Wow...for me this is one of your best videos telling us the history of the Timex watches...I truly appreciate it...thank you
I have been collecting watches since the 70s, during the early 80s I started taking my watches to a local shop run by a Swiss guy named Lucas. He was trained and built watches for a couple of the big Swiss brands Rolex being the one he started at as a young man and worked for them for like 20 years. He eventually immigrated to the US worked for a local clock maker and then opened his own repair shop. As time went by we became very good friends and he started teaching me how to do the basics and later some of the more complicated stuff. Every time I would bring in one of my new higher end watches for him to look at, he would make a face at me and point to his vintage Timex on his wrist and say to me "why do you waste so much money when all you need is this to tell time!" To this day every time I buy any watch over 100 bucks never mind a real expensive one, All I can see in my mind is his face and hear him in that accent telling me buy a dam Timex! LOL When he retired he went back to the old country but before he closed up for good he gave me a bunch of tools and an old Timex that I still have today and cherish. It still tells time like it was new. I wish I could say that for a lot of my high end watches that I spent 1000s on in servicing fees.
This is a really fantastic story thank you sharing this
That’s a great story
Great story thank you for sharing. Those people in your life are angles, they come, they teach or impart wisdom, and then they are gone. Your life is made richer by having known them. Now our lives too are touched in a positive way, many thanks.
While there's nothing wrong with buying luxury watches...I think the moral of the story is that it's not always the price you pay that makes a watch priceless, it's the memories and sentimental value that you associate with it.
Tú nieve de qué la quieres?
My mom had a small Timex. She lost it in the parking lot on our last day of the season. The next ski season, after we had skied all day and were packed up and ready to leave, my mom suggested we go look around where we were parked when she lost the watch. This was a gravel lot, at Vernon Valley Great Gorge Ski Resort in the winter and the infamous Action Park in the summer. (Just look up Action Park) We found the watch. Half buried in gravel, ice and water. And it was still working. My mom wrote the company with the story but never heard back.
Timex. The Nokia of wristwatches.
Dude! You should send them the story again! Use social media, direct contact website, etc... That must be told because... dang it! I bet most of the expensive brands won´t make it through!
funfact: the dutch holding group, that owns timex is still controlled and owned by the olson family (Fred. Olsen & Co) and today, the Daugther of Thomas Frederik Olson is the Head of the Corporation
I have my late Dad’s Timex. He wore it to work everyday (outdoors beating it good). It’s 45 years old and still runs fine!
What model is it?
@@relosapulso : Hi John. Dunno, how would I know since there is no name on it. I reached out to Timex, sadly, no response.
@@mitchellsumpter4807 oh okay but man, what a watch it still runs after 45 years
@@mitchellsumpter4807 would you mind to share the video of it on CZcams 😘
I'm doing work at a hospital in Waterbury, CT and pass by the Timex museum every day. They have a clock tower and all 4 faces are indiglo!
Absolutely love my Timex Midget. First watch I ever bought myself, and it's gorgeous.
At the time it was called the Ingersol Midget. Also in 2018 the Timex Midget came out like the old WWI trench watches. I have both of them.
It prefers “little person.”
Damn, I saw it and missed it
Everyone remembers their first…
I have a timex watch of my grandfather from 1968 doesn't run anymore but I will keep it forever.
Probably just needs a good service and cleaning!
Get your watch guy to do the internals but leave the dial, hands and case as is.
I can make it run if you're in Europe. Or there are other people in the US who provide timex restoration.
@@the_once-and-future_king. If it's one of the old pin-lever movements, though, it can't actually be serviced. More's the pity.
@@jakekaywell5972 they pull the movement out, take the hands and dial off, and it can be cleaned with lighter fluid. They typically just need to be cleaned and they'll start working again. I have 3 that I've fixed with lighter fluid
@@Nothingtoya That's not an actual servicing though, now is it? To my knowledge, the Ruhla Caliber 24 is the only pin-lever movement that was actually designed to be serviceable.
