At its most basic, men’s style can be boiled down to two camps: those who side with tradition, and those who side with trend.
The traditionalists stick to the tried-and-true, know what they like and value timeless style. The trendsetting crowd crave novelty, put their faith in progress and keep an eye on the latest trends and gadgets.
Timex has watches for both.
So before you draw up your various and sundry holiday lists this season, we put together a little cheat sheet to their offerings. No matter which you choose, you can count on two things: exceptional craftsmanship and unbeatable value.
