Timex x Todd Snyder MK-1 Sky King

The new Timex x Todd Snyder MK-1 Sky King watch is a must-have for any watch enthusiast who appreciates the utilitarian style of standard-issue timepieces worn by American servicemen. This latest collaboration between Timex and Todd Snyder is based on an archival style from the late 1960s, making it as close to a vintage field watch as you can get without time travel.

One of the main features of the Sky King is its chronograph function, which is added to the vintage styling of the original design. The watch includes three sub-dials that can be started, stopped, and returned to zero by manipulating the stem. One sub dial tracks hours, another minutes, and the third seconds. This added functionality gives the watch a modern touch while still keeping its vintage aesthetic.

The watch operates on a Quartz Movement and is available in two dial colorways: black and blaze orange. Other design details include a Domed Acrylic Crystal, luminant hands, a 42MM case and 20mm lug. The watch is also water resistant up to 50 meters, making it suitable for various activities. Additionally, the olive canvas strap is made of recycled clothes, finished with a genuine leather tan lining, which is not only eco-friendly but also sustainable.

The Sky King is the perfect combination of vintage style and modern functionality. It has all the features you would expect from a high-end watch, including a durable quartz movement, water resistance, and a chronograph function, all in a package that is true to the vintage aesthetic of the original MK-1 design. If youre looking for a watch that seamlessly blends vintage style and modern functionality, the Timex x Todd Snyder MK-1 Sky King is the perfect choice.
