If you think Timex has only been tapping into its classic vintage past, think again. This time, they’ve collaborated with Ghostly International, the popular indie and electronic music, art, and apparel company that’s about as modern and trendy as it gets. Rather than going in-house, Timex trusted Ghostly with the new watch’s design, and the result is both slick and very unique. The matte black-finished round brass case measures 40mm for ideal sizing, and its black dial gets peppered with “Ghostly International” lettering, hollow matte-grey hands, and a simple Ghostly logo. It’s all punctuated with a tough mineral crystal, a black leather strap, and a popping purple anodized crown.
