Time pieces have always been an important piece of history
and human culture. It not only tells us time, but more importantly, it also
reminds us of what needs to be done in order to move forward. That’s why it’s
important for everyone to have their own watch to help keep track time.
For most people, the watch they own is a representation of their
personality, basically embodying the term “you
are what you wear”. For me, I’d like to believe that I’m a person who
pushes for innovation but still draws inspiration from the successes and
experiences of past generations – like the kind of person that combines the
ground-breaking and timeless designs. But so far in terms of time pieces, I don’t
see many brands that follow the same perspective.
In the past century, the watch has gone through various
makeovers and has incorporated various new technologies to become more than
just an object that tells time. But it’s very seldom that you see a watch
design that apart from being innovative retains the classic and timeless
designs of the past. The ones that do have remained untouchable and remain
exclusive to the ultra-rich.
Timex is one watch maker that has managed to create a
product with innovative features with a timeless design and something that
wouldn’t necessarily break your bank. Timex’s Adventure Series Linear Indicator
Chronograph with Intelligent Quartz technology is one such example of the many
pieces in the company’s line-up that possesses such qualities.
The watch delivers ingenious solutions to consumers with redesigned
dials in neon colours, water resistance up to 100M as well as chronograph and
calendar functionality and yet it exudes a classic style with a stainless steel
case with black finish that features engraved numbers and labels.
And unlike those watches from Switzerland, the Timex
Adventure Series Linear Indicator Chronograph doesn’t cost millions. It has a
suggested retail price of Php13,790, which is actually an acceptable price for
something that offers the best of both worlds in terms of design and
functionality.
