Fix Your Wrist Game with the New Timex X YMC MK1
Written by SOURCE on July 10, 2019
You Must Create complements the carefully crafted apparel line with a new collaboration with American watch brand Timex.
Characterised by their quality-driven wardrobe staples and deep colour palette, there is no doubting the high standards set by YMC from season to season. Subtly is an artform the brand has demonstrated with great efficiency, and to further bolster their efforts they’ve linked up with Timex for a limited edition takes on the iconic MK1 timepiece.
First issued to the US Marines in 1982, Timex’s MK1 came into the world as a disposable accessory, due to its closed case and inability to have batteries added. It is due to these limitations that the watch served its purpose as a mass-produced military product effectively. Fast forward to 2016 and Timex brought the model back into the spotlight with several upgrades that made the MK1 something to behold as opposed to disposing of, a new breathe of life that has led to this special collaboration. Built using a ‘burnt rubber brown’ palette – deeply rooted in the YMC DNA – the YMC x Timex MK1 perfectly executes the effortless style synonymous with YMC’s apparel lines.
The YMC x Timex MK1 is available now via YMC’s online store.
