I wish they would put the 1972 reissue in the sale. I am not sure if it will wear too small for me and not worth the gamble at full price
Timex.co.uk have a sale on. These two Q's are reduced from £159 to £78.99 plus a further 20% off with code EXTRA20.

Excellent PSA.
Just bought the green/ yellow Timex Q, with the EXTRA20 for £63.20!
Thanks for sharing!
I always found these reissues really flimsy and insubstantial. Part of the retro charm, I suppose.
Same sale on the US site as well. Picked up one of these for $75 with free shipping. Thanks for sharing, Ruggertech

Received my Q reissue today. It’s a fun watch, but definitely not worth the RRP.
I think the £63 odd I paid is about the right price.

Looking thru their mens watches and new releases, you can see the brands that inspire their designers .
Looks like the extra 20% off has been removed now.

I rather enjoyed my time with the Pepsi one that was all the rage for a while. Could entertain another. But the bracelet was the worst hair-puller since the 90s Omega Dynamic.
I wore mine yesterday as a result of this thread and had a compliment on my lovely watch from a female colleague who used the words ‘very cool watch, I prefer that to the (BB58) you usually wear to the office. Looks old like you but in a good way’. I’ll take that from a 25 year old!
Wearing mine this morning. I disagree with some of the comments on here. I think it is worth the RRP. Happy that I paid £60 obviously. Doesn’t feel flimsy as mentioned in my opinion. That said, not sure how many hairs I will have left on my wrist by the end of today!

Love that colour combo Gav!
Whilst I have said I believe £60 is the real price its not a criticism, I believe a watch with a simple quartz mechanism, diver styling but no real water resistance should be about that price. I don't think they are flimsy, I have one of the first of the reissues (think I bought it on sc) and I still enjoy it and it still looks good. And like a previous poster who received positive comments from a colleague has found, it's one of the few watches I have ever owned that has had a few of those.
Enjoy it, great fun and value for £60, you could have wasted four times that or more on a plastic space watch! ;)
