“Same Problem”

Review:
I am having the same problem as the other two reviewers. I bought this watch for my husband so that he could utilize the vibrating alarm while on deployment. Well I too received the wrong instructions, and we can not get the vibration alarm to work. Why are there multiple people purchasing the same watch and receiving the wrong instructions, and why not post them here so we don't have to waste out time calling you?!wrong instructions

The watch has nice features, Setting was not a problem. I had researched the watch and knew to turn on vibrate was under the time setting menu. I would prefer to be able to set tone or vibrate separate per alarm or chime.
Vibrate works well is noticeable during day and goes off 10 seconds before audible sounds, if the vibrations do get your attention you can cancel the alarm before it sounds. Out of three nights with the watch the vibrate alarm has woke me up with 2 times. The third night was 4 hours of sleep and I missed the first alarm (vibrate and sound), but the auto repeat 5 minutes later I woke up to the sound.
Over all the watch workd great. instructions could be better on vibrate and how to look up occasions. Just like any new toy it takes some playing to figure out how to use itit works welldoes what was expected. would prefer metal case
“Timex Expedition Vibration Alarm - cloth Band T49854”

This watch has "killer" features. I have purchased 3 of these watches as gifts for friends. I am sure Timex has not figured out how to alert its customers, or its retailers, to the many possible uses of this watch. I would also bet Timex does not know how to experiment with marketing options to define which options are more effective._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_ The vibration alarm ( only, if desired ) makes this watch very special for anyone needing to be alerted quietly to either an individual or repeated timed event. One has the option to use the hydration mode for a second, separate timed event, as well. Duplicate Bridge players, Laboratory workers, Scientists, those who attend meetings, photographers running several cameras, and those in loud environments, like racing sailboats with the wind flapping the sails, will all enjoy the vibration alert/ audible alert choices offered by this model._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_ It is simple to re-sync the time, in seconds, when listening to a radio station beep, or the US Naval Oberservatory online. _x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_ Yes, it's no match for the no-longer made Timex Data Link, with its many countdown timers, scheduling events, and alarms options, etc. but, I believe this watch is, by far, the best current Timex choice available for timing events. Its also the best "bang for the buck" vibration choice amoung all brands.The battery, and bright, illuminated, when needed, face feature has, so-far, lasted for 6 months with heavy use._x000D__x000D__x000D__x000D_ My only caveats of the watch itself, are, 1) that it becomes more inaccurate ( only several seconds ) in a month, than I would prefer, and, did not experience, from my severalTimex Data Links. 2) The alarms are only three, and thus offer a only a short chain to assure a certain wake-up, and I am not a heavy sleeper... But, the vibration + audible choice does help when compared to a watch with only an audible alarm. 3) I would like a text entry feature that coupled with, at least, each event alarm to aid my memory of " why is this string on my finger " :)
“Does Not Disturb Others”

Review:
Finally, an accurate watch that does not disturb others when the alarm goes off. Also, I no longer miss the alarm in loud environments. It has just enough timers for me. I use the hydration as a 2nd count down timer. 3 daily alarms are enough for me. I have no need for the occasion feature. (I have an iPhone). Also, numbers etc. are large enough so I can easily read without glasses. Compass bezel serves only a cosmetic function but I soon did not notice it. Very happy with this watch. Hope the resin strap I got lasts a long time and can be easily replaced with exact replacement when the time comes. I got the model with the resin strap.

Review:
I bought the Timex T498549J. The included instructions were for the Timex W-214. They do not give any clues as to how to set the vibration/audible alarm feature. I have not been able to find the appropriate manual online.
HELP!Wrong instructions are a poor example of quality

Review:
The only reason i bought this watch was for the vibrating alarm which is not included in the instructions or online. I wish I did not have to do so much work to find out how to use the product. Please post the proper instructions online so that customers can use the watch properly. Fix your mistakes please, I am still unable to access the vibrating alarm function.
I'll re-rate watch when i figure out how to use it
..easy to readhard to useCant figure out how to use product, wrong directions included with watch, no solution posted online.
