    What Timex do you own?

      38 mm weekender, an nfl timex piece from Bengals and a 41 mm Weekender Fairfield. I liked the chronograph versions that you showed in the video, Timex watches are absolutely great! P.S. Timex Q series are incredible too.

      I've owned a Timex Easy Reader for about a year. Great inexpensive daily wear. I've got the Timex Weekender Chronograph arriving from Amazon on monday. Can't wait for it to get here!

      A weekender and a Fairfield chrono, with the separate leather straps, not the hokey slip through. Love them both

    The Weekender chronograph was one of my first watches with a blue dial and brown strap like that one. Just dont forget to pull the crown after use as you will find they tick loud at night to where you have to get up to fix the issue. Good video hermano!

    I subbed my guy. I’m not going to lie man I originally liked the water bury because it looks like the character Jonah would wear but I actually love that watch. Thank you so much for the review

    The Waterbury also has a stainless steel case vs brass on the Weekender.

      This is probably the most crucial difference because it solves the annoying loud ticking of the Weekender. The other main difference is the bauhaus design of the Waterbury Classics which bring it closer to "chronograph for dress" territory a la Junghans, Nomos Glaschutte, something you're not going to get at this price point unless you're going all-homage with the Feice "chronoscopes".

    I own a Timex Command, Marlin (with Snoopy on the dial), and Q. I absolutely love my Timex Q, and the Marlin is awesome, too. I really like the Timex American Documents watches, but can't bring myself to pay $500 for a Timex quartz watch.

    So i could get 2 different weekenders for the price of 1 waterbury? And the waterbury has no significant advantage over the weekender?

    • @IAMMRMARTINEZ
      @IAMMRMARTINEZ  3 роки тому

      I would say no, not alot

    • @josiah566
      @josiah566 Рік тому

      the waterbury has two crucial differences that make it worth the price point and that is a stainless steel case vs the brass on the Weekender and a sleeker bauhaus dial design language. The stainless steel case is THE main solution to the loud ticking noise you will get from the brass Weekender, unless you don't mind stuffing the weekender into a drawer at the end of every day. The Waterbury design language adds a nice luxurious touch to it, leaning bauhaus towards the likes of Junghans Max Bill Chronoscope vs the Weekender which looks closer to the Expeditions which themselves are homages to field chronographs.
      Now of course, these only matter to the people that care about such things, but the Waterbury is more expensive for very good reasons - better visual design and construction, which are two of the main reasons any watch collector in the world would ever move up any price tier, at all. If better design and construction do not matter to you, then yes - there is no significant advantage to owning a more expensive Waterbury than a Weekender in the same way some people are happy with and validly prefer a Prius to a Tesla.
