THE MM6 Maison Margiela for Timex collection introduces an inspired re-engineering of Timex’s iconic T80 digital watch via the inimitable approach of the MM6 creative studio.
Since its launch in 1997, MM6 Maison Margiela has become world-renowned for bending the rules of fashion with collections that twist quotidian wardrobe staples into idiosyncratic and irreverent streetwear-infused essentials for all genders.

For this exclusive collaboration, the retro-style T80 is reimagined as two distinct offerings: a two-in-one wristwatch, offered as a gift set with an additional standalone stainless-steel bracelet, and a first-ever T80 ring watch. An exploration of appearance and illusion that plays upon notions of iconography, convention, and perception, the MM6 Maison Margiela x TIMEX collection redefines how time itself can be worn.

Through minimal, instinctive design gestures, MM6 has reinterpreted Timex’s classic T80 as an endlessly adaptable accessory, offering a multitude of styling options. Building on MM6’s continual exploration of ‘Ways to Wear It, a design process which places great importance on the individuality of the wearer, it allows for immediacy and spontaneity in dressing.

The MM6 Maison Margiela x Timex collection is a radical reimagining of the retro-style T80 watch, blending the legacy of expertise and craftsmanship with MM6’s avant-garde approach to design.
With a 34mm polished stainless-steel case and brushed and polished stainless-steel bracelet, it offers a sleek, contemporary style that’s endlessly adaptable to complement your look. It’s equipped with a mineral lens and features a mirrored mask displaying a sequence of digits from 0 to 23 – with ‘6’ encircled as a nod to the MM6 numerical signature.

It still naturally offers all the functionality you’d expect from our T80: a chronograph, daily alarm, timer, month and date display, and the INDIGLO® backlight for night visibility. Offered as a gift set, this watch also includes a standalone brushed and polished stainless-steel bracelet, designed to be worn with the watch or alone in three ways.
