Popperini 17,778 Posted July 26, 2021 Hey hey, Just thought I'd mention that Timex emailed me this morning with a 30% off offer on some of their Peanuts cartoon watches. Use the code SAVE30 at checkout. It's allegedly a flash 2 day sale. (At which point, knowing my luck, it'll be followed by the SAVE70 sale...) As a result, I've finally just ordered their Marlin with Snoopy and Woodstock. Been eyeing it for ages but £240 always seemed a bit steep for a Timex with a cheap 21j movement. £168 was a bit more palatable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GingerApple 7,272 Posted July 26, 2021 I'll never fathom why grown men want a shit watch so long as it has a picture of Snoopy on it. You must really, really like Snoopy. I mean, I really like Liverpool, but I'm not going to wear this: 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Popperini 17,778 Posted July 26, 2021 I hate football and can’t understand why grown men would ever watch that shit. Oh wait I know why - because there’s no such thing as “grown men”. Saying that, I’d definitely wear that Liverpool watch for its kitsch value. Regarding the Timex, I just need a Snoopy watch to wear while my other Snoopy watch is undergoing a major long-term programme of essential improvements. However, the caveat to all this (which I probably should’ve mentioned in the OP) is that I fully expect to send the watch straight back when it arrives and I discover it’s the same atrociously poor quality as the last Timex I bought. But this one has Snoopy on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
