Reply With QuoteThat’s such an obvious design rip-off it’s embarrassing! If it’s anything like the other Timex watches I own/have owned, it’ll feel a quarter of the quality of a Casio too!
Now I'm usually a big fan of Timex, cheap, fun, and usually cool designs (even if like most everyone else they often take a few styling ideas off others).
But this is a blatant Casioak rip off, with half the water resistance and costs about £30 more. Timex, really?

That must be under licence, surely?
You'd think so, but who knows?Originally Posted by catch21
Off the top of my head there is no other watch in their line up with a mechanical day indicator, analogue hands, and a digital display. Certainly not in that configuration. So developing a whole new movement with the risk of Casio coming down on them would seem like a stupid risk for a company like Timex. Chinese Aliexpress companies yes, but not an international household name business.
I am livid that there has been a rip off of a rip off.
Looks like a cheap rip off!
Indeed, except its crazily more expensive than the watch it is ripping off.
The only problem I have is with the price. Cannot imagine how they justify making it substantially more expensive than the Casioak. If it was £60 or so, that would make more sense. Especially with SHOCK printed on the bezel, Casio style.
oh i cant wait for the full metal version that will be released after the non genuine mods come out LOL
Doesn't surprise me. A tried and tested business model from San Martin.
Would have loved to have been in the design meeting for this design....lol
Seconded.
Every watch a story.
