The watch is constructed with a 40mm case that's accented with a sugar skull motif on the dial to give it an ultra-vibrant profile to admire from afar. The timepiece is meant to act as a reminder to embrace life to the fullest and cherish memories, while its stylish profile will work well with a variety of outfits. The Timex Day of the Dead Weekender watch is paired with the brand's signature INDIGLO backlight technology and a black leather strap that's made with materials certified by the [Leather Working Group](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rag-bone1) ([LWG](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/derby-hiker)).
