Sapphire Crystal
Nearly impossible to scratch, the sapphire crystal lens is as hard and clear as a gemstone. There are only a few materials known to the world that can scratch it.
Sapphire Crystal
Scratch-resistant
Sapphire is the hardest crystal available. Given its hardness it is near impossible to scratch, however, it can be prone to shattering if subjected to a heavy impact. Its scratch resistance is very desirable and as such there is a higher cost to sapphire versus other crystals.

I love how this looks
"I love how this looks on my wrist. Chose it for the face font, bright lumens, color, and solar power feature since I want to wear it hiking. I've been wearing it a lot since it arrived, even though I have not hit the trail. Band is very comfortable and the large face is easy to read. For the price I think this is an amazing value. It's the first Timex in my collection and I learned about it from an article by Teddy B."

I really like my new
"I really like my new Expedition Solar watch a lot ! The fabric / web strap provides a very secure and comfortable fit - and the watch itself is exactly what I had in mind when I discovered it on the Timex website - very basic and utilitarian in both function and design with a definite Military aesthetic to it. . . Thank You Timex Crew - as far as I am concerned, you guys not only "got it right" - you absolutely nailed it !"

Q&A
- I have this watch but on a leather strap (no longer sold). It is fantastic. Will it ever be made with an automatic movement? The MK1 and the automatic titanium version aren’t as nice as this one. I’m worried about the battery capacitor dying and not being able to service it when it does. The only thing stopping this watch from being perfect is the lack of automatic movement.
- Hi Daniel! Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your Expedition® Field Post Solar watch. While we do not currently have plans to release that exact model with an automatic movement, Timex does offer automatic Expedition models you may be interested in, such as the Expedition® Capstone Automatic 39mm Eco-Conscious Fabric Strap Watch. We truly appreciate your feedback about movement preferences and will share your suggestion with our team. Your passion for the design is greatly valued.
- Does this watch have a screw down, locking crown?
- Hello Jorge! The Expedition® Field Post Solar 41mm Eco-Conscious Fabric Strap Watch does feature a screw-down crown and case back. It comes in a 41mm fully brushed recycled stainless-steel case with a sturdy crown protector for added durability. This design ensures both reliability and protection, making it a solid choice for everyday wear.
- Can I change the strap to another strap if I want ? In other words, does the case have holes for spring pins?
- Hello David! Yes, the Expedition® Field Post Solar 41mm Eco-Conscious Fabric Strap Watch features a slip-through fabric strap, making it easy to remove and replace. While it doesn’t use standard spring bar holes, the design allows you to swap the strap for another NATO or slip-through style band of the same width for a quick refresh. It’s a great way to personalise your look while keeping the rugged Expedition feel.
- So what is it...battery or solar powered? "A quartz analog movement is powered by a battery. Quartz movements are highly accurate, capable of keeping time to within milliseconds per day." - says in features
- Hi Sam! Thanks so much for reaching out and for your interest in the Expedition® Field Post Solar 41mm. You're absolutely right to ask for clarification—it features a quartz analog movement, but in this case, it's powered by solar energy rather than a traditional battery. That means it charges through exposure to light and stores energy internally, making it a more eco-conscious choice. We love that you're digging into the details!
- Just received my watch and the date is set on pm. I am unable to pull the crown out to adjust. How can I do this without damaging the watch?
- Hi Becky! Congratulations on your new Expedition® Field Post Solar 41mm—what a great pick. If you're having trouble pulling out the crown, try gently rotating it while applying light outward pressure; it should click into the date-setting position. If it still feels stuck, we recommend visiting an authorized Timex service center or a watch jeweler to avoid any damage.
