Okay, so I’ve been eyeing this Timex x James Brand watch collab for a while now. I finally pulled the trigger and got my hands on one, and let me tell you, it was a bit of a journey. Here’s how it all went down.

First, I started by doing some serious digging online. I read every review I could find, watched a bunch of videos, and compared it to other watches in the same price range. It’s not exactly cheap, so I wanted to make sure I was making the right call.
After all that research, I was pretty much sold. I liked the minimalist design, the titanium case, and the fact that it was a limited edition. I placed my order on the Timex website, and then the waiting game began. It felt like forever, but finally, I got the shipping notification.
Unboxing Time
When the package arrived, I was like a kid on Christmas morning. I grabbed a knife and carefully sliced through the tape. Inside, there was a sleek black box with the Timex and James Brand logos. Pretty fancy, I must say.
I opened the box, and there it was, the watch in all its glory. It looked even better in person than in the pictures. The titanium case had a nice matte finish, and the dial was super clean and easy to read. I picked it up, and it felt surprisingly light, which is a good thing for an everyday watch.
Putting it On
I strapped it on my wrist, and it fit perfectly. The strap was made of some kind of durable fabric, and it felt comfortable right away. I spent the next few minutes just admiring it, turning my wrist this way and that to catch the light. Yeah, I was pretty stoked.

Wearing it Around
I’ve been wearing this watch every day for a couple of weeks now, and I’m really digging it. It’s held up great, even after a few accidental bumps and knocks. The automatic movement seems to be keeping good time. I haven’t had to adjust it yet. The lume is also pretty decent. It’s not the brightest, but it’s enough to read the time in the dark.
Final Thoughts
So, overall, I’m super happy with my Timex x James Brand watch. It was definitely worth the wait, and I think it’s a great addition to my small but growing watch collection.
- Pros: Looks great, lightweight, comfortable, limited edition.
- Cons: A bit pricey, lume could be brighter.
If you’re thinking about getting one, I’d say go for it. Just be prepared to wait a bit for shipping. It’s not something you’re gonna find at your local department store, that’s for sure. It’s a solid piece, and I think it’ll last me for years to come.
