Timex has recently released a watch collection to celebrate the final chapter of the Stranger Things series. With the second half of Stanger Things releasing July 1st, Timex used this opportunity to collaborate with the Netflix exclusive series on a set of bold designs.
These special edition timepieces feature a retro look meant to embody the 80s era of the show. Watches in the collection include the 'Timex Camper,' 'Timex T80,' and the 'Timex Atlantis.' The Atlantis was worn by Lucas Sinclair in season four and features a customizable alarm, light-up watch dial, and resin straps.
When each watch in this collection switches to 3:00 pm, a backward icon of the number three appears. These impressive timepieces are available for purchase on the official Timex website for only $119.
