This year, The New Yorker is celebrating 100 years. To mark the occasion, they teamed up with Timex for a very special version of their handwound Marlin, complete with a familiar-feeling dial.
Timex | The New Yorker: what it is
This is another iteration of the 34mm hand-wound Marlin (full collection). The big callout on this version is going to be that dial. This takes inspiration from the magazine’s Goings On section, and even has the New Yorker logo taking the place of the Timex logo on the dial. Fittingly for the look, you’ve got a stick handset, and the watch comes with both a leather and nylon NATO strap.
What Timex says about the watch
The Timex | The New Yorker is a modern-day reissue of our iconic ‘60s Marlin hand-wound watch, presented in a beautifully rounded 34mm case. It’s offered as a limited-edition gift set with both a leather strap and a fabric strap, providing the versatility of two styles in one.
The striking black-and-white watch face showcases a white dial, as well as art inspired by the magazine’s famed Goings On section, created by Christoph Niemann, a prominent illustrator whose work has appeared in The New Yorker since 1998.
Complementing the dial artwork is a customized bagel second hand that playfully nods at New York City’s culinary heritage, while the brushed and polished case back features the watch’s edition number and the magazine’s centennial anniversary logo, both engraved in crisp detai
Wrapping things up
The Timex | The New Yorker is available as of today for $249, which is a slight premium over the other 34mm hand-wound Marlins. That said, you are getting two straps with it, so things are about a wash there. For all the New Yorker fans out there, you can go ahead and order yours directly from timex.com
