My watch journey started when my best friend passed away in 2020. He loved his watches and his mum passed on his collection to me when we finally got to meet up after lockdown. The one he wore the most was his Timex Marlin, he bloody loved that watch. I have it mounted on ny bedside table so when I wake up i see it, I try and wear his watches as much as I can. The Marlin has grown on me and is now my firm favourite, it has kick started my obsession and im sure hes grinning from on high as I continually hide from my wife what I spend as I expand his collection 😂.
I love the “Expedition north field” and the “Q reissue”, not only because of the excellent value for money, but also because they resemble two of the most beloved watches that my dad used to wear almost every day before passing away, and he was the big reason why I got into watches in the first place. 🙌🏼
Seeing this Timex GMT 'Pepsi' watch brought back a flood of cherished memories for me. My grandfather used to have a watch just like this, and it instantly reminded me of him and my childhood. He was a proud truck driver for the Pepsi bottling company back in the 70s. I remember sitting by the window, eagerly waiting for him to come home after his long hauls, always with a smile and a story to tell. This watch symbolizes not just time, but the countless moments of love, hard work, and the unbreakable bond we shared. Thank you for bringing back such beautiful memories. Winning this watch collection would mean the world to me, as it would be like having a piece of my grandfather with me always.
Love the channel have for a long time. The Timex Q brings back good memories of when I was a kid love that watch. My Dad wore the Q. Very generous of you to do a give away!!!
Timex has its own aestetic and ideas and that's what I admire the most in their offer! Affordable watches with a genuine original touch. The T80 was my first non-casio digital watch I bought, the greenish/reflective background mesmerize me every time! I sold a couple, I stil own a transparent case/white face version. And the Q... I forget this watch, until now. That gold tone, that bracelet... What a great bunch of watches! For the choice from the shop, I think I'll try on wrist the Timex Q Celestial, it's a good chance to wear brilliants without being unnecessarily blingy! So much going on with that dial... Thanks for the new video Russ, and for the chance to win those budget beauties!
I like my TIMEX Expedition T46681. It is the most honest and practical watch I have ever had. Good price, stainless steel case, mineral crystal, day-date, 100 m water resistance and of course Indiglo. So many advantages for so little money
Fantastic show. The Timex I would like to win is the Q Pepsi Bezel reissue. I am 68 years old and it reminds me of the watch I had during high school that I wore to tennis practice and to the drive in restaurant afterwards. Thanks for your insight into the watch hobby.
The silver Timex Q with the blue bezel and dial is 100% my favorite watch on jomashop. Such a damn good looking watch and I don’t have a dive watch in the collection yet so it would be a perfect addition. Love the integrated bracelet and retro goodness styling. Bring back the 70s!!
The Timex M79 Automatic caught my eyes. I love the color of the bezel, it's black and blue. It compliments the black dial and the red seconds hand also pops up. I think it's gonna look good on my wrist. I love it!
What a great 4 watch collection MWC! I’ve got a real soft spot for Timex. They’re almost like an American hybrid combination of Seiko and Casio . They offer fantastic value for money, pretty much any type of complication you could reasonably expect and brand heritage out the wazoo! What’s not to love? Good luck to everyone entering the competition!
Thanks for highlighting these watches, Timex has been killing it the past couple of years and enthusiasts who haven't heard need to know! That Expedition North field watch is an absolute bargain! I can't decide between the Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial (more of a two-tone, as the outer ring where the hour numerals are is black), and the Expedition Pioneer Chronograph Quartz ani-digi. Looks rugged, tough and purposeful.
The Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial Men's Watch is my favorite. Classy and fresh but still oldschool enough to go with an Iron Maiden tshirt from 1986 and som spiked leather on the other wrist. Keep up the good work.
Timex is one of the best, I grew up 20 mins from where Timex was born (originally the Waterbury Clock Company). My great grandmother worked and retired from there.
The Heritage Waterbury Chronograph by Timex indeed offers a nod to classic watch designs, much like the revered Omega Speedmaster. With its quartz movement and distinctive blue dial, it provides a budget-friendly option for those who appreciate the timeless style of high-end chronographs. While it may not have the same horological prestige as the Speedmaster, known for its space exploration heritage, the Waterbury stands out with its own charm and reliable functionality, making it a great choice for everyday wear. Whether you're a watch enthusiast or simply looking for a stylish timepiece, the Heritage Waterbury is a testament to Timex's commitment to quality and affordability.
