Comfortable and stylish
A very nice looking and durable watch, and reasonably priced as well. The Indiglo light is a welcome feature.

Very stylish, but not perfect
1 of 1 found this helpful Bought this watch solely due to it's design. I loved the look of it and the design of the face and dial goes well with the metal mesh band. The watch looks great, it's comfortable, and the Indiglo light works well and is a nice added bonus. However, the date numerals are very small, hard to read, lack contrast with the rest of the watch face, and some of the numbers don't completely center in the cut out window, a major pet peeve for me. My advice to Timex is to re-issue this watch without the date window. Do that, and they will have a five star watch in my opinion.

Nearly the equal of the N90s
I picked up a lightly used N80 mostly because I wanted something lighter and smaller than my N90s. Thus far i am very pleased with the results. The auto focus and metering are outstanding (par for the course for Nikon), the built in flash does not seem to pop up at inopportune times (Like my EOS Rebel ti), and the LCD display on both the top of the camera and in the eyepiece is easy to read and informative. The LCD illuminator is a very useful feature as well. Since I am well acquainted with my other Nikon AF, I figured most of the features on THIS camera would be intuitive - they aren't. I strongly recommend going through the instruction manual start to finish, and then go through it again. If you don't you will not be able to use all the features of this camera, particularly the pre-programed custom features. The one feature I truly dislike on this camera is the AF area selector button, which is too small and not always easy to engage. That said, this is a high quality Nikon, with more bells and whistles than most people will even need. If you want to shoot IR film, or want an extremely high flash sync speed, then this camera is not for you, but for nearly everyone else, this camera will give you excellent results.
