Timex can trace its roots back to 1854 when they were the Waterbury Clock Company of Connecticut. At the time, numerous clock makers were operating out of Connecticut. Timex is the only company from that region that is still in business. The company changed its name to Timex in 1941.
The company is known for hard working, long lasting watches. Their slogan “Takes a lickin’ and keeps on tickin” was very popular in the 1960’s and 70’s. Timex has evolved and now also produces heart rate monitors, GPS watches, and other high tech devices. The company divided itself into several divisions, which all fall under the Timex Group USA name.
Timex employs approximately 2,000 persons and still has headquarters in Middlebury, Connecticut, where they have remained for more than 100 years.

I need a battery for my Timex that lights up when you push the dial, please
I bought (5-22-21) a watch like it (only it is gold instead of silver). I put it right on my wrist and only have the plastic tag with the UPC symbol. 17630 and another # T2H351. How long is the guarantee, please?

Dear Timex Executives, ran across a watch my husband bought for my daughter on our first date. I just had to let you know that after 39 years, it is still ticking… It was the “Snoopy” watch that was playing tennis with a tennis racket/ball. Don’t know if you are still producing that style but, it sure was a hit for us.

Several weeks ago I ordered a replacement strap for my Times Expedition. What arrived yesterday bares absolutely no resemblance to the original strap. More over it is dull grey in color instead of the tan that came with it when it was new. This replacement was also the wrong size–18mm. My original strap was 13/16 inches wide or 20.6375 mm. How do I get something that fits and is tan?
I’m returning this so-called replacement.
