An environmentally friendly outdoor watch

 Timex has launched a new line, "Expedition North," which is an updated version of the outdoor line "Expedition" that was launched in the 1990s. The collection aims to extend the product life by incorporating higher quality and environmentally friendly materials and functions, and at the same time, the design has been optimized.

 In today's world, where efforts are being made to address increasingly serious environmental issues, led by the SDGs, which are a serious effort to create a ``sustainable society'' where people and nature coexist, it can be said that Timex has taken a step forward.

 In addition, the strap is made of eco-leather produced using DriTan™ technology, a new technology developed by ECCO Leather that minimizes the amount of chemicals used in the production of leather straps.

 The two watches have different impressions depending on whether or not the stainless steel case is coated, and the straps are different, but what they have in common is that they are both environmentally friendly. They are also in a price range that will likely put some strain on your wallet, so if you're interested, it's worth checking them out.

The “EXPEDITION NORTH” logo on the crown was created by Draplin Design Co., the well-known graphic design company behind the Chicago-based notebook brand Field Note.
