T80 34mm Stainless Steel Bracelet Watch
About the original
The Timex T80 is a 34mm digital watch that reissues one of Timex's first digital models from 1979, with a stainless steel case and expansion bracelet, Indiglo electroluminescent backlight, digital chronograph accurate to 1/100 second, alarm, day/date display, and 30-meter water resistance. Timex traces its lineage to the Waterbury Clock Company, founded in Waterbury, Connecticut in 1854, and introduced its first LCD digital watch in 1974 out of its Advanced Research Laboratory. The T80 reissue maintains the original case proportions and rectangular LCD layout. The Supreme FW2019 collaboration was priced at $68, below the standard $75 retail, with co-branded dial printing and packaging.
About Timex
Timex Group USA is an American watchmaker descended from the Waterbury Clock Company, founded in 1854 in Waterbury, Connecticut. The company mass-produced dollar pocket watches in the late 1800s, manufactured fuzes during both World Wars, and relaunched as Timex in 1969. Its 1950s advertising campaign featuring John Cameron Swayze and the slogan Takes a Licking and Keeps on Ticking established the brand's reputation for durability. Current lines include the Marlin mechanical reissue, the Expedition outdoor series, the Ironman sports watch, and the Q Timex 1970s-style diver. Supreme collaborated with Timex on co-branded sport watches.
