I have a bit of a love hate thing going on with Timex, This is a great looking model, discontinued now I think, but I love this dial type,
With most models I'm left thinking "if only it had...." something more, sapphire, a screw on case back etc etc
Some of their models are just crying out for a few tweaks to make them fantastic, but they still cut corners but still sell plenty I guess,

The model you show isn't the "B" model.
If the watch pictured had the "if it only hads" it would no longer be a 60 dollar watch, which is what draws many to these Timex models.
Love me a Timex watch. In fact I got my white dial Expedition on right now. Nice and cheap but still a great piece. #timex
Timex will sell you one with SS, sapphire, mechanical movement, etc., but it will cost more:

Thanks for that I edited the "B" out of the title, I take your point Timex do sell some cheaper watches but you would struggle to get that watch pictured for $60, the Re-issue quartz "Q" models for example and the M79 are silly money for what you are actually getting

This one has got me interested but £330 quid Ouch!
I picked up the MK1 Mechanical when it was on sale (50% off the $199 MSRP) last summer, with another 15% off coupon - so I paid all of $85 for a mechanical MK1 in stainless steel and acrylic... if you are patient, there are deals to be had.

Macy's had a flash sale last month with some Timex Q's and M79s at 1/2 price... if I see them again, I'll post here.
Nice, had one but moved it on
64.47 on Amazon.
I have a couple Q reissues and they are well made and worth the price as far as I'm concerned.

Well, that one has an automatic Miyota movement and a titanium case (rather than the tiny ladies Seagull ST6 and SS in the North Field Post).

I'm waiting to catch one of those on a good sale, mrsp seems a bit steep as much as I like my inexpensive timex watches.
