5.5 6 6.5 7 7.5 8

Wrap a garment measuring tape snuggly around your wrist just below the wrist bone. Alternatively use a piece of string and then measure the string length with a ruler. The average wrist size for men is 6.5-7.5", and for women is 5.5-6.5".

How to choose the right case size

Case diameter determines the watch size: it’s the width of the watch case, excluding the crown. Small wrists (<6") suit 28–36mm, average (6–7") fit 36–42mm, and larger wrists (7"+) can wear 42mm+. Smaller cases can feel refined or vintage-inspired, while larger ones make a bold, modern statement.

Expedition Camper 38mm Fabric Strap

"Expedition Camper 38mm Fabric Strap Watch . . . I owned one of these Expedition watches with the fabric strap - emphasis on fabric strap - for the better part of a decade while working outside, in all kinds of weather, driving a truck and moving trailers for a major automaker. . . . When considering practicality and pure comfort, this is the best option. This is the watch that can stand up to anything you can throw at it - autowork, farming, golf - and then withstand a good cleaning in order to come back for more punishment. . ."

— Mark C. (5/5)

I'm 71 and this is

"I'm 71 and this is the ONLY watch I will wear??? It's a little bit more expensive than when I started buying them in 1972; but "it does take a lickin and keeps on stickin". Can't really find them anymore at retail stores or mall, like you use too."

— Barbara G. (5/5)

As each of my grandchildren

"As each of my grandchildren get older, I buy them a watch. I think it's important for them to one, respect and accept the responsibility of owning a watch and two, know how to tell time on a dial watch, not a LCD display. As they get older they can upgrade to whatever watch they desire, but I consider a Timex to be a good, sturdy start for them."

This replaces an older inidglo

"This replaces an older inidglo Expedition watch that no long indiglos. I preferred the larger 12-3-6-9 markings for being easier to read without my reading glasses. It also had hands with large arrowheads at the ends, making them easier to see. The new one isn't bad, but in this respect the old one was better. I managed a small scratch in the plastic "crystal", but have used clear packing tape to make a screen protector which I hope will help. The older one in all the decades I have owned it has not scratched; I expect it has an actual glass crystal. Since the "crystal" is molded it would have been nice to mold in a magnifying lens to make the date more easily readable. The old one still keeps time, but it no longer indiglos. I think the old one came with a plastic strap and whatever oils my skin produces seem to eat through soft plastic, so I am happy about the new fabric strap. Finally, I am not a fan of the triangle recess back cover screws. This adds an unnecessary cost and inconvenience to replacing the battery."

Q&A

what should be used to buff acrylic lens: Hi Tom! Thanks for your question. For light scratches on the acrylic lens of the Expedition Camper 38mm Fabric Strap Watch, many customers use a gentle acrylic polishing compound such as Polywatch to help reduce marks and improve clarity. We recommend using only products designed specifically for acrylic crystals and following the product instructions carefully.
I was wondering if I could buy a replacement crystal for this watch anywhere? I love this watch so much but the crystal fell off and I cannot find it anywhere. I dont want a new watch, just to replace the crystal: Hello Edith! We’re so glad to hear how much you love your Expedition Camper 38mm Fabric Strap Watch. While we don’t sell replacement crystals directly, we recommend visiting a trusted local jeweler or watch repair specialist who may be able to source and install a compatible crystal for you. We completely understand wanting to keep your beloved watch ticking—thank you for your loyalty!
