Description: Vintage 1970s TIMEX Falcon Eye Q Blue Dial, Stainless Steel Band (Approx. 6.75”) – Running Well, Slight WearItem Description: Up for auction is a stunning vintage TIMEX Falcon Eye Q, believed to be from the mid-1970s (exact year unknown, estimated between 1975-1978). This iconic watch features a beautiful, vibrant bright blue dial that still pops with color after all these years, paired with a stainless steel band that complements its bold look. The watch has recently had a new battery installed and has been keeping time perfectly for the past week. Condition: Watch Case: Shows light scratching, typical for its age, but nothing that detracts from its overall charm.Crystal: In excellent condition with minimal scratching, and the square bevel is sharp and intact, adding to the watch's vintage appeal.Date Function: I attempted to set the date, but unlike modern watches, this model doesn’t feature a quick-set function. It requires patience to adjust, and while I was able to move the day feature with multiple spins of the crown, I can't confirm whether the date function is fully operational.Band: The stainless steel band is in good shape with some scratching but is slightly smaller than average, measuring approximately 6 3/4 inches in length. It’s functional, though the clasp doesn't click into place with the same firmness as newer models. Instead, it closes securely but with a more laid-back "lay on band" feel.Overall: Despite some wear and small quirks, this is a beautiful example of the Timex Falcon Eye, a watch that holds historical significance and remains an eye-catching piece today.Measures Approx 38MM Additional Notes: The Timex Falcon Eye has been reissued in modern versions, but the newer releases come with the less desirable jubilee band—which I jokingly refer to as the "Timex arm hair puller" due to its design! The original stainless steel band here is much more comfortable in comparison.As with any vintage item, please expect signs of wear consistent with age.and potential servicing. This is a great chance to own a piece of Timex history, perfect for collectors or anyone who appreciates classic watches with character. Don't miss out on this iconic model!
