What Timex iControl comes With
For only around $34.99, the latest installment of the Timex Ironman Triathlon Series is definitely worth every penny. It also is as tough as it looks. The model is available in a water-resistant casing, it sports indiglo backlighting, and of course, is designed to work well with your iPod. The dongle gives you the capacity to control the volume, track, and play and pause functions of your pod. Like other sports watches, it still sports the usual alarm, chrono, recall, and interval timer modes.
Plus, you’ll realize that the iControl watch transmits signals flawlessly and impeccably to your music player. Control your music with ease because everything has been designed to be within easy reach. The best part about this latest design is that you don’t even need to look down and stop midstride to make your pod respond to whatever it is you want to do. You can control functions such as play and pause, track forward and back, and volume up and down. The chronograph training log stores workouts according to date, with best lap, average lap, and total segment time. If you want to split or lap in large digits, there’s also the 100-hour chronograph.
Aside from its myriad of capabilities, the total run format and synchronization timer maintains total activity timers settable up to as much as 24 hours. Included are also the countdown and stop timers, as well as its ability to countdown and repeat. There are different ways to set the alarm and make your workout more effective. This is the strength of Timex, and it is a must-have.
