Earth Day 2025: Embrace a Greener Sense of Time with TimexUpdated a month ago
This Earth Day, we’re reminded that progress is a process, and real change comes one choice at a time. Join us in making that choice; for the planet, for the future, and for generations to come.
For over 170 years, we've been redefining what it means to be watchmakers. We're constantly in pursuit of a better tomorrow, and we're committed to bringing you timeless watches that are equal parts environmentally friendly and beautifully crafted. We're not just all talk, either. There are a number of ways we're working to achieve our goal of taking less from the planet and leaving less behind while making durable watches that can last a lifetime. Here are just a few...
We use solar-powered movements that convert any form of light into electrical energy, powering your watch for up to 4 months and eliminating the need for battery changes.
We use battery-free mechanical movements that are powered by you. This means one less battery for you to worry about changing and one less battery ending up in our landfills.
Wherever possible, we build our watches with recycled materials, such as stainless steel and plastic.
In partnership with #tide, we’re working to clean our oceans by upcycling ocean-bound plastic into watch parts.
Our leather watch straps use leather that's certified by The Leather Working Group; a global organization dedicated to minimizing the environmental impact of leather production.
- We launched Timex ReWound - the world's first circular program for watches. This program allows you to send us any used watch from any brand so that we can give it a new life with someone new or recycle its parts into new products.
Through these efforts, we've been able to...
- Remove over 800,000 plastic bottles from ocean and recycle them into watch parts
- Save an average of 8,300 garbage cans of waste
- Save 3.5 million gallons of drinking water in one year
- Save enough electricity to power 120+ homes for one year
And while we’re still on the journey toward our goal of having 50% of our watches sustainably sourced by 2026, we’re proud of how far we’ve come and excited about what’s ahead. Every Timex is a reflection of our belief that great design and environmental responsibility should go hand in hand. This Earth Day, we’re reminded that progress is a process, and real change comes one choice at a time. Join us in making that choice; for the planet, for the future, and for generations to come.
