    I do think Timex is a good brand that's over looked as it's got labelled a fashion brand but they have been going is it since the 60's that no fashion brand to me

    Another one from the Originals series. This one is from the 70's line. I have mixed feelings about this one.

    Thanks, I got it for next to nothing, it was a real steal... less than $20 USD!

    I'm not much of a gold fan, thus the *gasp*, but I'm warming to it. Especially on vintage pieces where it's not so bright and shiny or there's more dial than case and it's not as overpowering.
