Huckberry
I don’t think I’ve worn a watch since I was a kid, and I’m sure whatever watch I wore back then was made of plastic and had a cartoon character design. The truth is I’ve never felt comfortable having an expensive watch as an adult. I’m open to getting a nice one, but I don’t want to break the bank getting it. What perfect timing it is that Huckberry has a leather strap watch from Timex on sale that’s everything I could ever want, minus the cartoon dinosaur.

This Marlin® Automatic checks off all my boxes: simple, leather strap, water-resistant, a brand I know and trust, and a price that doesn’t make me nervous. Plus, it’s a look and design that feels timeless because it is timeless. This watch was inspired by the retro dial and hand design of Timex’s 1969 Viscount Collection.
I’m not judging anyone who spends hundreds, if not thousands, on a luxury watch. Live your life. But, if you’re like me and you want something a little more understated, then the Timex Marlin® is the watch for you.
