1975 Timex Mercury 16561 - M35 movement, modified case

coastwatch

In my first foret into vintage watch collecting on eBay, I accidentally bought a gold (color) watch. I generally don't wear gold, so in cleaning it up, I buffed off the gold color on the case, leaving the face alone, making the watch a sort of two-tone. An 18mm tan leather strap from BisonStrap ties it all together I think.
