timex1.jpgMy very first watch was a Timex with a red strap. I loved it. And then, one day, I left it on top of the boiler and all the numbers faded away. Sniff.

So this three-dial Timex at Red Direct warms my heart a little (but not as much as the boiler warmed my watch, obviously). Also available in tan, it costs £80.