I’m from india and my first instance with a watch was a timex Anadigi. It stayed on my wrist for a good 3 years before the strap broke. I still have it btw. Found it in my drawer during the pandemic. I was so sure it’s not going to work but I put in a new battery and voila it started ticking. That’s a testament to timex and their quality, atleast back in the day. Love timex it’s a great brand with some strong heritage :)
Great job as always Jory. I've owned some version of a Timex watch most of life. That tag line is one of the best ever. The old TV commercial where they strap a Timex to the front of a speedboat and then run the boat through an obstacle course. After the boat finished the course they would zoom in close to confirm the watch is still running and state, "Timex, It take a licking and keep on ticking" Advertising gold. Keep up the great work man. Cheers!
My first watch was given to me in 1961 when I started secondary school. It was a Timex. Still had it when I started work. Unfortunately cannot remember when it went to the great watchbox in the sky.
What a great year, i was born 😃 what a great watch and what a great team CFC. 👍🏻🏴😎
Up The Chels!!!!!
@@jimmccaig7946 I was born in 62, so I bought a 1962 21 jewel Looks like new old stock it’s incredible it’s off about 30 seconds a day unbelievable
The best add for Timex was on Get Smart, when Siegfried magnetized a watch on a ship and pulled it to Schwartz's Island, which was followed by Starker holding it up and uttering the immortal words: "The watch took a licking, but it kept on ticking". I got my first watch, a Timex, the next year, 1969.
My 48 year old Mercury runs like a dream, put on a bund strap the smaller size is taken care of... UK Timex manufactured the Sinclair home computer in the 80’s
First watch I've ever bought was a timex expedition scout, I was 15 or 16 back then. I really enjoy it even today and indiglo is awesome.
A timex Waterbury was my first watch as a watch collector ... looking back I way overpaid buying at msrp but it’s still in my collection and I still love it...
Timex was using the “Takes a licking and keeps on ticking” since 1950s using John Cameron Swayze as a spokesman on live TV commercials.
That's right. The Timex brand started in 1950. John Cameron Swayze did live commercials where he torture tested the watch. One night they lost the watch strapped to boat propeller. John said, "I'm sure it's still ticking, wherever it is."
This correct. I’m old enough to remember the commercials. I had a Timex given to me in grade school ca 1962. I hate to say it T3 but your history is flawed.
I’m just going by what’s written on the Timex Website here:)
The official company in charge of anything pertaining to timex/Waterbury watches was US TIME CORPORATION from 1944-1969.
Not sure where the flaw is. 👍
@@thetimeteller Just wanted to clarify your statement starting at about 6:04. It implied or could be misinterpreted that the slogan started use in 1969.
Timex as a brand started in 1950. The company used the “ licking/ticking” slogan starting in the 1950s. Most memorably as live torture tests hosted byJohn Cameron Swayze. As you said in 1969 the United States Time Corporation,the owner of the Timex brand, was renamed the Timex Corporation. I intended no harm or criticism.
@@thetimeteller look up “Old Timex Commercials” right here on You tube. It seems that those who now run Timex don’t know the history of the company. That is beyond sad.
The watch that got me into this rabbit hole of a hobby was my dad’s old 70’s Timex with expandy bracelet that had been sitting in a jewelry box my whole life. Asked him if he wanted it, started watching videos, ended up on the T3 channel and ended up with a Seiko SNK the next month. That was 2 years ago, I’m about ten watches deep, and I partially blame Jory for it.
Yaaaaassssss
That original Ironman sure brings back memories. One of my favorites throughout middle and high schools. Pretty sure wearing it added at least 10ft to my discus tosses and 5mph to my bicycle downhill speed.
My Timex expedition for £48 has been flawless
@Sigkim yes flawless for £48 don't fall into the trap of thinking this is a "good" watch
@Sigkim I'd grab the mk1. Fantastic watch.
@Sigkim wouldn't it be better to consider the expedition chrono ? If you do consider it, then go for it because it has good 100m WR. Also get the expedition scout chrono- it looks more versatile IMHO.
@@dietznutz1 a good watch is a difficult thing to define. Frankly, if it tells the time adequately and is reliable enough, it’s pretty hard to say that timepiece is not “good”.
Is a Rolex or omega or longings any better watch than a $20 Casio or $40 Timex? If you’re only using it to tell the time, you could argue the quartz movements makes the affordable watches frankly better tools.
