Timex x Worn & Wound WW75 V2 Watch

A watch that looks good and costs little is the holy grail in our opinion here at The Coolector and it’s for that reason that we’re currently fawning over the ace-looking Timex x Worn & Wound WW75 V2 Watch available from the WindUp Store. This impressive-looking timepiece is both refined and understated and takes the same successful platform as last year’s collaboration between the two brands but, this time, pursues new colour palettes for an entirely different overall aesthetic.

Currently available for the bargain price of just $215, the WW75 V2 Watch from Worn & Wound and Timex is a riff on a case from the 70s that had only been used with a quartz movement previously but for this collaboration, they have changed up the dial adding colour and extra texture, added brushed finishing and polished bevels for a little extra visual impact on the wrist, and most importantly of course, added a manual wound mechanical movement. A great looking watch for an unbeatable price. Win, win.

The Timex x Worn & Wound WW75 V2 maintains the same dimensions as its predecessor, with a 37mm x 43mm case. Its height, including the domed acrylic crystal, measures 12.7mm, while the lug width is 20mm. Designed for versatility, the watch is well-proportioned and complements a range of wrist sizes. The dials showcase an intriguing play of colours and textures arranged in concentric circles. The central area exhibits a distinctive waffle texture, surrounded by a contrasting coloured ring that adds a vibrant touch. Applied indices elegantly bridge the two zones, fostering a seamless visual flow. Additionally, a rotating set of numerals for the minutes/seconds adds a touch of casual flair.

For the new release from Timex and Worn & Wound, two different but related directions were chosen. The first is a balancing act of blues. A light but confident blue fills in the centre of the dial, circled by a dark blue ring. Applied markers cross the boundary from one to another accented with pink and blue paint. Dark blue hour and minute hands with pink fill stand off the backdrop while the second hand is a white stick with a bright teal tip. Both versions are matched with steel mesh bracelets.
