Timex watches are proof that a great watch does not have to be ultra-expensive.I get so disappointed when I open an article about vintage watches only to be shown styles that costs thousands of dollars - gimme a break. This model dates back to the very late 1970's and runs just as well today as it did 45 years ago.Think about it: cars, televisions, computers don't even last that long.This is an automatic style - so it gets it's energy from the movement of your wrist.As you go about your day, your movement winds the watch's rotor - giving it power.You may wind it to give it an extra boost as well.If you are not wearing it every day, you can give it a short wind to get it going and it will regain power as you begin moving again.A very clean dial with just minimal wear to the crystal.A slimmer case design measuring 35mm x 40mm with very minor wear.I swapped the original band for this handsome blue suede. Only 1 available Please Note: Vintage items are shipped directly by Peter and will not ship with any other items on your order.Please allow at least 3-5 days for your order to be shipped.Every effort will be made to ship your piece even earlier. I have always had a thing for old watches. There is something about the character of an old watch that defines "Old School Cool" for me. I think it's a lot cooler to discover a beautiful old watch than to just walk into a store and buy a new one. It actually inspires me to see them faithfully keep time year after year.And I love imagining the life a watch had before it came into my hands. It's beautiful to know that some things never go out of style. When I was growing up, my dad took great care of his two boys but he never splurged on anything for himself. But the one thing that he loved was a great watch. I must have inherited that love from him.Since Blade + Blue is really a 'Thank-You' letter to my father for all that he taught us about being men, I couldn't be more excited and proud to share this collection of beautiful found watches with you.
