here in 2024 jus bought one for $70 in used near mint cond. Glad I "waited". LOL wasn't as into watches when they came out so i kinda just lucked up. The bracelet looks great but wears fairly stiff on smaller wrists since these bands have a sort of natural curve/size that they want to be at. Other than that i'm happy with mine. It was bought for the looks first, then reliability and it's got both of those with no problem. thanks for the vid.
If they could figure out how to get a mechanical movement in the original Q, they would have a winner. I don’t like the bigger size of the new one. Still, I like the direction they are going ! Keep it up Timex.
These are both fun watches and applaud Timex for releasing them...but I am old enough to remember these bracelets and I like the hair on my wrists 😂Thank you for a great review Rob😊
It’s great that Timex is making some interesting watches. But the automatic is priced to high fir what you get. I paid $299 for a Zelos Swordfish which is an amazing watch for the money and at $349 still a way better deal than the automatic Timex.
I own 5 Qs and the batman M79. I really like them all. I don't mind paying for less specs than other brands, the fact that it says Timex is worth it for me. They deserve the respect with the heritage they have behind them, plus the vintage vibe looks so great. I now finding myself wearing two watches because I have a hard time deciding on which color Q I'm going to wear for the day. Timex "We don't stop"! Keep it up!
Fun watches. I have the Q and really like it. To me the appeal of the watch was the retro look and just the pick up and go that the quartz gives you. I’m not interested in this automatic. Forget paying a premium, just wait.
Imho: Q Falcon Eye looks so much better. M79 and Q are decent watches for their prices. Although I would not pay $179 for the Q. Edit: The Navi XL Automatic seems forgotten. I like it much more than these two.
The auto Navi XL's design is really cool, specifically the hour hand. Just noticed they recently came up with 2 new colors... sucks that I missed out on the green one.
If the Q had the same exact dimensions as the 79, I would own one. I heard Timex is going to release another watch in the Fall. It's going to cause the same hysteria as the Q did. Have you heard anything about this Rob? Great review 👍
Great looking watches for sure. Timex gets the design details so right here in a way big companies aren’t “supposed” to know how to do. Their bizarre misstep isn’t the cheap movements or questionable MSRP. It’s that these _marquee_ models aren’t in front of non watch nerds at retailers who nevertheless feature far worse designs under their glass displays.
Timex design teams are killing it as is there marketing and restricting supply just enough for fomo. Now just improve the specs just a little and keep designing stuff like the case on the Georgio Galli and we will talk.
Used to follow this channel, but have since stopped. Just too unprofessional and lacklustre as a review channel. Miyota 8000 something movement? Bracelet is similar but I don't know? Don't know how many clicks the bezel has? And its across all his videos. If you want to review a watch at least bother to put in the effort to find out the details of the product.

Love the quartz it's a workhorse.
Esse Timex “batman” ficou muito bonito....👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I will echo other comments that the Falcon Eye really nails it .Yes I am a 70,s boy! Cheers.
Great video and sound advice Rob

Cool comparison. I've owned both and I think I honestly prefer the Q at it's price point

Wouldn't have got the Quartz but this auto i would have :)
Sorry. Am I the only one that is not feeling these new Timex’s? Good video as always sir. But these are just not for me.
Lug tò lug ?

Falcon Eye takes both in terms of design.
It's a real nice blue

Very Timely/not. I like them.
Does the bezel have a lot of play?
I'll answer, mine doesn't.
Great looking watches for sure. Timex gets the design details so right here in a way big companies aren’t “supposed” to know how to do.

I can't fathom using acrylic for non-cheapo watch in this day and age...
50m?!
Just looking at those bracelets makes my arm hairs hurt! Personally, I'd go for the Falcon Eye over one of these.
I have a lot of arm hair and I never had a problem with the Q or the M79.
Timex design teams are killing it as is there marketing and restricting supply just enough for fomo. Now just improve the specs just a little and keep designing stuff like the case on the Georgio Galli and we will talk.
Plz wear a….I wanna see how it looks on 7.5 wrist size….
I'm sorry, but I can't donate any more hair follicles
A kidney is $200k, im just sayin'.
🤣🤣🤣
I’m not having those straps . Look cheap as hell .
Q is nice, but these are both a bit overhyped.
I agree, just wait. I picked up my Q last Sept for list price. Only morons are paying the premium.

Thanks for watching. See ya tomorrow
Nice watches, to be sure......but not for me.
The bracelet is horrible. Pulls hairs really badly. I don't know why Timex is using it again.
First ;)