Timex Ironman was an everyday GoTo for the first 15 years in the military. I would beat them until they died and I couldn’t read the numbers anymore. They would see all types of climates desert, tropical rain forest, extreme cold and hot, humid, and keep working through. Even replaced the battery a couple times in each of the ones I had instead of buying a new one. Since getting into watch collecting my style has changed some. I still like the military style watches and the blue Expedition one you showcased is a great looking watch. Right up my alley. I actually went to Jomashop and purchased an Expedition with a 50% off code because of your video. That is probably my new favorite. Thank you.
For the Timex watches on Jomashop, I would have to say my favorite is the Expedition North manual wind. You were spot on with thos one! Keep up the great work on this channel. I watched this episode with my 8-year-old for bedtime tucks. The great energy and fun you have is getting her into watches. 😊
Easily my favourite is the milano XL quartz. Such a classic classy look. My beautiful fiance loves timex watches on me and has bought many a watch for me on my birthdays. A favourite out of my whole collection even though its the cheapest is my q falcon eye. What a watch! Love the show mate. Keep up the good work 👏
The Timex Marlin Jet is SUCH a beautiful piece; modern technology in a tastefully updated vintage design is truly a masterclass in how to do it right. Definitely on my to purchase list! Thanks for the great videos!
I want to know too. I really want to buy one of this Timex but I won't do it just in case I win the giveaway. I'm just hanging between buying or keep waiting
That expedition north field mechanical is an absolute spec monster for the price! So good to see that timex are still flying the flag for the budget conscious watch buyer. My fave going into this video was the OG Timex Q which I snagged for a bargain on eBay a few years back - but having seen the gold version in this video, it’s just next level 70s vibes! New fave!
The Expedition North Field looks and feels amazing. You can combine it with a lot of stuff and still look fancy or casual. Thank you for the amazing work on your videos. And huge thank you for the casio videos. I'm now owning a big collection of them because of you. And it's all worth it. Thank you and keep up with the quality videos.
Of the choices on Jomashop, I have to say that Pepsi GMT is my current favorite. I love the colors & I don't have a GMT. So cool of you to do this. Love your channel. Keep up the outstanding work!
The favorite watch TIMEX Q Reissue Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch, although I was confused between Timex Q and Timex GMT but but butttt TIMEX Q's old gold colour and the old look design just beautiful, love the bracelet of the watch, it reminds me of my dad's watch....... Love the TIMEX Q
Russ, for me it's the Q Timex TW2U61900, blue dial , silver case and bracelet. Very similar with the last one in this show, but with more classic color choices. This 4 watches collection is hot. Great show again.
Thanks for the video! My favorite is simple - for some reason, I lean towards the blue dial Expedition that you showed in the video. It’s been years since I’ve owned a hand wind watch - the last one I had was a Timex! I’ve never been to “Jomashop” before and was surprised by all the brands offered! I’ll go back there soon!
Expedition North Field Hand Wind Blue - I have a friend who is getting married, and this would be a perfect gift for him. He has been looking for his first watch and loves the 38mm size and is drawn to blue dials. Additionally, being a legacy brand and a watch that he can hand wind I think it would be perfect for him. Love the channel!
I actually just fell in love with the Waterbury Quartz Pink Dial. It's a bit blingy and out there but to me it's the perfect summers watch. Could go well with a linnen shirt or shorts, or with a light blue, grey or even green suit to the office. I didn't knew I needed a watch with a pink dial, but here I am... :)
MK1 Quartz Beige Dial TW2R96800 for me. It's a field watch, which I need, stainless steel case, great legibility and Indiglo, I'd upgrade to a suitable bracelet, and its one of the few analog watches the wife would want- Indiglo is a must! great vid as always MWC!
From the website, I would go with M79 Automatic (bracelet). And of course I love the Expedition North Field Hand Wind watch. It reminds me about my first watch, given to me by my grandfather long time ago. There is something special about the interaction between the watch owner and the hand wind watch, I still remember the feeling of winding my watch up every night before bed.
My favorite is the Waterbury Traditional. It's unique, easy to read, has day and date complications, and the green seconds hand adds a nice bit of color to spice it up.
Hi, Timex is one of my favorite watch brands and it doesn't receive much positive attention on TH-cam, just harsh criticism of questionable models. I was pleased to see a video highlighting the positive aspects of Timex. In recent years, the brand has made many hits like the Expedition North line, the metallic T-80s, the Q Reissue, and their timeless classics like the Ironman and Weekender. From the store, I would choose the Standard Peanuts Snoopy Christmas watch because in my country, the Snoopy Weekender models are very rare and cost double or even triple what they do in retail in the northern hemisphere. The other more popular models are available at more reasonable prices.
