Timex Celebrates 100 Years Of The New Yorker With A Collectible Marlin
Timex has teamed up with The New Yorker to commemorate the magazine’s 100th anniversary with a limited-edition Marlin reissue, restricted to just 1,854 units worldwide. This exclusive timepiece blends classic design with distinctive details that pay homage to the iconic publication, making it a must-have for watch enthusiasts and fans of The New Yorker alike.
Crafted with a stainless steel case measuring 34mm in diameter and 10mm in thickness, the watch showcases a predominantly polished finish, complemented by an acrylic crystal, straight lugs, and a recessed crown positioned at 3 o’clock. The solid case back is engraved with The New Yorker’s centennial anniversary logo and an individual serial number, emphasizing its exclusivity. With a water resistance of 30 meters, the timepiece balances vintage aesthetics with everyday practicality.
The white dial is a standout feature, featuring artwork inspired by The New Yorker’s famous Goings On section, illustrated by Christoph Niemann. The New York City skyline takes center stage, accompanied by black Arabic numerals from 10 to 2 o’clock, sleek pencil-style hands, and a whimsical custom seconds hand shaped like a bagel, paying tribute to the city’s renowned culinary culture. Brand logos are carefully positioned, with The New Yorker’s emblem at noon and Timex’s signature at 6 o’clock, enhancing the watch’s refined character.
Powering this special edition is a hand-wound mechanical movement, a detail that Timex keeps under wraps. However, many experts suggest it is the 17-jewel Seagull ST6, modified to remove automatic winding. Operating at 21,600 vibrations per hour, the movement delivers a power reserve of up to 36 hours, reinforcing the watch’s traditional mechanical charm.
The watch is paired with an 18mm black leather strap, complete with a branded stainless steel buckle, while an additional NATO fabric strap in grey, black, and white adds versatility. This commemorative Timex Marlin x The New Yorker edition is now available for €249, making it an accessible yet highly collectible piece that merges horological heritage with New York’s cultural legacy.
