Timex Unisex Blue Ironman Sleek iControl Resin Strap Watch #T5K049 Right now


Great so far
It comes with the watch and the receiver that plugs into the iPod. I used this with both my 2004 iPod mini, and my 2009 iPod Touch.
Both work.
Things you need to know: When you first press any of the buttons on the watch you'll think you broke it. They click IN, then
never pop out again. All the buttons do this the first time you press on them. After that, you don't feel any click when you press.
The reaction time for the iPod is about 0.5 seconds.
The buttons are small, but you can still work them with your gloves ON.
Once you plug in the receiver for this watch, you can only control volume from the watch.
With the receiver plugged in, you will loose volume control on the iPod itself, and can only hear sound with with headphones plugged in. If you unplug the headphones, the sound will not play through the iPod internal speakers.
You can still move through your play lists, and play/Pause (on the actual iPod).
The iPod will light up it's display every time you use the remote.
The controls you get are: Play/Pause, Next song, Last Song, UP/Down Volume (on the watch).
You will need to select your play list before you throw your iPod in your backpack, and zip it up.
I've had it for over a week, and no issues yet.
It's a much cheaper and better option to the Apple TU016ZM/A Nike + iPod WatchRemote, which is $69 + $49 MORE for the Apple MA365LL/D Nike+ iPod Sport Kit that plugs into you iPod.
I got this for $36, but I see it other places for $80.
