- First released in 1979, our original diver-inspired Q Timex gave a new generation a modern Timex® watch with quartz technology. A true reissue, we recreated every detail-including the true-to-the-era woven stainless-steel bracelet, functional battery hatch, rotating top ring, luminescent paint and ticking inside is a modern quartz movement.

I said coke bezel, meaning Pepsi. My bad😎👍 Really cool watch!!
in the dark it does look like a Coke bezel. Maybe you have given them a new release!
shit happens man :)
I got lucky, signed up for a Timex notification when they got more. As soon as I got email, I bought one. It arrived last weekend. I love it.
It's a really nice vintage inspired watch!! Congratulations, and enjoy 😎👍
Brings back wonderful memories of my youth.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for tuning in!!
Wearing mine as I'm watching! Received it last week and it has not left my wrist!
It's a very cool watch!😎👍
do you shower with it on?
@@julianmaster I do not, I wouldn't shower with anything less than 100m, but that's just me.
The aesthetics are so fricken cool! Absolutely cool!
Absolutely! Cheers Ray 😎👍
Affordables can rule !! Nice work again OFD....I was born December 1970 so should have bought one of these first time around but I went LCD..crazy times.
Cheers brother!! I'm Cinco de mayo 😁👍👊
12/70 here, too. I had a Casio calculator and soon after, in maybe ‘82 or ‘83, a Swatch.
All watches in the world should have this external compartment for the battery. Excelent video, Best regards from Brasil.
I absolutely agree! Cheers Mario 😁👍
@@OFD Cheers Aron ! 😀
It is a good looking watch and it did look great on ur wrist!!! I wish it was an automatic though.
You scored one! Cool piece 👍👍
#onloanfromabro 😎👍😁
Great video, I enjoyed this a lot and being born in 1979... it makes me want one for some odd reason.
Great choice!!
Thanks for the good review i had one of these watches in the late 70s 1979 or 80's
Finally got mine a couple weeks ago when they became available again. Apparently they sold out within an hour after I ordered mine! Super awesome watch so I can understand why.
Timex is doing great things lately and I own many. This might be my favorite.
Aron, it's actually a Seiko quartz movement (very unusual for Timex) and probably a step above their usual but all of their watches are very reliable and durable as you know (most made in Philippines but with very high QC standards).
Excellent information! Thanks for the heads up. Great watches from Timex as usual !
Looks great the battery hatch is clever. Roll on 10k subs, you deserve it 😎
😁🙏🙏Thanks!
You’re turning 50 next year. Time for another epic piece.
I was 14 in ‘79. I win. Or do I lose? 🤔🤣 I love that slinky bracelet. Nice review.
🤣👍 Either way brother!! We're both still around!!
Nice video !!!
Thank you!!😎👍
I just received two of them in the mail yesterday. I hate how, when I try to set the time exactly, the minutes hand shifts when I push back in the bezel. It's a shitter, no doubt, but it's a fun and cheap one. I bought one out of curiosity and one as a gag gift. I doubt I will ever wear it.
Very cool timex 👍😁
👊😎👍
brill watch would love to get one.... cheers
Really nice Watch...There’s a Similar version sold through American Eagle that’s like 80.00 with a Nylon Strap and Is Indiglo.Also has a Crown Guard,But the Red part of the bezel is only 1/4 not 1/2.The Reissue is Def Sold out...and seems a bit pricy at 350.00ish.Great Unboxing,TY.
Need to check that out!! Thanks for the heads up 😎👍😁
It's a shame the seconds hand doesn't hit the markers 😔
Mine does most of the time....it sometimes hits off by about the width of the seconds hand.
Mine does too.
for $180 you think they could have the seconds hand place so it doesn't stop between seconds. or give a $25 certificate to take it into a watchmaker to have that fixed.
I hear you!👍👍
I think when watchmakers put in a crystal they have a certain idea in mind because each Crystal has its benefits and drawbacks there's things that are acrylic crystal is better at then a mineral crystal or a sapphire crystal and likewise with the rest it's a really interesting thing
Great comments Blain!! Thank you 😎👍👍
How can I get in contact with your friend about the watch stand? Would love to get one in for review!
I'll let him know you're interested 😎👍 Cheers man!
@@OFD thanks dude!
I like the copper color watch stand. Where can I get it?
It's going to be available at my 10k subscriber giveaway 😁👍 Stay tuned. They are custom 1 off pieces!!
Great vid bro! I just done my unboxing of this one too. Such a cool watch!
Awesome. Heading over to check it out!!😎👍👊
Great video!
