$150.00 Timex

Thought I’d show what $150.00 USD buys. Hand wind Timex, don’t scoff, it keeps approximately + 7 seconds per 24 hours. That’s only + 1 off from COSC. I didn’t buy it to time a countdown launch to Mars. What it does do is tell the time quite adequately.

Nice classic looking watch - $250 from a Grey Dealer apparently!

Congrats! You know you can pop the back off and re-regulate. :)

Funnily enough a hand wind Timex that was about 40 years old was my first mechanical watch and still kept great time. Honestly I think it was more satisfying winding it than a Rolex. They don’t cost much, but they’re great watches.

Enjoy it. That model was too small for me, gifted to a relative.