Of course, there are reasons people pay for more expensive watches, but that is not to say that they need to in order to get a “good” watch.
To be honest, if someone says their watch is flawless, then I’d say its a good watch no matter what the price.
I got my first watch for my 10th birthday. It was a Timex. From then on, I never bought anything but Timex. When Casio came out with their super nerdy calculator watches, I thought they looked ridiculous. When the G-Shock line started coming out, I thought they looked like kid’s watches. Eventually, my dad gave me his Omega Speedmaster Professional that he bought new in 1967 before I was even a thought. That was my first taste of watches other than Timex, and my first taste of boutique watches.
Still, I’ve had good experiences with Timex and have never been disappointed by any of their products that I’ve bought…well, the watches, I mean. Their watch bracelets can be pretty cheap, but the watches themselves have served me well.
This video is easily my favorite that you've made. Thank you! Very informative. I have a new found respect for timex.
I was born in 67 and when I was 5 yrs old my Grandad taught me to tell the time and he bought me my first ever watch. It was a Timex Sprite. It probably cost under £5 in 1972. Today, those watches are marketed as a vintage military watch and nice ones regularly fetch £100. As a boy I was fascinated with that watch and still had it laying around in a draw until my early 20s. I really don't know what happened to that watch but I so wish I'd looked after it and kept my first ever watch. Im 56 now and could easily buy another one and have considered it many times but it just wouldn't be mine. I cherish the memories of that little Timex which started my fascination with watches which endures today. As a teen I lived through the digital age and owned watches with alarms, dual time, chronographs etc then later in life moved onto the solar watches from Citizen and the Kinetics from Seiko and today im now back into mechanical movements, back where I started in 1972. Great video, it really triggered a lot of memories for me. Thank you.
Thanks Jory. I’m been in quarantine because I’ve been exposed to COVID, and your videos are helping me through this tough situation. Thanks to you, I’m having fun looking at watches on Amazon all day haha. Have a good one.
I’ve had Covid too. What’s the big deal? You get to lay around the house for a couple of weeks. “Quarantine” really isn’t that hard.
@@totallyfrozen Holy shit, you sure did tell him! Very impressive! Good job, Buddy!
I am a Swatch Collector but have a 75 Timex Linen that Fred Bitzer in Florida refurbished for me. I love it. It was great-grandfather's watch. Looking for my second timex now, I love the pan-am Waterbury
Timex was my first watch. I was so proud of that watch. I'd bet I was 12. And their new designs look awesome honestly.
Fantastic video, Jory. Thank you for this. Timex has been a part of all our lives at one time or another.
I had one of the original model Ironman watches when I was a kid. I don't think I got it that first year, but it was within a year or two of that, and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. My mechanical watch (also a Timex, I think) got set aside pretty quickly. And now things have come full circle and I'm back to mostly mechanical, although I do still have a newer Ironman watch that's perfect for times when there's a high chance of damage.
I inherited my Grandfather's Marlin from the 60's and it runs great. I bought a $200 reissue a couple of years ago and it fell apart while winding.
I’ve owned a number of Timex watches. Both quartz and mechanical. They have all been loud tickers. They are the loudest watches I’ve owned.
I love my simple Timex field watch! Lightweight, easy to read, classic design- they’re a great company.
Bro i literally put on my first timex (arrived today), went to youtube, and this was at the top. Nice timing
I was born in 1967 my first watch a Manual Wind British Made Timex Watch and I’ve still got it I was given it by my Fathers Parents my Grandparents in 1970 it still works and has just had it’s service it gets serviced every 2 years.
First watch I owned was a Timex back in the sixties, I think I was about 5 years old, great historical video 👍
I have a Timex that I changed the battery for the first time today. I've owned the watch since 2014.
I'm impressed.
Me too! I have. Tissot that goes through batteries annually ! 🙄
My first watch was a Timex windup.
I gift watches to high school and college grads. I have one remaining Ironman - new - beater watch and one remaining Skagen - new- dress watch.
I have bought used Timex quartz and used Ironman units. When shtf, I have watches for a group setting to be used in conjunction with low end communication devices.
