Marlin Automatic Watch TW2W58800

The Watch

Founded in 1854 in Waterbury, Connecticut, Timex has earned its place in watchmaking history through creativity and a pioneering spirit. The brand made its mark by creating the world's first sports watch and introducing Indiglo, a groundbreaking nighttime illumination feature for watches of its era. Today, Timex offers a wide range of quality watches for different styles and current trends. Its Automatic Watch TW2W58800 from the Marlin collection is a striking example. The stainless steel case has a curved cushion shape and measures 39 mm in diameter and 9 mm in thickness. It sits comfortably on men's wrists. Its polished finish gives it a bright shine, while brushed details add visual appeal. An acrylic crystal offers a clear view of the dial. At 3 o'clock, a knurled crown lets you adjust the watch's functions. The transparent, screw-secured case back features a detailed engraving of the iconic marlin fish. It reveals the movement inside and provides water resistance of 5 atmospheres.

The Dial

This watch's dial offers a clear analog display. Its black background has a brushed finish that adds character. A minute track and Arabic numeral markers run around the edge for precise time reading. For added functionality, a white-background window at 3 o'clock displays the date, while a subdial at 9 o'clock shows the 24-hour time. At the center, two hands are coated with a luminescent treatment so you can read the hours and minutes in the dark. A slim seconds hand joins them. The movement type appears at 6 o'clock, while the brand places its name and the collection name below 12 o'clock as its signature.

The Movement

The watch is powered by a Japanese automatic movement. Made by Miyota, this movement is known for its efficiency and quality. It provides a precise display of the hours, minutes, seconds and date.

The Strap

This watch comes with a sleek, modern bracelet. Made from stainless steel, it has a polished/brushed finish that highlights its silver-tone color. It has a lug width of 20 mm and a deployant clasp with two push buttons to keep it secure on your wrist. The bracelet pairs easily with any outfit and adds an elegant finishing touch.

Water Resistance

This watch offers water resistance of 5 atmospheres, or 50 m. Designed to look sharp, it can also handle some exposure to water. You can wear it in the shower, though the Ocarat team recommends leaving it by the sink to help preserve its finish and condition. We strongly advise against wearing it while swimming or scuba diving, as this could damage the watch and lead to repair costs.
