Vintage Kelton Skindiver watches are built differently than their Timex counterparts. The cases are slightly larger. The bezels are larger too. The case back instead of being snap-on is screw down. This amongst other improvements found on Kelton watches makes me believe that they are constructed to a higher specification than 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).