The expedition chronograph. I cant say exactly why but i always end up looking and staring at it from watch stores and for a very long time now. it almost like it speaks to me. Wife wouldn't allow me to buy another watch since i already got one. you're still lucky with your wife 😅
With or without a giveaway, one thing is sure, the "what the wife said" segment is becoming my favorite part of your videos. And by the way, the Northfield Expedition is my favorite...
Timex was my first wrist watch. I still have it even though the battery died long ago. Right now one of my favorites is the expedition north mechanical because it’s such an honest little watch. Love the connection between watch and wearer
One of my closest friends introduced me to watches with a orient automatic. He had a magnificent watch box that spanned from casio and to seiko and some expensive brands I can't quite recall. He's in the hospital with sepsis and a cellulitis case. His watch collection was recently lost in a fire at his home. This would be a wonderful start to getting a good collection going.
My first watch, in the mid 1980's was a Timex Playskool collaboration. It was meant to help kids learn how to tell time on an analog watch, it was a red rectangle with a digital screen and a bright yellow dial analog watch. I wish I still had it. Since that watch I grew up with Timex's and still have a few. Im strongly considering picking up the Q Reissue Quartz blue is the closest to a Timex I had in college.
Got to be the Navi XL Auto Black. I like the Field look and love how the hr hand circles the 24hr markers 👌Thanks MWC for highlighting more affordable watches, love your vibe and videos 👍🏻💯
I agree that the Expedition North Field watch is an amazing value and my fave on the Jomashop site (for Timex watches). Seriously, where else are you going to find a watch with those specs at that price. I'm not normally a Timex guy at all, but I have to give credit where credit's due and that watch is truly a steal for the price. If someone is new to watch collecting that truly would be a no-regret watch to start with, plus it's a great size at 38mm. Thanks for the reviews Russ! Thanks Jomashop!
MWC! For me, it's the Timex Expedition North Sierra Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch. I love it's legibility, quartz reliability, and the dimensions are perfect: 40mm case and a strap-a-holic 20mm lugwidth! Let's go!!!!
The Waterbury Legacy with the blue dial for me. Fluted bezel hints at the design of a Datejust just enough without going full homage. Great video, thank you MWC👍🏻
The Expedition North Field Hand Wind Blue Dial is my favorite. I've always been drawn to that field watch style and I don't have one in blue. I'm also a sucker for Indiglo which is why I still enjoy wearing my two Timex Weekenders (one white, one black).
I had a Timex in Grad School that received more compliments than any watch I've ever owned. Regarding those on Jomashop, you can't go wrong with the Mk1 Chronograph Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch. It's a real beauty!
My first Timex was an expedition, always loved those. But the Navi Xl Quartz White Dial Men's Watch really does it for me from those on offer on Jomashop. Love that skeleton Monacle style hour hand that encircles the 13 to 24 hour markers on the inner track.....very cool.
The Timex Field Mechanical is my favorite because it checks all of the boxes in my perfect watch. Great movement, sapphire glass, thin wearable case, 100m water resistance and my FAVORITE dial from Vietnam Era military issue watches!! AWESOME!! I would LOVE to win the collection!!
My favorite Timex avalilable at Jomashop is the Heritage Waterbury Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial Men's Watch, it looks so elegant, it seems it goes with a lot of outfits and it looks way more expensive than it is...its a must for a watch collection and I would love to see it on my wrist
Fell in love with the Waterbury Legacy Quartz Blue Dial. Elegant with classic tone. The clasp doesn't seems like pulling that much hair too 😂. Great shout out for Timex, MWC!
The Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial Men's Watch will be my perfect pick from Jomashop because of its striking sector dial makes it stand apart. It can be used when dressed up or on more casual occasions. The bracelet is surprisingly a mix of brushed and polished surfaces, making it look like a big deal!
You can never go wrong with Timex. I like the Heritage Waterbury Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial. It’s just elegant and lets people know you mean business. Love your vids man, keep it up.
Timex Q reissue - because I love the vintage style with the integrated bracelet. Ways good to have a quartz in the collection's also to pick up and have it already set and ready to go.
A day-to-go watch is definitely the Tissot Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial Men's Watch The blue color of the dial has that classical vibe, which makes my eye enticed by it. The rose gold colour and the blue colour really blend in well for me. On top of that BLUE TEXTILE STRAP! Very magnificent for me.
