Rugged Roots, Timeless Reliability: Meet our latest MK1 watches

The MK1 collection is a direct embodiment of the values we’ve upheld since the beginning, and one of the no-nonsense, military-inspired throwbacks that stays true to the Timex archives. Our MK1 watches are an old-fashioned interpretation of our first Timex Camper watch from the ‘80s, comfortable and reliable with just the right amount of heft.

Now, we’re reviving this beloved collection with three new styles that reimagine its military aesthetic with modern upgrades. The MK1 Automatic introduces a reliable automatic movement and a two-piece fabric strap with durable leather backing, using a tough fabric originally crafted for military use. Meanwhile, the MK1 Hand-Wound pays homage to tradition with a nostalgic hand-wound movement, and the MK1 Resin adds an energizing pop of color, blending functionality with a more contemporary style. Together, these three new offerings bring a fresh perspective to a classic favorite while preserving the rugged authenticity the MK1 is known for.

This update to our beloved MK1 features a blue-tinted exhibition window on the case back that reveals the reliable Japanese automatic movement ticking inside. The 40mm stainless steel case and domed acrylic crystal encase a sleek black dial with both 12 and 24-hour Arabic indices and luminant hands for enhanced visibility. Choose between a green or sand two-piece Cordura® fabric top layer strap with leather backing, featuring quick-release spring bars for effortless strap changes on the go.