My sister bought me the Timex Ironman. Wearing it now love it
I think of John Cameron Swayze with a watch attached to an outboard motor. I have my first watch, a timex bought in 1972. It still runs.
I remember those commercials as well, in B&W of course, I’m an old fart.
Yes Mickey Mantel hitting baseballs wearing a timex dishwasher tests and John Cameron Swayze great memories
I had the original Timex Ironman Triathlon watch (with incandescent backlight) in 1986, and around 1993, I upgraded to the Triathlon Indiglo model. Awesome watches! I still have the Indiglo one, although now I favor wearing a Citizen Eco-drive AT4004-52E "PCAT."
I love Timex watches ! I own several new and vintage , I'm in my sixties and Timex was The watch of my youth and the famous Takes a licking and keeps on ticking commercials with John Cameron Swazey were great ! That ad campaing goes back much earleir than 1969 .
Great coverage of a wonderful watch company with rich American roots. I learned a lot. I admit I'm a fan. I own the Marlin and the new Georgio Galli and I love them both. Be well.
I am looking at picking up on the Giorgio Galli once it’s back in stock!
Watching this while wearing my grey 36mm Expedition on a grey Barton strap. One of my least expensive watches and a favorite. Love Indiglo.
Same with my weekender chronograph, it's my work watch the green dial one is gorgeous for what it is
I’m the same way I wear my Timex’s more then my expensive watches.
As a baby I wore a tiny blue timex given to me by my grand Mother. I've seen fotos of myself at 2 years with that watch. Strange, I know, a 2 year old wearing a Timex. Both my families were kind of watch crazy. One of my grand fathers usted 4 at the same time. He was almost blind but used to sincronize the four with a magnifying glass everyday with a radio station in México that only had comercials and the exact time with a beep every minute.
Mr. Time Teller, appreciate you doing the research and providing an informative update filled with wit and creative editing. Thanks for the heads up on A man and his Watch! Looking forward to more videos.
Love these videos bro, just found the channel this week but i'm here for it! Thanks for the entertainment bro
Not going to lie. If you do anything in the darkness, you'd be a fool to pass up a Timex just because it's a Timex. As a nighttime hunter, I only go out with my Timex Expedition on my wrist.
Very enjoyable video. You do a great job on these, Jory. Thanks for all you do. Thanks for all the good words about a " commoner" watch.
I have the very first Ironman (circa 1986). Pre-Indiglo. It was my grandfather’s… he was a hip, hip dude, and this was his first quartz watch. I’ve been timing it for 207 days and it’s lost a mere 2.6 seconds. It’s the most accurate/precise non-atomic watch I own. I mean, this is 9F territory. In a 35 year old Timex. Amazing stuff.
Anyway, great video. Timex retrospectives always put a smile on my face.
I bought my Timex weekender about 5 years ago , i like it very much , wear it most days and still has the original battery . It also came with a spare strap .
I have a couple of Timex Dynabeats. For a couple of years just before the quartz revolution these electrics sold ran at 28,800 beats. They hammer away so loud I could hear them on the dresser from bed. Both mid 70's.
checked at your store... 405usd for a timex with chromed case, stainless steel back and a slightly damaged dial?
Interesting piece at an interesting price
It was $660 a few days ago!!! Ridiculous!!
My first watch was a Timex when I started at the 'big school' in the 60s. Still remember my pride as I looked at it, and also the Ad campaign of the time with the famous Jingle ~ ' Ring the bells with Xmas Tidings, Ticker ticker Timex, Tra La La "
Interesting video about the profile and history of TIMEX and time line about TIMEX watches that were mass manufactured during those years. Keep it coming.
For a great affordable dress watch with 40s deco/50s streamline modern vibes, I recommend the Timex Metropolitan. At 40mm it's a bit big for a dress watch, but it's razor thin and the combination of radial brushing and guilloche textures on the dial creates the illusion of a pie pan shape.
