Timex Marlin Moonphase

I did not have a ‘proper’ dress watch yet.

I did not have a Moonphase watch.

I did not have a Timex.

I had a limited budget for this impulse buy.

Presenting the Timex Marlin Moonphase, the answer to all your questions*

The dial is beautiful in this salmon pinkish colour with the sunburst effect. The watch is also surprisingly comfortable.

The strap is a little crap but I was not expecting much for the price.

Setting the date is…. Interesting**

Overall I think it epitomizes Timex;

cheap and cheerful.

*if all your questions match the ones above

**if interesting means a little nonsensical, and still not having figured out if there is a way to change the day of the week without just forcing it to change by setting the time past midnight.

It’s honestly pretty good. A few little things, but for the price it is great. The design is fantastic too!

L2L is around 47/48mm they are a decent size. I was a little worried about the sizing, but it is a nice fit actually.

It really does not wear that big. My wrist is about 7’ for reference. All personal preference though of course

Yeaaah then it might be a little big. Maybe they’ll do a 38mm version at some point. This one certainly sold well enough to do so.

Awesome pick up. I too do not have a moonphase, salmon dial, or Timex, and also have a minimized budget at the time. However these were sold out by the time I clicked into the email. Really like the look of all of these. Looking forward to some follow up reviews after it's spent some time on the wrist of the early adopters.

I will for sure do a more in-depth review after some time on the wrist. Might see a few more wrist shots in the coming days as well lol.

So far so good, but only time will tell.

I am also sure there will be a restock and more colour variants in the future

The green was my second choice, it is gorgeous!

The dial kinda changes in the light between salmon pink and a shiny champagne. Very intriguing
