I did it, I finally did it, something nobody would have expected…

Bought a Timex!

Always liked some of the homage watches they did, and the fact that they had relatively inexpensive watches with manual wind movements. But $200 for a Timex just seemed excessive. However, as of last week, with the 15% coupon for new customers, this came down to $115 and pulled the trigger:

Actually wears on the smaller side, which I like. Always liked the Marlin, too, but only had 3ATM WR.

Congrats! Wearing mine right now.

Btw, if you have a timegrapher and are ready to re-regulate it....

No timegrapher. But using a phone app, it runs about +23.1/day the first couple days. Won’t be a daily wearer, and won’t wind every day, so should be alright with that. I seem to recall that Grady mentioned his Marlin ran similar and I believe movement is the same.
