even in the timex community im known for being insane, my goal is one of everything spanning the late 40s to 80s when they went full quartz. ive been focusing on 60s/70s pieces and recently switched to earlier/later models.

ll put you on the list lol. i keep finding them for fellow collectors, usually in the wrong case and like ive said above with the wrong bezel. i can make up a good version for you with the exception of the bezels which are hard to come by.

commented on What are some quirks you look for in a watch? ·

if spending over 1k i want different case finishing, applied markings and a signed crown. NEVER quartz at that price.
