Timex Turns 170: A Dollar for History!

For watch lovers and history buffs alike, Timex has a treat! To celebrate their 170th anniversary, the iconic brand is offering a limited-edition watch for just $1. This isn't just any cheap watch, though. It's a tribute to Timex's roots and their commitment to making quality timepieces accessible to everyone.

Back in 1854, Timex, then known as the Waterbury Clock Company, revolutionized the world with their "dollar watch." Before them, timekeeping was a luxury enjoyed by the wealthy. The Waterbury watch changed that, allowing everyday people like farmers, train conductors, and factory workers to synchronize their lives. This innovation was a huge success, with over six million "dollar watches" in use across America by the turn of the century. Even literary giant Mark Twain owned one!

Honoring the Legacy

The $1 Anniversary Watch isn't just a cheap replica. It's a stylish and well-crafted piece that pays homage to the original Waterbury watch. It features a crisp ice-white dial with the 170th-anniversary logo, 3D Roman numerals, and a handy day and date window. The watch comes with a comfortable brown leather strap and a special engraved caseback commemorating this milestone.

Timex in India

Timex has been a beloved brand in India for 35 years. To celebrate their anniversary and show appreciation for their Indian customers, Timex India will be offering a limited number (120) of these special watches for just Rs 83. This is a fantastic opportunity for Indian watch enthusiasts to own a piece of history at an unbelievable price.

Global Celebration

While only 1,000 watches will be available worldwide, Timex is making sure fans from all corners of the globe can join the celebration. The watches will be offered at select retailers, ensuring watch enthusiasts everywhere have a chance to snag this special timepiece.
