I bought the same Timex right after Christmas for just around $100.  I like it, but first thing I did was ditch the bracelet and replace it with an Alpha bracelet left over from my Newman chrono.  The end links didn't work so I just used the Timex end links with the rest of the Alpha bracelet.  Works well, no rattle and you would never know it wasn't the original :)

The main hands are a bit iffy in pics but in person they work, IMHO.  The blue second hand looks great.  I really like the power reserve indicator, and it is keeping excellent time.  However, the cyclops does suck big time!

I have put it in regular work rotation, looks good with a shirt and tie hand6.gif

Cheers,
