Men's Chronograph Quartz Watch Marlin Chrono

Now I have to admit I do have a soft spot for a nice heritage inspired watch. And this fits the bill perfectly. I have wanted to add a panda dial to my collection for a while and have looked at the black on white versions by other well known watch makers. Something I never quite round to buying as something else always came along that just caught my eye. I have in my collection an original 1970’s marlin hand wound and still keeps excellent time. A testament to Timex as a long standing maker of fine watches. I wasn’t sure I was going to like the silver dial at first as the white just has something special in the overall look, however I took the plunge and boy am I glad I did. This is a beautiful looking watch and definitely one of my favourite chronograph’s that will sit alongside my 1963 hand wound chronograph from a not so well known maker. So to the watch itself. The black sub dials on the silver do have a wonderful retro style along with the indices and numerals staying faithful to the originals as does the acrylic domed crystal as stated in the description that just adds to that vintage feel, unlike most modern watches this is not a huge lump on your wrist, more of statement, it has an elegance of bygone days when watches where discrete and served one purpose, that of telling the time. This does look and feel like a more expensive watch The overall finish is excellent and the casing is stainless steel that feels robust and sturdy. The start/stop button has a lovely mechanical click and feel when pressed. Seiko’s mechaquartze movement meaning the large chronograph second hand has a mechanical like sweep when running and a fly back when reset is pressed. The jubilee style bracelet is solid links and easy to adjust if not a little fiddly when replacing the pins. However once adjusted this feels very comfortable on my wrist. The only real gripe on the bracelet for me is no micro adjustment but the links are small enough to allow a good fit. I had to remove 6 links and this will allow for a slight swelling of my wrist as temperature fluctuates. I have ordered a vintage leather motorsport inspired strap to replace the bracelet which I believe will add to the vintage appeal. I have now added the marlin 3 hand to my wish list much to my dear wife’s displeasure. If your not convinced take a look at the review videos by some of the most respected watch geeks, This is a fabulous watch and if retro or vintage inspires you the this a great addition to any collection.

Much better looking in the flesh than in the photos. Good quality strap and an excellent time keeper. I particularly like the domed crystal and, for the price, it's a really good buy.

Excellent watch. Looks far more expensive than it is, and it's accurately manufactured. 40mm wide but looks good on a small wrist. 13mm high but a lot of this is the clear dome, so it doesn't look too chunky like some chronographs do. There are a few colourways avaible for this watch but I think this one (TW2W51500) is the best looking.

Great looking watch, looks stylish and modern. I need extra metal link for my thick wrist so I have ordered a black watch strap which looks great. The times metal strap has quick release too making changing over easy. Only other issue is the Timex UK website will not allow registration.

I’m loving it! It looks very premium. This is my first Marlin and it’s not the last.

Quite honestly not worth the hype or the price. Feels cheaply made. Doesn't even have basic glass, it feels like plastic and it scratches easily. The Chrono pushers feel awful, and the hand snaps back when reset. Constantly having to correct the date too. At least twice a week. For a watch of this price, you'd expect more for the money. 3 stars as it does actually look aesthetically pleasing, despite feeling cheap in hand.

Beautiful domed crystal, bracelet is decent, finishing is great for the price. Button pushers are good. The small seconds hand ticks as it is a quartz movement, but the chrono seconds looks more like a mechanical movement at 5 ticks per second. If you want a classy looking chronograph and you don't have a few grand lying around for a Hamilton or nicer, this is a great shout.

I can't recommend this watch enough, great quality all around, beautiful dial, lovely bracelet. You will not be disappointed!

Eine ausgesprochen schicke Uhr. Es gibt so gut wie nichts daran auszusetzen. Der einzige Punkt, auf den man achten sollte, ist vielleicht der Stil des Trägers; ansonsten sind Material, Verarbeitung, Größe, Farbe, Anordnung der Knöpfe ... einfach alles tadellos.

Riesce ad essere raffinato e allo stesso tempo casual. Molto più bello dal vivo che in foto

For the money you can't go wrong.