My favorite would be the MK1 Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch Item No. TW2R97000, because I like the style and how it looks with the black dial, gunmetal steel case and that brown leather strap makes the watch pop. Great channel and great video!
The Timex Field Mechanical is my absolute favorite watch of Timex. The design is very simplistic but the watch looks great. And the price is ridiculous low. Just a great watch :) . Kind regards from germany ☺
My favourite newish Timex is the Q 3 time zone chronograph. Not only looks fantastic but being Irish and living in Australia, having a few different timezones on my wrist are essential! Thanks for another excellent video by the way 😊
My fav is the expedition north field hand wind in the blue dial it’s superb and very simple. The strap is great and looks great value and quality for the price overall!
I really like the allied LT with the grey dial. The orange accents on the hands against the grey dial with black numbers just really works for me. Plus that textured finish to the bezel gives it a really unique look.
Has to be the timex Q reissue Quartz Blue . Love a day date and love the old nostalgia braclet. Like you said everybody's dad or grandad had a watch with one of those braclets. ❤
Great picks! My personal favorite is their Peanuts collab watch with an astronaut Snoopy on the dial, I just love how playful and fun that timepiece is!
For me, it's the Classic Chronograph in blue. It was the first watch I ever got on my first trip to the US, in New York, and it holds a special place in my heart because of that. But I've also received so many compliments on it because it's such a simple, elegant watch. I see that in the current version the dial is a little more cluttered, and they've changed the crown to an onion-shaped one. But if I ever lost mine, I'd be more than 100% sure I'd buy it again! The Indiglo, the quick adjustment hour hand, the typographies of the dial (especially the numerals),... I don't know, it's a model that might not attract attention at first, but it's a strap monster and for today it is, and will be, one of my favourites in my collection forever. Wishing you all a great day! :)
I always liked the Waterbury collection more than anything else. I own one, the Legacy with an orange dial and the ticking will annoy you at night...it's loud but fun. I've got my eye on the Waterbury TW2V49800. I've never had a watch with an inner rotating bezel. Cheers.
Amazing models. My favorite from their website is the Marlin Automatic because my father used to own one in the 80s and it looks very similar, with a modern twist. I would love the 4-watch collection. Thanks.
1st, thank you for Featuring Timex. It is an incredible brand with a rich history, however, is not mentioned much by larger creators. 2nd for me my favorite is the Timex Q for some of the reasons your wife mentioned(ironically). The Q is so distinctly Timex that it makes me love it even more. It’s not trying to be something that it is not like Rolex or Omega it is a Quartz Timex and proud of it
My watch journey started when my best friend passed away in 2020. He loved his watches and his mum passed on his collection to me when we finally got to meet up after lockdown. The one he wore the most was his Timex Marlin, he bloody loved that watch. I have it mounted on ny bedside table so when I wake up i see it, I try and wear his watches as much as I can. The Marlin has grown on me and is now my firm favourite, it has kick started my obsession and im sure hes grinning from on high as I continually hide from my wife what I spend as I expand his collection 😂.
It’s wonderful you have that connection to your late friend and his beloved Timex
@@thehappywristchannelThank you! They're a constant reminder and the kids ask loads of questions which means I get to tell all our war stories 😂.
What the wife said is the main reason I keep coming back to your videos, absolute class
Yes! This was one of the best installments of What the wife said😂
Timex MK1. The watch worn by McGyver.
Yes it's highly relatable 😅
Ha, she doesn't hold back.
Need that perspective. I mean ill still wear my badass ugly af watch. But i appreciate the input.
Timex are the only brand keeping the "analog with a backlight" dream alive. Big ups to indiglo. I wish they put it on all their watches.
I miss the Casio Super Illuminator :(
Only works for quartz watches, sadly. Makes sense why on many of the watches that don't have Indiglo, either heritage or lack of a battery.
agreed
I love the “Expedition north field” and the “Q reissue”, not only because of the excellent value for money, but also because they resemble two of the most beloved watches that my dad used to wear almost every day before passing away, and he was the big reason why I got into watches in the first place. 🙌🏼
I am sooo glad you highlighted these. Timex is still making watch prices livable
Seeing this Timex GMT 'Pepsi' watch brought back a flood of cherished memories for me. My grandfather used to have a watch just like this, and it instantly reminded me of him and my childhood. He was a proud truck driver for the Pepsi bottling company back in the 70s.

This watch symbolizes not just time, but the countless moments of love, hard work, and the unbreakable bond we shared. Thank you for bringing back such beautiful memories. Winning this watch collection would mean the world to me, as it would be like having a piece of my grandfather with me always.
