40mm Synthetic Rubber Strap Watch

Automatically An Icon

Our M79 Automatic is something entirely new, even though it might look familiar. Inspired by the 1970s Q Timex® and elevated with a 21-jewel automatic movement, this watch is a fresh interpretation of a much-loved Timex icon. The 40-hour power reserve of its Japan-made, self-winding, automatic movement is energized by your motion and can also be wound manually by using the crown. We’ve updated it with a perforated and textured black synthetic rubber strap that offers an athletic style and soft-to-the-touch comfort. This watch also features a black unidirectional bezel, a deep champagne dial, luminous dial markings, sturdy 40mm stainless-steel case, day of the week and date window, and an exhibition case back, making it a modern timepiece that captures the bold spirit of an era that changed everything.

Mechanical Automatic Movement

Automatic watches have no battery. Instead, these ""self winding"" movements use the natural movement of your wrist as a power source.

Mechanical Automatic

Powered by You

A mechanical automatic movement winds itself using the natural motion of your wrist — a rotor inside spins as you move, storing energy in a mainspring. This spring slowly releases power through a precise series of gears and an escapement, driving the hands in a smooth, sweeping motion. It’s a self-sustaining engine, no battery required. When worn daily, it stays powered continuously — keeping perfect time without needing to be reset.

It is a softer material that can be more prone to scratches but conversely is very shatter-resistant. Given its softness any scratches though can be buffed out.
