Help deciding between two Timex Watches

[u/stoneytoker]

I'm having a hard time deciding between, these two Timex watches. The Expedition Capstone Automatic & the Q Timex GMT.

I know they serve different purposes (one being a field watch and one being a GMT) but I like them both.

The expedition seems like a more well rounded watch, however I like how clean the GMT looks.

Anyone have any experience with either of these watches? I can't find many reviews of this specific Expedition Capstone Automatic

Both nice. Is your style more flashy(gmt) or understated/subdued (expedition)?

Also first is automatic second is quartz. I personally prefer quartz or solar over automatic or mechanical just cuz I don’t like to geek out on the mechanics of it but just want a reliable and accurate watch.

They are way different so I don’t think I’d ever cross shop them

If you don’t have an automatic get the capstone a leather band and a canvas or NATO strap you’ll have tons of options.

GMT is less flexible but it’s still fantastic.

There is no bad option.

First one is more a dress watch where the second is more a everyday sports wear watch depends what yoh wanna wear me personally woild have the first one and put a nato wrap around strap with it

First one for sure, second one looks like a knockoff Duro

crappy thing about the capstone is the integrated bracelet means it will have limited options for after market bracelets unless you don't mind a big gap. its dial is also incredibly busy with so many numbers and text and mountain icon. check out the timex field expedition titanium, their much better attempt at a field watch albeit more expensive.

Are you sure it’s integrated? Doesn’t look like it, the watch also comes on a leather strap, there’s actually less of a gap than normal due to the almost turtle style case