I love men’s watches. 40mm face! I love the big look on my wrist it makes my arm look smaller and more dainty and yet it’s cool! Like a girl driving a truck or a jeep. I just ordered my first Timex Waterbury Roman numeral leather strap quarts watch and an extra stainless steel chain link strap to switch out for different occasions! I can’t wait to receive it! I’ve loved my Casio baby g digital watch that I use for work (health care, need to read the minutes quickly). My Timex is for my nice outfits outside of work
I've got a Timex Easy Reader I just put a fresh battery in since at least a decade or so ago since I found it randomly in a drawer. Still works, indiglo still shines bright and got a variety of straps to put it in. Still an awesome watch and a trooper. I know it'll probably be the watch that I have when the zombie apocalypse happens.
I have a Timex expedition Scout on my wrist right now. I love it.
Great video on the history of Timex. I have a number of Timex watches, and I like the Marlin reissues. I have both a hand-wind and an automatic. I would be interested in your opinion of the new solar watches Timex has been releasing over the last few years. I have several of their solar watches and they perform well.
Thanks for mentioning the lack of models for women. I like watches and I always wanted to have a "good" one. In general, the offer for women are the "girly" ones with Swarovski crystals, rose gold or silver and gold. I like elegant watches, but I'm on the "simple" side. I've been searching a lot for my "ideal" watch and I'm sure I want an automatic, but it needs to have a see-through backcase. Most of the automatic watches for women I've seen don't have that and if they have, they're way above my budget. I think I will buy an Orient. First, because I know of Orient since my childhood. Second, tradition. Third, I think they took over what Seiko left behind. Fourth, I want a classic look, but not "girly" look. You're quite the entertainer. I just discovered your videos.
Thanks. Good vid. My Dad was a Timex man. Unfortunately my Mom can't recall what happened to his last Timex with the twist-o-flex band. I would like to have it. Keep at it!
Love my Timex Expedition Scout. $40 beater that looks great!
I’ve got 5 Timex watches in my possession at the moment. I have a Dual Shock, an Expedition, and an Easy Reader Date that work, an Easy Reader Day Date that I completely destroyed as a teenager, and an old green dial hand-me-down from my sadly departed grandmother that still runs, albeit at -5,000 seconds per day. My fiancée also has a ladies Timex that she wears on formal occasions. She also has a ladies Casio for outdoorsy adventures and a Tru Time digital for everyday wear.
I remember watching Timex spokesman, John Cameron Swayze saying "Timex, takes a lickin' and keeps on tickin' " in the early '60s. They had a series of TV commercials where they would put a timex through different tests like shooting an arrow through a window with a Timex attaached.
I own the Timex Marlin reissue - silver dial and black dial and LOVE them both - they are like buying NOS vintage watches.
You put a lot of research into this. Thanks.
I put my Marlin Reissue through the ringer. It goes everywhere and does everything with me. It runs about 15 seconds fast each day, but I don't expect perfect accuracy. I have small wrists, wanted a stainless case with a vintage look, something that I could beat up and easily have repaired. A seagull movement in a 34mm stainless case? Sold.
thanks for the nostalgia buddy, back in the day memories,
Belter of a video. I’ve been down some similar rabbit holes with Timex recently. Wrist watch history just such a fun way to spend some time!
First time I have come across your channel. Great video! You got yourself another sub.
Nice humor. Enjoy the history. Well done! Love the positivity.
This is the type of video i like the most Jory, very well.
My 30 year old Timex digital has gone everywhere with me. I have taken it swimming many times and it has never leaked. The only service has been the strap and the battery. The battery lasts 4 to 5 years. It is accurate to a few seconds per month. What more can you ask from a watch that cost $42?
I just love the Timex digital/analog combo Expedition watches that come with an easily programmable countdown timer! The only problem with these watches is they come with a plated brass casing and in just a few years, the plating wears off and the brass shows and begins to corrode away.Also don't like the cheaper plastic resin cases. If Timex would only produce these watches with a stainless steel case and back, they have a great watch that I'd pay an easy extra $100 dollars for. Also, put in a screw back so it's easier to replace the batteries with. Go the extra mile Timex and produce these watches. Are you listening Timex???
I love Timex! Wish I had mine from when I was a kid.
Timex is also a great way to dip your toe into birth-year watch collecting, given the fact that they have an easy to read date coding system and can be picked up for next to nothing. Just don't expect to get more than you're paying for and they can be fun.
👍🏻 i got a 1963 Marlin. It’s a awesome piece!
