Vintage Timex Mechanical – Date Window – Sunburst Dial – 31mm (1970s)
A charming early-1970s Timex with a warm sunburst dial, applied numerals, and a bright red seconds hand. This model features a hand-wound mechanical movement and a date window at 3 o’clock — simple, reliable, and full of mid-century character.
The woven gold nylon strap is a fun period-correct detail that completes the look. Crystal, case, and dial show light vintage wear consistent with age, but the watch winds smoothly and keeps time.
