Affordable Timex Watch Bands

Timex watches are among the most easily recognized and desired watches in the world.  The reason why is very simple.  The company's watches are durable, affordable, and last for many years.  A lot of these watches have even become classics that are highly desired by collectors including the Timex Military Watch and the Timex Expedition.  Few will argue over the longevity of Timex watches.  Most people do agree though that the watch bands should be replaced every few years as they tend to wear out.

Watch bands that wear out and break are very common.  When this happens it should not be considered a true reflection of the quality of the watch.  The two are completely separate entities.  Even when a watch band is made out of the best materials possible, it can still become damaged and break.

Watches worn by both men and women commonly come with leather bands.  These bands look great and are very comfortable to wear.  The good news about leather bands, however, is that they are very inexpensive.  A good leather watch band can be purchased for around $10.

Scuba divers usually use waterproof watches that have rubber watch bands.  For these watches rubber is necessary so that water can't damage the watch.  Rubber watch bands are usually more affordable than leather bands and sell for $3 to $10.

Watch bands made from stainless steel tend to be more expensive than leather or rubber watch bands.  This is because the process to make these watch bands is more complex than the other two types.  $10 to $30 will usually buy a good stainless steel watch band.

Replacing your Timex watch band is usually no big deal since they are very affordable.  Doing so will give you a few more years of life out of your durable Timex watch.
