We love watches for all sorts of reasons. Like any sort of love, there\u2019s not\u2014or at least, there should not be\u2014a formula for what does it for you. If you only care about high horology, I\u2019d say you\u2019re selling yourself short on all the fun cheap stuff. If you\u2019re obsessed with grey market prices, I\u2019d say you\u2019re better off buying gold bouillon if market speculation is your kink. If you\u2019re only interested in niche references and microbrands, I\u2019d say you\u2019re trying a little too hard to be different. The spot you want to be, as with everything, is somewhere in the middle. At that point you reach Nirvana. You can see a watch, understand there\u2019s nothing that makes it especially exemplary, and still say: This is fun; I love it. That\u2019s where I\u2019m at with these Timex Reissues.<\/p>\n

First of all, I\u2019m writing about them\u2014they being the Q Timex 1971 Velocity and the Timex World Timer, both from the Reissue line\u2014because they were just added to the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale at 33-per cent-off. They\u2019re infinitely cooler than the other watches in the sale, and the price cut is tempting me to pull the trigger on one or the other.<\/p>\n

My love for them, though, is down to the weirdness. The Timex Reissue program likes to keep a lot of the original design elements, and I think that makes it a great place to get something really funky for a decent price. Here, the World Time has that angular cushion case. And, using the actual world time function happens in a roundabout way since there are no numbers on the watch, besides your trapezoidal date window\u2014very \u201970s. The Velocity is a a more straightforward racing watch, but still stands out with that crosshairs dial, orange second hand, and checkered rubber band. They\u2019re both a cool little downshift from whatever your usual flexes or daily drivers happen to be.<\/p>\n

Like I said, not every watch you love needs to come with a thesis on why. I love these because: they\u2019re fun, they\u2019re off-beat, and they\u2019re cheap\u2014now, as cheap as you\u2019ll ever find them. Grab one and add a bit of whimsey to your rotation.<\/p>\n
