Update: Timex 1600 Exclusively for J. Crew

On November 17, 2012, in Accessories, by Ryan & Ben

Back in January of last year, we posted about the Timex 1600 that was made exclusively for J. Crew.  Well, we never pulled the trigger, yet the watch has lingered in the back of our minds ever since. Thanks to a great discount code (MUSTHAVE) on all sales items that is valid through tomorrow, and the recent addition of the 1600 to the sale rack, this watch will soon go from our minds to our wrists.  If you’ve been waiting to pick one up, now is the time.  The post below originally ran on January 11, 2011.

When it comes to men’s accessories or jewelry, we tend to take a less is more approach.  In fact, most days the extent of our jewelry is a wedding band and watch.  While we know that many of you aren’t going to be on the market for a wedding band anytime soon, a good looking watch is something you should always keep an eye out for.  There are tons of great timepieces on the market, but if you are on a budget we recommend the Timex 1600 (**Now $129.50) available exclusively at J. Crew.

Named in honor of a big house in the middle of Washington, DC, the 1600 is inspired by the classic styles of those who have been fortunate enough to call 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. their home over the years.  The stainless steel case and “pale silver-white brushed metallic dial” are nicely complimented by a croc print leather band for a timeless look.  Of course, since it is a Timex, the 1600 is going to be able to stand up to daily wear and keep perfect time.  This battery powered watch is water resistant up to 50M and is a fantastic blend of classic looks paired with modern construction.
