Timex 1978 Day Date Fume Dial Reissue Watch TW2Y87200

The Watch

The Timex 1978 Day-Date Reissue watch showcases a design that proudly honors the timeless elegance of a bygone era. This men's timepiece features a stainless steel case in yellow, measuring 37 mm in diameter and 13.50 mm thick. The tonneau-shaped case paired with a polished, high-shine finish gives this watch a sophisticated, refined look. The dial is protected by a domed plexiglass crystal, ensuring excellent legibility and effective dial protection. The screw-down case back further enhances its water resistance and long-term durability.

The Dial

The dial of this watch stands out with its brown tone and smoked, gradient finish for a look that's understated yet polished. The hands indicating hours, minutes, and seconds are elegantly arranged over a minute-track style index layout. The dial is subtly enriched with a date and day window positioned at 3 o'clock.

The Movement

At the heart of this Timex watch beats a quartz movement - delivering unmatched precision and proven reliability. This type of movement is valued for its longevity and low maintenance requirements compared to mechanical alternatives.

The Strap

The brown cowhide leather strap with its striking crocodile pattern amplifies the watch's refined aesthetic. It fastens with a classic, secure pin buckle, keeping the watch firmly on the wrist while making adjustment a breeze. The 20 mm lug width is perfectly proportioned to the case, adding to the watch's overall comfort and ergonomics.

Water Resistance

With 5 ATM water resistance, the Timex 1978 Day-Date Reissue offers basic protection against accidental water splashes in everyday life - including light rain and hand-washing. That said, this watch is not designed for swimming or more intensive water activities.
