Timex has always been my preferred brand for watches for many years. Seriously. I was not paid to say that. I had a Timex watch for over ten years, it was water resistant and I loved it, but one day it just stopped working. A new battery did not even revive it. Its life was over and I just never replaced it for one reason or another, but mostly because I did not like most of the ones on the market. Until….
I received a beautiful Timex watch that features genuine Swarovski crystals. It is a watch that can be dressed up with a party gown or dressed down with a casual outfit worn at home. It is a classy piece of jewelry.
The strap is roomy with nine holes. I have to wear mine on the fifth hole. It holds up well to getting a bit of moisture on it, but the timepiece itself is sadly not waterproof or water resistant. So moms beware of that and take it off for dish washing, giving the little ones a bath, watering your flowers or washing the car.
What you might not see in the photo is the textured pattern of the leather strap. If my camera was better I could post a picture of the “Genuine Leather” stamp on the inside of the strap too, but alas my camera does not take very good close ups.
This watch features:
o 52 Genuine Swarovski Crystals
o Stainless Steel Case
o Genuine Leather Strap
o Mineral Glass Crystal
o Polished Finish
The retail price of this watch is $90. Watches from the Timex Women’s Crystal Collection are available on Timex.com.
