Timex Expedition WS4 Watch

Timex’s Expedition WS4 watch functions as a watch and is the same size but, everything differs from there. It will provides a suite of instruments anyone serious about adventuring in the outdoors would die for.


Timex Expedition WS4 Watch

The Timex Expedition WS4 has a large LCD screen which reminds one of the Garmin 310XT. It can cram readings for altitude, weather conditions and compass heading onto a single screen. The digital compass does not get its readout from computations of the output of a GPS receiver.

  1. Great Watch from Timex, it beats the features of old school vintage classic retro digital LCD watches from 70s and 80s which has normal functions like melody alarm chronograph, Games, Databank, and Calculator.