😁🙏
Not only better seconds hand tracking, but you think it would have more water resistance for the $
How long does it stay luminous? I have a watch that’s luminous but it only for 30 minutes. After that you can’t tell time in the dark ):
Well, i didn't really measure the full length. But good question. I don't think all night, but the heaviest lume application I've seen from Timex. Cheers 😎👍
Great review Aron, thx for sharing ! Love that watch stand, wish he sold that oak model. Let me ask, my caliper just crapped out, what caliper are you using here ? 🛩
Pittsburgh from Harbor Freight 😎👍👊
Aron Dunlap-OFD Watch Channel Thanks ! 👍
Looking Good👍👍👍👍
Thanks buddy!! Really appreciate Tim letting me open this one up! The Watch Stand is going to be a great giveaway 😎👍👊
OFD, why do you check-in but never check-out?
Another blue and red bezel watch with a 10 cent bracelet. I don't get it. The instantaneous date change is epic though. Lol. 12 hour bezel is duel time. Cheers
I get what you're saying, but I like the way the colors split the numbers, and the bracelet seems cheap but isn't exactly run-of-the-mill. I think overall it's got a nice retro aesthetic. If I'm lucky enough to get the chance to get it at retail, I'll be glad I've put off getting a Pepsi watch to this point.
@@cobbler88. There are other colors than blue and red was more my point. I don't get it, cheers
It’s a Seiko movement, FYI.
👍👍
The seconds hand doesn’t lignup with the minute marks. Puts me off
Cedar Canoe mine hits perfectly on each index. I think it’s hit or miss as with most inexpensive quartz. I got lucky to be able to pick mine out in a store.
A 250 USD watch shouldn't be like that. It may still count as a relatively enexpensive watch, but if a 30 dollar Casio can hit the markers properly, I can't see why it should be a matter of the price tag.
total turn off. i agree.
The movement is from Seiko
Wow, really!?
Aron Dunlap-OFD Watch Channel Seiko PC33. It’s inexpensive it very accurate. After 2 months I’ve gained 1 second, so .5 a month.
Good review.People need to give a thumbs up or down.Almost 700 views and 88 thumbs up? I got lucky.I heard on facebook that the Timex site would have more at 9:30am on Sept 13.I waited until 12:20pm to order one...minutes later they were sold out again.
It's crazy how fast they are going!! Thanks for tuning in 😎👍👊
Pepsi , No Coke . Darn, I'm 8 yrs. Older & now I'm sad . 😭 Even got to peel off the Plastic . It's no wonder those sold out . LOL
Cheers bro!👊😁👍
it's a little bit of a shame that doing such a limited edition and highly prized retro model that they didn't make it in Japan but I'm going to be honest these days you see a lot of nice pieces coming out of Hong Kong and China and they've come up with their own substantial movements and they've even been able to identically replicate a submariner movement so China is now a contender I suppose in the watch industry and I'm not too sure about it but within the past decade I've almost given up on expecting to watch to be made somewhere else unless I specifically know that it is. I have kind of a philosophy on China now that I didn't have a long time ago and it is that they will build to any quality that you pay them to build to if you pay them to build crap they will but if you pay them to build good quality equipment they will and I learned this through power tools in there construction trade watching my american-made tools become Chinese and realizing that the Chinese tools are just as good because their pay there being paid a lot of money and then if you stepped down the ladder with Chinese tools you can get not such good quality tools so I don't put China in one box anymore
You and I are the same age :)
1970 brother!!👊😎👍
I'm a Cinco de mayo baby 5/5/70
@@OFD The best year of the century !! :D
To expensive for a quartz. I heard it comes with acrilyc.
They must be nuts.
Definitely acrylic. Holding true to the original 😎👍 They are nuts enough to have sold out like 3 times since release 😁😁
@@OFD the issue here is the price. Pricy for that features.
I heard is selling well, now all are the 'vintage people' band i fear.
Nuts? Sold out constantly!
Seiko movt
Great $50 watch, except it’s not
a 8 dollar seiko quartz movement,diver style,hair pulling bracelet,chintzy build quality,no ISO rating.Hmmmm,get a 009 or turtle for the same price.
John Adams where can I get a 009 or Turtle for $179? I’m in!
Robert Sanchez ever try the watchrecon site,have seen lightly used Seiko divers for excellent prices.
It amazes me that people still try to find an objective value to something as futile as a watch.
Do you think there's 30K worth of work and material on a Rolex or a Patek ?
Do you realize how cheap it is to make a mass produced watch such as an Skx ? Why not selling it 100 dollars and still make a margin? Because demand shows that it can be sold at 300 as it is right now. Same reason for Q Timex. It's a business where you can litterally sell a diver watch to people who will never dive in their entire life, and yet they buy it BECAUSE it is a diver watch.
It is ruled by supply and demand, and demand is mostly ruled by emotions and concepts. There is no such thing as a " logical " watch enthusiast in the first place.
Logic advises you to not buy a watch at all.
Not worth $179 bucks. It felt cheap to me and low water resistants plus a plastic crystal. I personally wouldn't pay $80 for it. Too many higher quality and less expensive watches out there.
Don't jump on the hype train an overpay for one of these... It's a piece of junk and barely with the RRP
I understand the sentiment for the price point, but I wear a couple nice watches now and then and can safely comment this watch is not "junk". Cheers David 👍😎
