We all know what good watch design looks like, and the Q Timex is exactly that: a classic, recognizable watch that stands out on its own merit. That's why, for our Q Timex, all we sought to do was make a few simple tweaks to the already-successful formula. The Q Timex was designed to combine accuracy and ability in a single functional package, which is one reason why a three o'clock day-date display has remained a signature for the model over the decades. On the Q Timex HODINKEE Limited Edition, we wanted to experiment to see how it would look without the additional calendar complication. The day-date has been completely removed on the Q Timex HODINKEE Limited Edition, resulting in a more symmetrical dial layout without a "phantom" date position in the crown. That's right, there's absolutely no indication that the watch once featured anything more than its simple three hands ticking above the crisp, clean white dial. The hour markers consist of an intermix of geometric shapes, with triangles, rectangles, and circles all rendered in a pale yellow shade of painted luminous material, matching the color of the lume-filled, black-framed handset. The Q-topped Timex branding at 12 o'clock remains the same as always a proud indication of the quartz caliber inside and we've paired it with a small black HODINKEE signature at six o'clock, balancing the dial even further. Underneath the HODINKEE stamp is the water-resistance rating meters first that indicates the Q Timex can be worn all day, everyday, regardless of what you're doing or where you're going. We've also removed the bicolor anodized coating on the steel 12-hour bezel, leaving the cool tone of bare metal behind; this is one the first contemporary Q Timex models to feature a steel, rather than aluminum, bezel. A concentric brushed surface finish has been applied to the friction-lock, bidirectional bezel, while the carved numerals and dashes are each colored in black. You can use the 12-hour bezel to track a second time-zone, or even to measure elapsed time by the half-hour. This remains a Q Timex through and through, of course, so there were a few elements we knew we had to retain. Those include the acrylic crystal up top and the classic screw-in battery hatch around back, which can be quickly unlocked with the edge of a coin. One thing we appreciate about the Q Timex HODINKEE Limited Edition is how it's very clearly the Q Timex at a glance, but the details come alive on close inspection to indicate that it's truly something special. For example, the lack of a colored coating on the bezel makes the unique barrel-shaped case profile of the Q Timex even more apparent. Just take a look at the concave sloping caseband that curves directly into your wrist from the side. Or examine the sharply beveled and brushed front and back elements that act as a hood for how the slinky, woven stainless steel bracelet integrates into the case. There are so many fluid lines in the compact 38mm — 11.5mm case of the Q Timex that we have always felt were underappreciated, and they are now placed on center stage in the Q Timex HODINKEE Limited Edition. The Q Timex is the kind of watch that is approachable for all and lighthearted to its core, with real, authentic history standing behind it. There's a clear passion for watches and watch design that is evident in the Q Timex's appearance and construction, something that became apparent to us as soon as we strapped one on the wrist for the first time.
