  • There seems to be a lot of firsts for me recent, as today, we look at the Timex Marlin California Dial watch, 40mm and in the sunburts salmon colour. I think almost everything in the above sentence is new to me, from the classic Timex marlin collection, to the California Dial that I've been search for and the beautiful salmon colour.
    Spoiler alert, I love this watch VERY VERY MUCH.

      bought this watch several months back the movement died, the rotor wouldnt wind the watch. only manual winding worked. timex replaced it but the second one now is having power reserve issues. disappointed at the quality of the internals.

      Yeh, so in love with that look, sucks that I only recently found out there is a 34mm version. Only thing is the 34mm version isn't in salmon, so perhaps I didn't make a mistake buying this after all.

    Yeah this is pretty. I just wish it was a little better quality in the engine department as well as a 38mm. I'd want it to sit around 500 to 600 usd.

    • @TheChirpyPanda
      @TheChirpyPanda  3 роки тому

      100%, I wish it was 38mm or even 36mm! The movement could be better but its Timex so an automatic watch is already a pretty big improvement from them.

    The loud rotor is when it free-spinning in the opposite direction since it only has unidirectional winding. It is akin to the Valjoux 7750 rotor wobble.

    1) A sleeve
    2) A box
    3) Another box
    And hey presto a watch that was strapped down looked cheap to me and an expensive gimmick, watch boxes in the 1950 weren’t like that. As for the watch… preferred the 60’s originals, no plexiglass, no SeaGull mechanisms, stainless still shell was much better than 60’s chrome plated, as won’t chip, I’m not convinced about it keeling time and how to get it mended outside its warranty.

    • @MeTaLISaWeSoMe95
      @MeTaLISaWeSoMe95 Рік тому +2

      So let's narrow this down...
      1. The box doesn't matter. At all.
      2. The watch doesn't look cheap, it's made of industry standard materials, and the glass is the same as was used in older models and is better than mineral as it can be buffed out.
      3. The movement is a miyota, not a seagull movement, and it's a solid performer.
      4. Getting it worked on will be cheap and parts are readily available for every miyota 8000 series movement.
      For the money, this watch is quite nice.