The snoopy is great but I don’t know why I keep falling back and loving the Q’s! The gold and black is so nice
Love the channel have for a long time. The Timex Q brings back good memories of when I was a kid love that watch. My Dad wore the Q. Very generous of you to do a give away!!!
I personally love the Timex Marlin Jet Automatic. It's so clean and yet has so much class and character, truly a work of art.
Timex has its own aestetic and ideas and that's what I admire the most in their offer! Affordable watches with a genuine original touch. The T80 was my first non-casio digital watch I bought, the greenish/reflective background mesmerize me every time! I sold a couple, I stil own a transparent case/white face version.
And the Q... I forget this watch, until now. That gold tone, that bracelet...
What a great bunch of watches!
For the choice from the shop, I think I'll try on wrist the Timex Q Celestial, it's a good chance to wear brilliants without being unnecessarily blingy! So much going on with that dial...
Thanks for the new video Russ, and for the chance to win those budget beauties!
I like my TIMEX Expedition T46681. It is the most honest and practical watch I have ever had. Good price, stainless steel case, mineral crystal, day-date, 100 m water resistance and of course Indiglo. So many advantages for so little money
Fantastic show. The Timex I would like to win is the Q Pepsi Bezel reissue. I am 68 years old and it reminds me of the watch I had during high school that I wore to tennis practice and to the drive in restaurant afterwards. Thanks for your insight into the watch hobby.
The Timex Peanuts snoopy quartz! Cute little piece. And what a fantastic 4-watch collection you’re giving away!
The silver Timex Q with the blue bezel and dial is 100% my favorite watch on jomashop. Such a damn good looking watch and I don’t have a dive watch in the collection yet so it would be a perfect addition. Love the integrated bracelet and retro goodness styling. Bring back the 70s!!
Absolutely phenomenal. The value of this 4 watch collection is well.. phenomenal
The Timex M79 Automatic caught my eyes. I love the color of the bezel, it's black and blue. It compliments the black dial and the red seconds hand also pops up. I think it's gonna look good on my wrist. I love it!
What a great 4 watch collection MWC!
I’ve got a real soft spot for Timex. They’re almost like an American hybrid combination of Seiko and Casio . They offer fantastic value for money, pretty much any type of complication you could reasonably expect and brand heritage out the wazoo! What’s not to love?

I can't decide between the Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial (more of a two-tone, as the outer ring where the hour numerals are is black), and the Expedition Pioneer Chronograph Quartz ani-digi. Looks rugged, tough and purposeful.
That Timex Allied LT Quartz Grey Dial watch would be perfect for when I go fishing. And the hands even look like fishing floats! 🎣
The Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial Men's Watch is my favorite. Classy and fresh but still oldschool enough to go with an Iron Maiden tshirt from 1986 and som spiked leather on the other wrist. Keep up the good work.
Expedition North Field for me, I always eye for this thing for a long time but always like a couple who never got a chance to match together
Timex is one of the best, I grew up 20 mins from where Timex was born (originally the Waterbury Clock Company). My great grandmother worked and retired from there.
The Heritage Waterbury Chronograph by Timex indeed offers a nod to classic watch designs, much like the revered Omega Speedmaster. With its quartz movement and distinctive blue dial, it provides a budget-friendly option for those who appreciate the timeless style of high-end chronographs. While it may not have the same horological prestige as the Speedmaster, known for its space exploration heritage, the Waterbury stands out with its own charm and reliable functionality, making it a great choice for everyday wear. Whether you're a watch enthusiast or simply looking for a stylish timepiece, the Heritage Waterbury is a testament to Timex's commitment to quality and affordability.
Timex Ironman was an everyday GoTo for the first 15 years in the military. I would beat them until they died and I couldn’t read the numbers anymore. They would see all types of climates desert, tropical rain forest, extreme cold and hot, humid, and keep working through. Even replaced the battery a couple times in each of the ones I had instead of buying a new one. Since getting into watch collecting my style has changed some. I still like the military style watches and the blue Expedition one you showcased is a great looking watch. Right up my alley. I actually went to Jomashop and purchased an Expedition with a 50% off code because of your video. That is probably my new favorite. Thank you.
This man is the main reason I got into collecting
For the Timex watches on Jomashop, I would have to say my favorite is the Expedition North manual wind. You were spot on with thos one! Keep up the great work on this channel. I watched this episode with my 8-year-old for bedtime tucks. The great energy and fun you have is getting her into watches. 😊
Timex Q reissue blue dial for me. Always loved this style even before it came back into fashion in recent years. Nice giveaway!
