Random Watches #1
Seiko Big Date SUR 323 I’m going to start doing something new. Instead of so many posts about series of watches or multiple watches, I’m going to try to just get in quicker posts about individual watches I like. This may allow me to write about more watches faster without getting bogged-down in too much…

Timex Weekender Vintage
A Slice of the Big Weekender Pie Ten years ago, Timex was doing things differently. “Aren’t we all”, you might say?Well, yes. I suppose we all, even corporations, need to keep moving forward. I keep going back to the pre-COVID days because the watch market place was so different. Timex used to have fewer releases…

Nixon Scout & Friends
Can Watch Enthusiasts discuss Lifestyle Watches? With all the watch watching, researching, shopping I have done over the past ten years, I have still managed to miss Nixon. All of a sudden I saw a Nixon I liked, then was off on a tangent. I was never a skateboarder, a snowboarder or a surfer, but…

Timex Mk1 40mm Auto
The Mk1s are back after five years When I saw the email from Timex about the release of some new Mk1s, I was on it. You see, I have a soft spot for all things Mk1. The Mk1 line was a lot of things; a military watch, a fashion watch, a people’s watch. It sort…

Timex Allied LT
Vintage military twist on the Scout I’ve been holding back on posting about the Allied LT series. At first I was trying to get a grip on the basic Allied line up as well as the more limited Archive Allied group so didn’t want to muddle things even more. Now that the dust has settled…

Timex Archive Acadia
The Plastic Case Alternative Time to get writing again as well as back on the topic of Timex. Its been a busy summer, particularly August, so I have not been starting enough new posts! I have been thinking a lot about Timex watches recently as you might have noticed in my last post, but also…

Timex Mk1 Collections Part 3
A Unique Set of MK1s: Archive Pioneers With this post I want to complete the final part of my attempt to outline the various 40mm and 42mm MK1 types that Timex released from roughly 2017 to 2019. In Part 1, I covered the Aluminum MK1s. In Part 2, the Steel Mk1s. There are some other…

Timex Mk1 Collections Part 2
Full Steel Ahead In Part 1 of My Timex MK1 posts I covered the origins of the MK1 and covered the various styles of Aluminum case Mk1s. Here I will try to get my arms around the 40mm 3-hand and 42mm chronographs that make up the Steel collection. As I mentioned in the earlier post,…
