"Our IRONMAN(®) collection has been helping athletes cross finish lines since 1986, and we know that athletes want to do what they love, not stand around and push buttons, so we made it simpler without any compromise," said TIMEX President & CEO Tobias Reiss-Schmidt. "TIMEX antenna technology is top of the line, and there are no hassles or extra frills to get in the way of your run. It really is the simplest GPS watch you'll ever use."