Superb my friend
Easily my favourite is the milano XL quartz. Such a classic classy look. My beautiful fiance loves timex watches on me and has bought many a watch for me on my birthdays. A favourite out of my whole collection even though its the cheapest is my q falcon eye. What a watch! Love the show mate. Keep up the good work 👏
The Timex Milano XL Quartz Silver Dial Men’s Watch looks really smart 👌🏼
My choice too.
The Timex Marlin Jet is SUCH a beautiful piece; modern technology in a tastefully updated vintage design is truly a masterclass in how to do it right. Definitely on my to purchase list! Thanks for the great videos!
The first watch I bought from my first salary was a timex expedition north solar, its simply great!
Wearing it right now too!
Awesome!
I adore the rugged charm of the Timex Field Mechanical, and that stunning blue hue just takes it to another level !! Love from France
It doesn't look like there's gonna be a winner now doesn't it
Expedition North Field - Great looks, great movement, a proper field watch and a watch I have wanted for a long time!
Hate to be pushy, but any updates on this giveaway?
I want to know too. I really want to buy one of this Timex but I won't do it just in case I win the giveaway. I'm just hanging between buying or keep waiting
@@lionezekai9799lol 😂 same with me. I had my eye set on the Timex expedition north mechanical for a while now.
Pretty much the same. I'm asking because I'm wondering if maybe the winner was announced privately. Could happen.
That expedition north field mechanical is an absolute spec monster for the price! So good to see that timex are still flying the flag for the budget conscious watch buyer.
My fave going into this video was the OG Timex Q which I snagged for a bargain on eBay a few years back - but having seen the gold version in this video, it’s just next level 70s vibes! New fave!
The Expedition North Field looks and feels amazing. You can combine it with a lot of stuff and still look fancy or casual. Thank you for the amazing work on your videos. And huge thank you for the casio videos. I'm now owning a big collection of them because of you. And it's all worth it. Thank you and keep up with the quality videos.
Of the choices on Jomashop, I have to say that Pepsi GMT is my current favorite.
I love the colors & I don't have a GMT.
So cool of you to do this. Love your channel. Keep up the outstanding work!
Cheers Mark!!
The favorite watch TIMEX Q Reissue Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch, although I was confused between Timex Q and Timex GMT but but butttt TIMEX Q's old gold colour and the old look design just beautiful, love the bracelet of the watch, it reminds me of my dad's watch....... Love the TIMEX Q
Russ, for me it's the Q Timex TW2U61900, blue dial , silver case and bracelet. Very similar with the last one in this show, but with more classic color choices. This 4 watches collection is hot. Great show again.
Thanks for the video! My favorite is simple - for some reason, I lean towards the blue dial Expedition that you showed in the video. It’s been years since I’ve owned a hand wind watch - the last one I had was a Timex! I’ve never been to “Jomashop” before and was surprised by all the brands offered! I’ll go back there soon!
Expedition North Field Hand Wind Blue - I have a friend who is getting married, and this would be a perfect gift for him. He has been looking for his first watch and loves the 38mm size and is drawn to blue dials. Additionally, being a legacy brand and a watch that he can hand wind I think it would be perfect for him. Love the channel!
The Waterbury GMT is awesome. I had no idea Timex made these. I like the gold accents and that quick set pusher is awesome!!!
I actually just fell in love with the Waterbury Quartz Pink Dial. It's a bit blingy and out there but to me it's the perfect summers watch. Could go well with a linnen shirt or shorts, or with a light blue, grey or even green suit to the office. I didn't knew I needed a watch with a pink dial, but here I am... :)
I'm really loving the Fairfield Quartz. It has a cool vintage dress watch vibes, with a clean look, and the bracelet reminds me a Patek.
MK1 Quartz Beige Dial TW2R96800 for me. It's a field watch, which I need, stainless steel case, great legibility and Indiglo, I'd upgrade to a suitable bracelet, and its one of the few analog watches the wife would want- Indiglo is a must! great vid as always MWC!
My favorite is my dad's old Easy Reader. He used to love setting off the Indiglo in the middle of the night.
From the website, I would go with M79 Automatic (bracelet). And of course I love the Expedition North Field Hand Wind watch. It reminds me about my first watch, given to me by my grandfather long time ago. There is something special about the interaction between the watch owner and the hand wind watch, I still remember the feeling of winding my watch up every night before bed.
