The year is 1937. Young Alphonse Caillet leaves his safe home with his grandmother on the remote Louisiana coastal island of Grand Isle to go to live in New Orleans with his patrons, the wealthy LaStrappe family. The LaStrappes are fond of Alphonse, having spent summers with him on Grand Isle. They make it possible for him to attend the renowned Jesuit High School in New Orleans. His Granmere has a difficult time allowing him to go to live with the LaStrappes in the big city of New Orleans, but ultimately she does what she knows is best for her grandson. She accompanies him to New Orleans and to the Jesuit school. This is a time when Germany is making military moves and Walt Disney is making movie magic. All is well in Louisiana. Alphonse makes new friends and finds his place at the venerable Jesuit school, where he has unexpected adventures and finds his strengths and talents. He gets into a bit of trouble, but ultimately he grows in ways he never expected.

Little Small On The Wrist
Really cool timepiece, been loving timex a lot recently, this is me coming over Casio/G-shocks. Although it is a bit smaller on the wrist it still looks very nice and I really love the gray and like green color contrast. Really easy to read the time as well.

Sturdy and digital
This watch has “ fake screws” holding the band on . The band is actually held on by the usual pins holding it on most watches but weaker . The pin came off while I was putting it on for the first time! This is the second time I bought off Amazon in 2 weeks where the watch appeared to be sturdy and the pins fell off . Going back to military watches that have material straps that go completely around wrist and do not have pressure on pins

Ten years of ownership…Thank you, Timex!
Color: Black, Size: One Size
Solid watch for everyday wear. I have worn this watch for over 10 years. I let a watch shop replace the battery about every 18 months. Other than the original band (which lasted 5 years) I have had zero problems. Still looks great, rugged and manly😇 Overall I recommend this watch for its value, reliability, simple clear design, legible hands in all light conditions. Great watch!!!

Solid Watch for Everyday Casual Wear
Color: Black, Size: One Size
I have purchased this item other times and I’m quite satisfied with wearing this watch everyday with casual wear. The size is just right not too small or large.
