Marlin began as a dress watch in the Timex catalogue, and the brand has put it back into circulation as it was, without bringing it into line with present taste. That is the point of a reissue: it does not imitate something old, it is that thing.
One detail is worth settling before you decide: part of the range is hand-wound, not all of it. Anyone after that daily gesture can confirm it on the model's own page, and so can anyone who would rather do without. We have 16 references, the TW2W10000 and the TW2W58800 among them, and versions within one family differ more than the shared name would have you believe.
