I'll keep an eye out for that video. I'm always interested to know more of the mechanical aspects of things.

      My phone won't let me respond, but you responded to my text about the Armitron strap replacement. Armitron has a piece in the middle, so you can't use a regular band or strap. I called them and they said they don't have replacement. Never buy another Armitron!

      Sorry. I don't have this specific watch anymore, so can't tell you what battery you need.
      Normally you pop the caseback off to see and replace it. It's pretty easy to do, but harder to get back on. So if your not sure how watch some videos on it.

    • @RelativeTime
      @RelativeTime  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks for watching. Looking at the T2N700, it looks identical. So I'm pretty sure it's just a different strap. Same as TW2R54900, which again same case, different strap. Basically if it says Flyback-chronograph. Its the same watch, just different dials, and colors.

      HA! The next one I just made a bunch of puns for the last 20 seconds. I came very close to reading Wiliam Shatner song lyrics after that. But I started getting some subscribers, so I backed off on that. I was experimenting making short bare bones just descriptions, and almost no personal commentary. But I never got much feedback, on them. Eventually they started getting longer. Thanks again.
