When it comes to affordable watches that look great, the collaborations between Timex and New York clothing label Todd Snyder have been some of the very best in recent years. We’re less than a month into the year, but the duo are already back at it with the release of an all-new model for Timex called the MK-1 Sky King, which takes the classic pilot’s chronograph design and adds a pop of classic Todd Snyder colour.
The partnership between Timex and Todd Snyder dates all the way back to 2016 when the two American brands collaborated on the MOD watch, which was another military-inspired timepiece that arrived on a NATO strap. This function-forward and heritage-inspired approach to watch design returns with the Todd Synder x Timex MK-1 Sky King, arriving with 42mm stainless steel cases in your choice of either orange or black.
Highly legible, water resistant to 50m and boasting a chronograph subdial layout inspired by a Timex design from the late 1960s, the new MK-1 Sky King delivers from every angle. If you ever needed proof that you don’t need to spend thousands to get a great-looking watch on your wrist, the Sky King collaboration between Timex and Todd Snyder is all the evidence you need.
