Discovering the Timex Marlin Jet: A High-End Collector's Take on Affordable Space-Age Elegance

Watches needn’t be expensive or high horology to interest me. And yet, as someone who owns some (what I consider to be) high horology watches (which are certainly expensive), I’m pleasantly surprised and delighted at my latest watch purchase.

The NEW Timex Marlin Jet Automatic looks good and feels good. It adds to my daily dilemma, in an already crowded field: what watch to wear?

And it also leaves me reconsidering and redefining what I expect from watches, let alone from budget-friendly timepieces.

In this review, I share my views on the Marlin Jet’s design, features, and overall value.

From its unique space-age aesthetics to the practicality of its design, I explore what makes the Timex Marlin Jet stand out, for me.

This watch is absolutely STUNNING ... particularly for a child of the 1960's, jet-age, retro space nerd like myself!

Too bad it doesn't appear to be available here in Canada?
