Timex Continental

Produced in 1960 and 1961, the Timex Continental range of wristwatches was made up of 3 distinct watch designs.

  • A dark dial with “starfleet” markers and a red arrow tipped sweeping seconds hand.
  • A White dialled watch with arabic numerals at 12 and 6 o-clock
  • A dress watch with full arabic numerals.

Timex Continental watches look a lot like Mercury watches as they also have SHOCKPROOF printed on the dial. Continental watches are only identifiable due to their categorisation in the catalogs of the era.
