Timex Heritage Watch

I've gotten more inquiries this week regarding a Timex watch I posted on Tumblr than anything else so I figured I'd highlight it here for anyone who believes one site run by me is already more than enough.  I stumbled upon this timepiece while searching for Timex's Oversize Camper, which was supposed to drop in July, but has yet to show up in to many places - it is available on Timex's Canadian site and in store at select Nordstrom locations.  Anyhow, when I was browsing Nordstrom's Timex stock I found a model I had never seen before.  The Heritage watch is a pretty good looking number coming in at under 100 bones.  That's kinda pricey for anything Timex (especially when you can get a Camper for like $20), but still a cool looking option for those of you in the market for a new watch.  Part of me thinks that some of the pricepoint is dictated to the "topstitched, leather-lined canvas strap" it comes with, which is quite the buzzkill for anyone who planned on switching in a fresh NATO first and foremost.  If you're the kinda guy who has mulled over dropping north of a Benjamin on another Timex at, say, J. Crew you might want to do some browsing first.  As one can imagine, the "upscale" Timex market isn't incredibly deep, but that doesn't mean you can't find some handsome watches with a little digging.  I did an admittedly half-assed search to find this watch on the cheap (Amazon, Timex.com, etc.), but couldn't locate it elsewhere.  Who knows, maybe it will show up at J. Crew.
