When looking through vintage Timex watch catalogs, brochures and ads, this watch is unique in that it has its own section labelled Calendar. Shown here with a champagne dial but available in different colors, this watch has a square tank style case that is gold plated. The dial has gold printed markers and a cross-hair design. Again unique to this model of Timex watches is a date window at the 4 o-clock position. This aperture is trapezoid shaped and has a printed black border. You do not see a trapezoid date window again until the late 1970s. The hands are gold plated. Printed on the dial is the word TIMEX.

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).