Honestly Timex have such a great back catalogue and love the brand, hope they are around for ever
My favorite is the Waterbury Traditional. It's unique, easy to read, has day and date complications, and the green seconds hand adds a nice bit of color to spice it up.

Thankyou for the review of these Timex watches. Love the vintage vibe of the Timex Q Reissue. Definitely need that on my wrist.
With or without a giveaway, one thing is sure, the "what the wife said" segment is becoming my favorite part of your videos. And by the way, the Northfield Expedition is my favorite...
Timex was my first wrist watch. I still have it even though the battery died long ago. Right now one of my favorites is the expedition north mechanical because it’s such an honest little watch. Love the connection between watch and wearer
Currently in love with the Timex automatic marlins, especially with the peanuts collaboration Timex has. Snoopy looks great on a watch!
One of my closest friends introduced me to watches with a orient automatic. He had a magnificent watch box that spanned from casio and to seiko and some expensive brands I can't quite recall. He's in the hospital with sepsis and a cellulitis case. His watch collection was recently lost in a fire at his home. This would be a wonderful start to getting a good collection going.
My first watch, in the mid 1980's was a Timex Playskool collaboration. It was meant to help kids learn how to tell time on an analog watch, it was a red rectangle with a digital screen and a bright yellow dial analog watch. I wish I still had it. Since that watch I grew up with Timex's and still have a few. Im strongly considering picking up the Q Reissue Quartz blue is the closest to a Timex I had in college.
Got to be the Navi XL Auto Black. I like the Field look and love how the hr hand circles the 24hr markers 👌Thanks MWC for highlighting more affordable watches, love your vibe and videos 👍🏻💯
I agree that the Expedition North Field watch is an amazing value and my fave on the Jomashop site (for Timex watches). Seriously, where else are you going to find a watch with those specs at that price. I'm not normally a Timex guy at all, but I have to give credit where credit's due and that watch is truly a steal for the price. If someone is new to watch collecting that truly would be a no-regret watch to start with, plus it's a great size at 38mm. Thanks for the reviews Russ! Thanks Jomashop!
Love the channel. My wife loves all the watches but her favorite is the Q Timex dive watch in gold!!
MWC! For me, it's the Timex Expedition North Sierra Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch. I love it's legibility, quartz reliability, and the dimensions are perfect: 40mm case and a strap-a-holic 20mm lugwidth! Let's go!!!!
The Waterbury Legacy with the blue dial for me. Fluted bezel hints at the design of a Datejust just enough without going full homage. Great video, thank you MWC👍🏻
The Expedition North Field Hand Wind Blue Dial is my favorite. I've always been drawn to that field watch style and I don't have one in blue. I'm also a sucker for Indiglo which is why I still enjoy wearing my two Timex Weekenders (one white, one black).
I had a Timex in Grad School that received more compliments than any watch I've ever owned.
Regarding those on Jomashop, you can't go wrong with the Mk1 Chronograph Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch. It's a real beauty!
My first Timex was an expedition, always loved those. But the Navi Xl Quartz White Dial Men's Watch really does it for me from those on offer on Jomashop. Love that skeleton Monacle style hour hand that encircles the 13 to 24 hour markers on the inner track.....very cool.
I’m loving the Modern Easy Reader Quartz White Dial. It’s that kind of watch that you can wear anytime anywhere and it will always look fancy.
The Timex Field Mechanical is my favorite because it checks all of the boxes in my perfect watch. Great movement, sapphire glass, thin wearable case, 100m water resistance and my FAVORITE dial from Vietnam Era military issue watches!! AWESOME!! I would LOVE to win the collection!!
My favorite Timex avalilable at Jomashop is the Heritage Waterbury Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial Men's Watch, it looks so elegant, it seems it goes with a lot of outfits and it looks way more expensive than it is...its a must for a watch collection and I would love to see it on my wrist
The Navi XL with the green bezel really pops for me. As an emt I love the fact that the hour hand circle shows military time at a quick glance.
Awesome collection! I'm a great fan of the Q range and their retro reissues. The Timex Milano XL gives so much 70s vibe which I love.
The Expedition North Field post solar 36 mm looks clean. My first watch was a Timex bought by my parents when I was 8 in 1980.
Fell in love with the Waterbury Legacy Quartz Blue Dial. Elegant with classic tone. The clasp doesn't seems like pulling that much hair too 😂. Great shout out for Timex, MWC!
The Waterbury Traditional Quartz Silver Dial Men's Watch will be my perfect pick from Jomashop because of its striking sector dial makes it stand apart. It can be used when dressed up or on more casual occasions. The bracelet is surprisingly a mix of brushed and polished surfaces, making it look like a big deal!
