Timex Reclaimed Ocean Plastic Watch
At least 14 million tons of plastic end up in the ocean every year. Timex's solution is the Reclaimed Ocean Plastic Watch. Its lightweight 40 mm case is made from upcycled, ocean-bound plastic collected from the coastlines by fishermen. The waste is then washed, shredded, and shipped to Switzerland on carbon-neutral transportation, where it's repurposed. The material gives the piece a speckled texture and is complemented by a matte black dial with contrasting white handers and numerals. An indiglo backlight enhances readability, and a fabric strap holds the watch in place.
