Timex Watches is marking the 50th anniversary of its first quartz watch range with the Q Timex 1972 Reissue. The new watch comes complete with retro design codes of the original, including a vintage gold-toned stainless steel case and floating hour markers.
For Timex design director Giorgio Galli, it was important to faithfully recreate every detail from the original watch. ‘It was essential to pull from our archives for the details of the attachment, dial, and battery hatch. More so, we wanted to keep the integrity and authenticity intact as well, so that it feels like it would have in that era.
This new Q Timex 1972 Reissue encompasses the design codes of that time, from the deep red hue of the dial to the domed acrylic crystal and the coin slot battery hatch on the underside. ‘The major challenge was to maintain all the details of the original watch, and not just reproduce them. We wanted to make sure the soul of each watch was maintained as if it was just discovered in a drawer, left there intact since the 1970s.