Brilliant collection, gotta love em. Ok, Q reissue in blue with 2 tone bracelet, Awesome bit of retroness, love it. Great video cheers.
Cracking little collection of timex. My favourite timex is the q gmt Pepsi. Cool retro look similar to another watch I will never get my hands on.
You can never go wrong with Timex. I like the Heritage Waterbury Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial. It’s just elegant and lets people know you mean business. Love your vids man, keep it up.
Timex Q reissue - because I love the vintage style with the integrated bracelet. Ways good to have a quartz in the collection's also to pick up and have it already set and ready to go.
Timex q blue dial is my fav. I also love Timex Marlin chrono and mf 13. Great collection to own❤
I really appreciate the different perspectives of brands and price range and styles.
My personal favourite is the expedition north, simple and elegant. Beautiful watch!
A day-to-go watch is definitely the Tissot Chronograph Quartz Blue Dial Men's Watch
The blue color of the dial has that classical vibe, which makes my eye enticed by it. The rose gold colour and the blue colour really blend in well for me. On top of that BLUE TEXTILE STRAP! Very magnificent for me.
Right. Q Reissue blue dial, silver bezel, looks fabulous! Like the Q reference, and the blue/silver contrast. Thanks!
I love dive watches and the aesthetics of Timex M79 give me a perfect vintage dive watch vibe! Love it.
My favorite would be the MK1 Quartz Black Dial Men's Watch
Item No. TW2R97000, because I like the style and how it looks with the black dial, gunmetal steel case and that brown leather strap makes the watch pop. Great channel and great video!
The Timex Field Mechanical is my absolute favorite watch of Timex. The design is very simplistic but the watch looks great. And the price is ridiculous low. Just a great watch :) . Kind regards from germany ☺
My favourite newish Timex is the Q 3 time zone chronograph. Not only looks fantastic but being Irish and living in Australia, having a few different timezones on my wrist are essential! Thanks for another excellent video by the way 😊
My fav is the expedition north field hand wind in the blue dial it’s superb and very simple. The strap is great and looks great value and quality for the price overall!
I really like the allied LT with the grey dial. The orange accents on the hands against the grey dial with black numbers just really works for me. Plus that textured finish to the bezel gives it a really unique look.
Has to be the timex Q reissue Quartz Blue . Love a day date and love the old nostalgia braclet. Like you said everybody's dad or grandad had a watch with one of those braclets. ❤
Great picks! My personal favorite is their Peanuts collab watch with an astronaut Snoopy on the dial, I just love how playful and fun that timepiece is!
For me, it's the Classic Chronograph in blue. It was the first watch I ever got on my first trip to the US, in New York, and it holds a special place in my heart because of that. But I've also received so many compliments on it because it's such a simple, elegant watch.
I see that in the current version the dial is a little more cluttered, and they've changed the crown to an onion-shaped one. But if I ever lost mine, I'd be more than 100% sure I'd buy it again! The Indiglo, the quick adjustment hour hand, the typographies of the dial (especially the numerals),... I don't know, it's a model that might not attract attention at first, but it's a strap monster and for today it is, and will be, one of my favourites in my collection forever.
Wishing you all a great day! :)
I'm addicted to chronographs, and the blue dial on the Heritage Waterbury Chronograph is somehow busy, yet beautifully clean
The MK1 quartz has always been a favorite of mine. I love the look of the oversized triangle minute markers on the chapter ring!
I always liked the Waterbury collection more than anything else. I own one, the Legacy with an orange dial and the ticking will annoy you at night...it's loud but fun.
I've got my eye on the Waterbury TW2V49800. I've never had a watch with an inner rotating bezel.
Cheers.
Amazing models. My favorite from their website is the Marlin Automatic because my father used to own one in the 80s and it looks very similar, with a modern twist. I would love the 4-watch collection. Thanks.
The timex Lab 80 quartz in white is my favorite timex watch from Jomashop.
Would definitely wear it fishing. Cheers
1st, thank you for Featuring Timex. It is an incredible brand with a rich history, however, is not mentioned much by larger creators.
2nd for me my favorite is the Timex Q for some of the reasons your wife mentioned(ironically). The Q is so distinctly Timex that it makes me love it even more. It’s not trying to be something that it is not like Rolex or Omega it is a Quartz Timex and proud of it
I love the look of this diver - Timex Harborside Coast Quartz Black Dial. The cyclops date window is an added bonus!
