TIMEX, whose sole distributor in Japan is Ueni Trading Co., Ltd., will begin accepting pre-orders for the Marmont, a reproduction of the cushion-shaped Q TIMEX watch released by TIMEX in 1975, on the brand's official online store and in select stores from Tuesday, May 25th, with the general release scheduled for early June. Additionally, a pop-up fair will be held at select stores, showcasing a wide variety of TIMEX watches, including the Marmont.

Marmont

 The quartz model released in 1975 has been reissued as the new "Marmont" in the "Q Timex" series. Like other "Q Timex" reissues, the "Marmont" faithfully reproduces the original appearance of the timepiece, featuring a 38mm cushion-shaped stainless steel case with a domed acrylic crystal and a battery replacement hatch on the case back. The strap is made of embossed genuine leather, and the buckle also reproduces the original shape to match the case.


Three new colors will be available from Friday, May 21st

The case features soft curves and a polished finish, featuring the slightly mischievous and cynical styling of the 70s known as "louche design" (reminiscent of the James Dean movie "Rebel Without a Cause") that was popular at the time of its release. While reinterpretations and revivals of flared denim and classic 70s and 80s sneakers have become popular with younger generations, the watch's unique and nostalgic design also makes it a recommended accessory for older generations.

Quartz movement. Stainless steel case (38mm diameter). Domed acrylic crystal. Water resistant to 5 ATM. Price: 23,100 yen (tax included).

 The unique name "Marmont" comes from the legendary five-star hotel Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, known as a social gathering place for Hollywood stars; the hotel where James Dean landed a major role, Leonardo DiCaprio had his birthday party, and Jay-Z and Beyoncé held private parties. Since opening in 1929, the hotel has been loved by celebrities for its splendor and hospitality.
