Timex (1978)

I've been after a Timex for a while - and although I like the look of the newer models, vintage felt like the only way to go. So I've gone with this 36mm hand wind 1978 model with a gorgeous burgundy dial. They actually re-released this fairly recently but in 40mm. Look at that big ol' domed crystal! I paid just £50 for this with its orignal box.

It really is in amazing shape!

In 1978 that was an old fashioned looking watch. No wonder it is so appealing.

Love the look of the old  timex watches. Personally the sizes are too small for me. but glad you found your watch. Enjoy

Got me thinking to look for a '78 Timex too! 😎
