Q Timex 38mm Reissue vs. Timex M79 Automatic Watch Review

Q Timex 38mm Reissue vs. Timex M79 Automatic Watch Review

Nick Lehner

It wasn't until I started learning more about the Timex catalog that I realized that there is an automatic version of the Q. The M79 is about $110 more than its Quartz sibling. Is it worth paying for the upgrade?

Although technically not part of the Q line, the Timex M79 Automatic shares the desirable design DNA with the Q Timex. On paper, it is a strong competitor to the Seiko 5KX. Is this a watch that enthusiasts should consider more seriously?

Q Timex Three Time Zone Chronograph Watch Review - White and Black - TW2V70100VQ and TW2V69800VQ

Q Timex Three Time Zone Chronograph Watch Review - White and Black - TW2V70100VQ and TW2V69800VQ

The Three Time Zone Chronograph has a more modern look than other Q Timex models. The dial looks modern, with round, raised indices with large lume plots. It loses some of the charm, but adds a GMT function that is a bit quirky. Does it belong in the Q Timex line?

Typically I give an intro about why I bought the watch. In the case of the Q Timex, I noticed that there was a lack of replacement straps . I decided to buy one with a rubber strap to review and also see if StrapHabit could develop a replacement strap. Read on to learn about the watch, and the straps!

Most recently, I visited a Swatch store, and the Earth variant was the most interesting one available. I thought that it would be fun to experience the funkiest case color.
