Timex 21

Vintage Timex watches marked with 21 on the dial are some of the earliest models produced. Manufactured from 1945 onwards, these models used the M21 manual wind movement.

Timex 21 watches are often confused with 21 jewel models which were produced much later in the 1960s onwards. Unlike the 21 jewel, the 21 is a non-jewelled watch that relies on Timex’s patented Armallow technology in place of traditional jeweled pivots.
