Timex has expanded its Marlin lineup in the US with four new quartz-powered watches. These additions feature matching stainless steel bracelets and a smaller case size that reflects the industry’s ongoing trend toward more compact watch dimensions.
Design and Pricing
The release includes four distinct colorways. Three of the models feature silver-tone stainless steel cases and bracelets, priced at $219: a black sunray dial (TW6A04200), a pink sunray dial (TW6A03900), and an ice blue dial (TW6A03800).
The fourth model (TW6A04000) opts for a champagne sunray dial paired with a gold-tone stainless steel finish, which brings the price up slightly to $239.
Internally, these models bypass the mechanical movements found in some of the more expensive Marlin reissues. Instead, they rely on standard SR626SW battery-powered quartz analog movements.
The hardware dimensions include the 34mm case diameter, a 41mm lug-to-lug distance, and a 10.5mm thickness. Each watch weighs just under 70 grams.
For the crystal, Timex is using a vintage-style domed acrylic rather than sapphire or mineral glass. While acrylic is more susceptible to daily scuffs, it maintains the 1960s aesthetic and can be polished at home to remove minor scratches.
The dials feature applied metallic indices, a mix of Arabic numerals and partial markers, and luminous in-fill on the hands for basic visibility in low-light conditions.
The watches ship with an 18mm brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet secured by a deployant clasp, designed to fit wrist circumferences between 5.6 and 8.1 inches. Water resistance is capped at 30 meters, meaning the watches can handle hand-washing or light splashes, but they are not built for swimming or submersion.
Availability
The new 34mm Marlin Quartz collection is available now directly through the Timex US website. At the time of writing, the black dial version is listed as a pre-order, while others are up for purchase.