1978 miltary field style black dialed watch was my 1st ever watch wow such a good lil watch i was 7 yrs old loved it and looking around the vintage Gems are still about for sale... I guess the weekender was its replacement as look very similar...have a few timex myself never will knock timex been around along time..great review of there history ...
Loved this video! Thanks for sharing! :)
thank you Time Teller for the information
Omg Jory I just re- re- located my grandfather's 4014(1) Timex Viscount 4014 2961 - Circa 1961. It needed a new crown and to be cleaned and oiled. He obviously loved it and wore it. I polished the crystal and fitted it with a new brown leather band to dress it up a bit. It is in my weekly rotation. So cool to have a piece of history and my grandfather's watch on my wrist. Thanks for the history lesson here! So interesting.
First watch .. a TIMEX !! Totally agree they run the affourdable game :)
I have a few Timex watches; two Todd Snyders, a vintage Marlin, and I love them!
Great info thanks
Educative vid, thank you 😊
Love'd this segment. Thanks for sharing.
I bought the same Ironman watch you showcased a few months ago (the blue one) using one of your affiliate links.
One of the most comfortable, lightweight and legible watches I own. And I truly think it will indeed "take a likin' and keep on tickin' "
LOL! By the way, I like your "NFT" comment at the end 😂
Question for you: I have one of the early digital Times watches, silver tone with mesh metal band, rounded rectangular face with black surrounding the small number area. It requires 2 batteries, one for keeping time and one for a light. It came out at he beginning of the digital watch phase before they got really cheap and disposable. It doesn't work right: when I put new batteries in it, the numbers show but fade and are not visible. I think they are supposed to be visible at all times. Do you know if there is somewhere it could be repaired? If you do, would it be worth the cost? I believe it cost about $40 to $45 when brand new. Thank you!
WHAT a HISTORY lesson 👏👏👏 thank you really did not know this about TIMEX ... love this channel BOOOOOOM!!!!🤙🤙🤙🤙⌚⌚⌚
Awesome bro! Love it!
Great video..very informative and entertaining!
The only reason i love watches is because of the first watch i ever bought.... the Timex mk1... was tired of pulling my phone out to check the time ( my job is very schedule sensitive) so i decided i needed a watch
Their v-conic escapement was the technology that improved on pin-lever movement designs of the time - it can re-align itself after being knocked.
My Timex Explorer is my daily beater and works Great!
Thanks, T3! Fun episode!
I got a bunch. Automatic, windups, and tons of quartz. I really want an electric Dynabeat which you could have mentioned because it was a hybrid pre quartz-electro mechanical watch. Love you too sweetheart!
My favorite brand and the most numerous in my large collection.
At least Timex is getting some love
Had a Timex Ironman watch as a kid, thank goodness that thing was durable because I never took it off and it got beat to snot before the battery finally ran out, I'm sad I lost track of it since then.
Got a Expedition Acadia Solar so I could get used to having an analog timepeice again with my "Smart Watch" suffering a weird screen failure, and a Digital Expidition that's a bit more retro styled like those early Ironman watches you showed, cheap though it may be the odd green metalic glint of the screen facinates me more than it should, it's seems I've started a inexpensive watch collection, and the only really "expensive" thing I want is a Bulova Lunar Pilot, *this is more fun that it should be*
Dope episode. I love my Timex world time. Great quality and features for les than 30$? And i honestly grab that piece more often than i thought i was going to.
Great Video! I love my Timex Indiglos. Rolex may be the watch that can get you home if you’re stranded abroad, but who would take a Rolex to a place where they fear being stranded? I’ve been all over Africa, Middle East, and less developed parts of Asia packing only my Timex. I enjoy my Swiss watches at home; but on the road, I want a tough reliable timepiece that doesn’t make me a target. And, at about $35 on Amazon; I don’t worry about scratches either.
Totally agree when you’re on the road in some tough places don’t make yourself a target. Leave your expensive watches at home.
Nicely done. Great research and writing. Your best episode yet?
You did not mention the Timex Electric watch which came out around 1970 and cost less than $25. My grandfather bought one when it first came out and I still own it today.
Timex tachymeter is a absolutely underrated and somewhat rare timex such a cool watch!
