Todd Snyder x Timex

That looks awesome, though I suspect there will be lots of hate based on brand alone.

Timex or Todd Snyder?

Timex, lots of dislike for Timex in the watch community.

Finally some straight end links! Great case shape and two tone, but does it come in any colors except black?

Having QUARTZ written bigger than the branding is a power move.

Yes. I find that strange on here (given what gets love on here)

I think it looks pretty good and price is OK. If you can get with the discount that popped up for me I would say is a solid offer.

When you're the "other" watch brand in America, you don't need to advertise. 😂

Agreed.

But only in the uninformed newbies to the hobbys minds. I haven';t seen too many veteran collectors dump on Timex. Most of the forums I visit have the utmost respect for the brand.

Agreed.

I think it comes down the difference between those who started wearing watches before the internet, and those who got into watches in the age of influencers.

Influencers dump on Timex a lot because it's a "mall" or "department store" brand, but Timex was in those places because people bought them when watches were a necessity. Similar to Citizen and a few other brands as well... It's always been "cool" to like things outside the mainstream, and Timex was about as mainstream as a watch brand could be.

It looks like a neat little Timex.

The bracelet looks like it was repurposed from someone’s eBay job lot of salvage watch parts.

x10000 and to @WristCounselor while maybe not the exact same, I have thoroughly enjoyed my Timex x Todd Snyder Roulette Military. Even got to buy in person at the flagship when I was visiting NYC. Luv the Timex x Todd Snyder collabs.

Yes, less so in here but it is sadly still around.

That’s a nice clean retro design. I’d like to see it offered in a lighter dial color, but well executed, as I see it.

Thanks for sharing!

One of my fav brands - Todd Snyder

I hate that the description tries to assert that this watch is in any way reminiscent of a “Goldfinger” Bond watch, but otherwise I like it a lot haha. 22mm lug width is a bit of a shame though

Groovy. It would pair pretty well with an Earth-toned leisure suit and some sideburns. But for that price I would've expected at least a mineral crystal.

Hey Kristian, thanks man, I learned something new today.

Yes, I remember those grandfather clocks. They felt very regal.

I’m loving the vintage releases from timex, including this one. Can’t wait to see what else they produce this year

Wait. The avocado green dial one? It’s sold out? That was a nice one

Right?

Yeah. This one is sold out on the Tom Snyder site.

It’s a nice color combo

Todd Snyder is one of the few fashion houses that can do this right. Their collaborations are almost always tastefully done. I think the watch looks fantastic. I would prefer endlinks that meet the case but it's a vibe I can appreciate.

I don't see anything wrong with what he said or his experience with Timex, everyone's experiences are different and watches mean different things to different people.

I think the acrylic was used on purpose.

More like an original & gives it some distortion at an angle.

There was nothing wrong with it, it was just a recent example of what I was talking about.

People are free to think/say what they want, just as I am free to use what is said to reinforce my point.

As I said in the post you quoted, Timex gets uniquely singled out for being put down as cheap, while Casio gets a pass for being equally, if not more, cheap feeling.

You'd be surprised by how many people I know criticize Casio lol

Timex are making some really nice stuff at the moment

Looks similar to the Timex Q 1978 reissue, at least in shape. I always liked that watch, but didn't want to spend what they wanted on it. Sometimes Timex can feel a little overpriced. I'll have to Google to see who Todd Snyder is.
