Constant Speed Performance for Precision Edge Profiling

The Makita RT0701C is a 1-1/4 horsepower corded compact fixed-base router powered by a 6.5 Amp motor engineered for precise woodworking edge profiling and flush-trimming. It features an electronic variable speed dial covering 10,000 to 30,000 RPM that maintains constant speed under load to prevent burn marks on dense hardwoods. The durable aluminum housing integrates a rack-and-pinion fine depth adjustment system and a quick-release cam lock for efficient setup modifications during continuous benchtop applications.

Best Used For:

  • Edge Profiling: Shaping and rounding over the borders of hardwood furniture components with zero surface scorching.
  • Hinge Mortising: Cutting exact, flat-bottomed recess cavities for door hinges and structural cabinet hardware.
  • Template Routing: Following custom patterns using standard template guides for production component replication.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • Electronic Speed Control: Stabilizes the rotation rate under heavy loads to ensure consistent cut quality.
  • Soft Start Mechanism: Suppresses initial startup torque for seamless, controlled activations without workpiece displacement.
  • Rack-and-Pinion Adjustment: Provides micro-fine depth customization for exacting machining tolerances.
  • Quick-Release Cam Lock: Allows tool-free motor removal and rapid coarse height transitions.
  • Flat-Top Housing: Provides a stable platform when inverted to ensure secure bit replacement using the integrated shaft lock.

Nice looking, easy to read, comfortable silicone strap, hard to buckle.
Color: Black
This watch has all the features other Ironman watches have plus a 100 lap interval timer. The interval timer is possibly the reason this watch is slightly more expensive than the other IM variants with the same size and general appearance. I find this watch to be nicer looking when going out to dinner than the more common multi-colored IM watches, though most of the functions are available on the others. My previous Ironman watch had a resin strap, which was somewhate stiff when putting it on. It was comfortable enough wearing on the river, but later in the day I sometimes took it off for comfort. This watch has a soft, stretchy, more comfortable silicone strap, that, sadly, is hard to buckle and tuck-in.

Longtime Ironman Wearer -- I Hate This Watch
Color: Black
I've worn the old Ironman 100 Lap Watch for Years I would still be wearing those watches if the Indigo on them didn't consistently fail. My main requisite is large, easy to read digital display, and the ability to turn the Indiglo on 20 seconds a day once or twice to see time in dark. If I could have found a simple watch with a large display made by any other reputable manufacturer I would have bought it instead. I have truly come to dislike Timex because their Indiglo fails so consistently, on (5) different Ironman's I've owned. Doubt this one'll be any better, viewing it a disposable purchase after a year. Unsurprisingly, Timex is an American company, all marketing no quality, and yes I'm an American, looking at something Casio Seiko, Swiss or Japanese made. They get fundamentals right in terms of quality. The band on this is redesigned. Grippier. Tougher to adjust or put on, but more apt to stay on and not slide once on. I'm used to the old band, don't love or hate this new one. I will usually take my watch off while typing for a long time, not as easy to do with this, not a dealbreaker, can see the sense in making a swimming and exercise watchband a bit tougher. I hate the branding on this watch. Bright red Ironman logo on both ends of the band near the watch. Even worse is the Timex and Ironman words ATOP the glass on the watch. This means they throw shadows down onto the watch face below the glass. This effect gets even worse with the magnification underwater. Inexcusable design flaw, simply so some corporation can self-advertise its products. The combination of these two sets of branding make the watch look cheap, gaudy, and inappropriate for any remotely formal wearing. This would not have been the case if it was understated in color scheme. Without the two red marks on the band, and the absolutely moronic decision to place the branding on the watch glass, you have something understated you could get away wearing all the time. Not with the branding. There are also two lines running horizontally above and below the time. I hate these when I'm looking at it underwater. Haven't tried the lap functions yet, I usually open lake swim, maybe the lines help with that, but for my use I hate them. I'm 6'4" tall, people complain the watch is big, it feels to me if anything a bit undersized or the proper size, others may find it big. I would rather have a slightly larger size with bigger numbers. Biggest plus is time SUPER easy to read. I'd love to be able to turn date off and only have time display and nothing else in some mode. I don't need to check the date 6 times a day. Love to have mode where I press one button, upper left say, and date shows for five seconds or something. Indiglo about the same as old big Ironman 100, excellent--when it doesn't break which it almost always does. I have many of these watches where the time still shows but Indiglo never works, Timex themselves admitted to me this is a known problem. The rounder face, versus rectangular, better looks, but wonder if it is optimal way to make most readable. I would pass on this watch. I have always liked Ironman watches, but the branding is so bad, glass especially, and the absymal quality of Timex Indiglo, are unacceptable.

Cool & functional
Color: Pink
Attractive watch. Simplistic, yet cannot understand everything without not having instructions. Watch did no come with instructions, which became hard to figure out all its functions.
