Product Information
Full details
The Timex Expedition Scout is a rugged, reliable timepiece tailored for outdoor enthusiasts and those who appreciate a classic, utilitarian aesthetic. Its primary benefit is the combination of enduring build quality and the iconic INDIGLO night-light, making it highly functional in low-light environments. While the 40mm case is versatile, those with exceptionally small or large wrists should note that it is designed to fit circumferences between 150 and 205 mm, which may not accommodate all wrist sizes comfortably.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set the time on your Timex Expedition Scout, gently pull the crown out to the furthest position and rotate it until the desired time is reached, then push it back in to engage the movement. For the leather strap, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture to prevent material degradation. Periodically wipe the watch case with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or perspiration. If you are near the limits of the 150mm to 205mm fit range, consider using the secondary holes on the strap for a secure fit, or consult a professional if the strap needs further adjustment.
