The Timex Camper MK1 was designed to withstand damage and then be discarded after a brief period of use; it’s no wonder that this timepiece was issued to folks in the US Army back in 1982. To commemorate its 30th anniversary, the American heritage watch brand is bringing back a remastered version of the Camper along with an additional strap and a fitting army green-colored watch holder. The watch itself boasts a 36mm case, a classic 12/24 hour dial, INDIGLO lume and 50M water resistance.

The watch is available to purchase at END. for $99 USD.
