Timex MK1 Mechanical

Recommended Posts

Couldn’t resist this. Timex MK1 Mechanical, a simple good looking watch competitively priced. From the Timex Archive series of watches, this is reminiscent of the “camper” from the 80s and “sprite” from the 70s.

 

Case: Stainless steel

Dial: Green

Dimensions: 36mm

Water Resistance: 50 meters

Movement: 20 jewel hand wound

Strap: Canvas, quick-release

How's the quality? It looks pretty good in your pics. The last Timex I bought, I sent it back because the overall standard of the thing was so cheap and nasty.

Quality is good. Nicely finished 36mm stainless steel case and a well printed dial. Check out the serifs on the numerals. Lume is nothing amazing, that doesn’t bother me though. I think the acrylic crystal is great, gives the watch a period charm. The 20j movement is hacking, another plus. Although at this price point it won’t be anything amazing, a Seagull perhaps. I will check accuracy and power reserve over the next few days. Strap is robust and the quick release useful. However I’ve put mine on a simpler one. So far so good!

Very nice wristwatch. Prefer it with the new strap but both suit the dial well!

Timex always have nice looking watches, the Chronograph versions are also nice.
