Acrylic Crystal
A lightweight plastic polymer with excellent impact resistance and a warm vintage appearance that can be easily polished to remove scuffs.
Acrylic Crystal
Highly impact-resistant
Acrylic lens are a specialised form of plastic akin to Plexiglass and were commonly used in early to mid-20th century watches. It is a softer material that can be more prone to scratches but conversely is very shatter-resistant. Given its softness any scratches though can be buffed out. Acrylic lens are synonymous with vintage-inspired timepieces and thus can be found on our Marlin and Q Timex collections.

Nice aesthetically, but not super
"Nice aesthetically, but not super accurate. Face feels more scratch prone than it should be. A bit overpriced for what it is but overall quite cool."
This beats out watches that
"This beats out watches that cost many times its price. One of the few remaining amazing values in watches."
A beautiful little watch. For
"A beautiful little watch. For a while I had been looking for a small watch, that was as close as I could get to a Second World War US military issued watch. Most modern versions of those watches are too big,but this one feels just right. The fact it's also mechanical is a bonus as it helps keep the watch case slim. It would be nice if the movement was an American made one, instead of what I believe to be a Chinese Seagull mechanical movement, but perhaps in the future that may change."
One of the better releases
"One of the better releases of TimeX. For the money, dial construction is good, handset quality is good, case construction is good. they've also got the proportions just right. 36mm is goldilocks. After the last two decades of larger diameter watch trends, I am glad to see that TimeX is finally jumping on the more elegant vintage 36mm trend. Only thing I remove one star for is its movement. Although mechanical is one of the main reasons that i decided to buy this watch, but please, at least put a minimum Miyota 8210 with hacking in there. Seagull St6 is infamously unreliable with horrible isochronism."
For a classic style field
"For a classic style field watch for occasional wear, this model is just right for me personally. It has everything I wanted (sub-40 diameter, hand windable, NATO) and nothing I didn’t need (date, sapphire). I might have paid more for a Japanese movement."
Great Everyday Watch** I love
"Great Everyday Watch** I love the MK1® Hand-Wound 36mm with the fabric strap. The strap is super comfortable, and the 36mm size is just right — not too big or too small. It’s lightweight, which makes it perfect for all-day wear, and it keeps accurate time. Overall, a solid and stylish watch that’s become my go-to."
Overall, I'm really satisfied with
"Overall, I'm really satisfied with this brand new watch. It is one of the best 36mm watches. My hands and wrists are very small and thin. That's why this 36mm watch provides a perfect fit for me. Also this hand-wound automatic watch is very reasonably priced. Actually, I'm waiting for my shipping day for the US Air Force, 3rd of June. This military inspired watch gave me courage, passion and spirit of challenge."
The classic old military style
"The classic old military style field watch, hacking style that I’ve been waiting for. Great size for my smaller wrist and enjoy wearing this all the time in my field work glad to see this beautiful time piece offered"
Excellent watch. Glad to have
"Excellent watch. Glad to have added it to my collection. More accurate than I expected and I actually like the band it came with. One of my favorite most comfortable watches."
Q&A
- What Timex watch has a green slip through strap? My watch has A black background, 94 and water Resistant on the back of the green metal housing.
- Hi Nancy! Based on your description — a green slip-through strap, black dial, and water-resistant case — it sounds like you may be referring to a Timex Expedition Camper or Expedition Field-style model. These watches often feature green fabric slip-through straps and minimalist black dials.
- I guess my previous question was misunderstood. Where is the movement made, is it a swiss, japanese or Chinese movement? Is it an nh, miyota or seagull?
- Hello David! Thank you for clarifying your question. The MK1 Hand‑Wound 36mm Fabric Strap Watch is powered by a China Hand‑Wound mechanical movement. It uses a reliable Chinese hand‑wound caliber designed for straightforward functionality. This makes it a simple, classic choice for those who enjoy winding their watch daily and appreciating traditional mechanical timekeeping.
- What movement is used in this watch?
- Hi David! Thank you for asking about the MK1® Hand-Wound 36mm. This watch uses a mechanical hand‑wound movement, meaning it requires winding by hand to keep running, unlike quartz watches that are battery powered. It’s a classic choice for those who enjoy the tradition of winding their watch and the charm of mechanical timekeeping.
- Does the crown screw down?
- Hey Caleb! The crown of the MK1® Hand-Wound 36mm Fabric Strap Watch does not screw down. Let us know if you need further details!
