I've owned the Timex Ironman 8 lap watch since August 96 and knock on wood, I haven't replaced the battery. Of course, I turn off the hourly "beeps" and don't set alarms on unless necessary to conserve battery life. Of the many watches I've owned, this...

Pros: Indiglo, raised buttons, ease of use, inexpensive

Pros: The best value sports watch I've seen.

Cons: Indiglo turns off immediately after release of button 8 lap memory may not be enough
