Timex 400 series are some of the most sought after vintage watches. They differ from other typical Timex of their era in that they do not house one of Timex in-house movements. Instead this model contains a Seiko-Hatori movement which is arguably a better caliber than the mostly non-jeweled pin and plate movements used in most Timex.

Timex 400 watches are notorious for suffering dial damage either on the edge or around the center of the dial. Collectors should try and find unspoiled dials where possible.

The case is gold plated and houses a domed acrylic crystal. The dial is white with alternating arabic and stick markers embossed in gold. The edge of the dial has a printed seconds track and lume pips every 5 seconds. The hands are simple and gold. Printed on the dial are the words TIMEX, 400 and 17 jewel
