Just pointing out the obvious that this video is about how Timex watches are assembled but I clicked because I thought I would see how they are manufactured.

They should feature the manufacturing process in Cebu, Philippines since most of the production came from there.

This video is severely under nutritioned with respect to knowledge about watches

They called the movement 'The motor of the watch'

I am a huge Timex fan and collector, and am a proud American and think the American Documents watch series are beautiful, but paying $450 for a Quartz is a bit out of line. Having said that I still might do it. Yes, I'm addicted to collecting Timex. I currently own 30 plus. For the record I have nothing against Quartz watches. The watch I wear most is the Q Timex Coke Bezel. However, I own 4 Marlins and I'm glad Timex is making automatics and mechanical watches again.

Actually the American Documents series is made of US sourced parts as well as assembled in the USA. The only part that isn't American made is the Swiss movement because according to their website "there are no watch movements made with American parts that meet out standards yet". Which is a shame, considering that when the railroads were first popping up, American watches were the go-to for accuracy.

It's good to see America still make something

Why are you showing an automatic movement when the watch has a quartz movement inside?

That's a beautiful watch

This was fantastic

Love them and it looks cool!

Just took a look at the watch on their site. $500 for a Timex? I mean sure, it's got a Swiss movement, but it's still a quartz and it's not even a sapphire crystal, they are using some sort of Gorilla glass. I think Timex has been associated with Chinese made prices for way too long to justify this price range this quickly. Price it at $200 would be more reasonable. In the $500+ price range, I would just look at something like a Hamilton Automatic

I want this watch if it was more affordable. Too expensive for a quartz watch.

its not called the watches' "motor " its called a movement atleast get the terminology right before you go shooting

Beautiful watch, but a bit too large at 41 mm as you can see on the technician's wrist. Wish the American Documents were a 38 or 39 mm instead.

@@FriedMuffin0 The movement is *mostly* Swiss. Just barely Swiss enough to meet the legal definition of "Swiss Movement," meaning it's a Chinese ebauch finished in Switzerland. And while the case and stem is turned in the US, the steel itself is Chinese. If you want an actual all-US made Timex, you'll have to go to eBay and find a Marlin or Mercury manufactured prior to 1980. And guess what? They're actually mechanical movements instead of quartz, and they won't run you much over $40, unlike these overpriced $500 monstrosities.

Not weird at all since the device does tell time. A watch just simplifies the process, looks good as accessory, and a number of them(chronograph, divers, and etc) makes timing tasks/events easier than using the phone. Also there are back stories to many watch designs which are fun things to learn and appreciate.

I have a watch above my phone

I thought we were going to see a Timex being made but really we didn't

Why do they show videos of mostly mechanical watches without explaining the difference between quartz and mechanical?

Watch has a movement not a motor.

The "Made in America" is deceptive because they are using Swiss movements. In order words, they are using ETA and/or Sellita movements to assemble their watches. There are plenty of other watch companies around the world using generic Swiss movements for their watches and they are nothing special at all. They are more about design and marketing rather than watchmaking and mechanical engineering.

@FriedMuffin0

Well everything is made and assembled in America. The only thing that isn't American is the movement, which is swiss. They clearly mark it and distinguish it from one another on the dial. Maybe some day someone will make a good American made movement, but it takes a lot of time, research, and money for that.

They showed b roll of an automatic watch despite showing how a quarts watch is made. Great video nevertheless

After watching a couple minutes I realized that I was losing the knowledge of watches I already had going into it. Very poor research on the part of the author.

That’s the trouble with those fancy watches - batteries. Ensuring income from the sale of batteries, this way the watch was never paid for.

Movement made in the Philippines, band made in China. There. I saved you some time.

@Christopher Schuster That it's automatic doesn't mean that the watch is better. For 30 you can also get a timex or a casio with a cheaper movement but better quality than a chinese auto.

So they PUT DIALS and "case up" the watch. And then it's like ONLY $1500 JUST BECAUSE they spent 5 minutes assembling THE LAST BITS that are ALWAYS done by hand ANYWAY. Even in Switzerland and Japan. Nobody puts glass in NOT manually except for acrylic. Because that WON'T shatter easily and is usually reserved for digital watches. YOU WANT A REAL AMERICAN WATCH, BUY A PELTON. Bracelet all done TOTALLY in American by ONE GUY in a workshop. NO ROBOTS.

someone is giving me a tips, if you want to buy a watch, never buy from big owned company like LVMH, Kering, Franck Muller, Timex, Seiko, Swatch, Citizen etc. Always prefer a family/small owned like Patel Philippe, Rolex, Oris, Fortis Uhren, Ernest Borel, Casio or ACHI member (Académie Horlogère des Créateurs Indépendants). Some of my favourite ACHI watchmaker is Vincent Calabrese (Switzerland), Elysee, Nomos Glashütte, Rainer Nienaber (Germany), Maison Celadon (China) and Konstantin Chaykin (Russia)..
