excuse me, do you have the time?

Ever since I started working, I've found that my watches have become more than just wrist candy -- they're crucial. I'm totally OCD, and I have to match my watch to my jewelry -- gold or silver. I recently saw a Timex watch, and did a SERIOUS double take.

When did they completely re-brand themselves!? I remember Timex being a hokey brand that you would wear as a child, and they had velcro straps. Anyone? Well, they've outdone themselves and are competing with the likes of Michael Kors and Marc Jacobs.

I die.

I need to get several of these stat. And guess what? They are extremely well priced. About $70 for each. I think I may be adding a few of these to my collection in the coming weeks.

Which one do you fancy? I'm setting my eyes on the large gold face and black leather band.

    Whoa you're right! I used to think of Timex the same way you did-- their new ones are gorgeous!
