This square cased dive watch is large on the wrist compared to other Timex divers of this era. I’ve classified this as a Marlin due to this. The bezel for these models is a different size to other models and is larger than the Sprite, but smaller than a standard Marlin. As a result collectors should opt for a complete watch or run the risk of having an incomplete one for a very long time.

Hi, My name is Mark Rushworth AKA Timetrope on Social Media. Ive been collecting Timex watches for a little over three years. From day one the community of collectors have been very patient and generous for the most part which has kept my interest and engagement in the hobby.

'Ive set up this website partly as a way of cataloging my collection and its many gaps, and as a way of paying forwards the kindness offered to me by Knut, Ian and others (you know who you are).
