NEW DELHI, July 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Timex®, one of the top selling watch global brand leader in watchmaking for over 165 years is thrilled to announce today the launch of its Waterbury Ocean collection, an upcycled watch made of ocean-bound plastic to tackle pollution. The innovative collection honors the Timex brand's rich legacy of design and legendary durability and takes a purposeful step toward a more sustainable future for all with the usage of Swiss-made #tide® ocean material, furthering the brand's commitment to tackling important issues such as pollution in the ocean ecosystem.

Timepieces from this collection, through #tide, commit to reducing the consumption of fossil fuels, creating employment for local communities, specifically fishermen, as well as improving the underwater habitat through its cleanup efforts.
