American watchmaker Timex has launched the 'Timex Expedition North Solar' collection, a range of practical, solar-powered wrist watches delivered in a minimalist military style.
Made to be worn and weathered, the timepieces included in the 'Timex Expedition North Solar' collection boast a range of robust and pragmatic features. Thanks to its solar-powered technology, the battery actually charges while the watch is worn outdoors, while its quartz movement ensures durable, long-lasting mechanics. In addition, the watch is equipped with 100 meters of water resistance, sapphire crystal, and a steel case with a sleek matte finish.
The 'Timex Expedition North Solar' watches come in two sizes -- 41mm or 36mm -- and are being offered in a variety of color coatings, as well as bare steel.
