Noah & Timex launch Anchor Watch

Noah and Timex have announced the Anchor Watch, launching on August 27, 2026. The 36-mm stainless-steel timepiece features a quartz movement and 30-meter water resistance.

Design and Build

The Anchor Watch draws inspiration from the classic MK1 field model, but it trades polished surfaces for purposeful function. Its 36-mm case sits on an 18-mm lug width, giving the watch a sportier, slightly smaller footprint than previous collaborations. An acrylic crystal lens protects the dial, while the reverse side showcases a custom laser-engraved Noah logo and anchor motif.

The rugged construction is meant for active environments. The watch’s 30-meter water resistance, luminous hands and applied numerals ensure legibility in low light, and the applied hour markers add a subtle yet functional touch. The design ethos mirrors the resilience of a well-coordinated squad, emphasizing durability and practicality.

Movement and Features

At its heart, the Anchor Watch houses a reliable quartz movement that includes a dedicated sub-second dial. The movement’s precision is comparable to the meticulous stats kept by professional teams, offering clean legibility and dependable timekeeping.

Luminescent hands and markers allow the wearer to read the time at a glance, even in dim conditions. The applied numerals provide a modern aesthetic while maintaining clarity. Together, these elements create a watch that balances style with function.

Strap and Quick-Release System

The Anchor Watch is equipped with a two-piece fabric strap that mounts on quick-release spring bars. This feature enables effortless strap changes on the fly, a practical solution for users who need to switch between casual and more formal looks without the hassle of a traditional buckle.

The fabric strap’s design complements the watch’s rugged aesthetic, while the quick-release system underscores the brand’s commitment to user convenience.

Release Details

The collaborative timepiece will be available via Noah, both online and in-store, starting at 11 a.m. EDT on August 27, 2026. The launch follows the brand’s tradition of delivering functional, well-crafted accessories that resonate with everyday wearers.

The Anchor Watch represents Noah and Timex’s continued partnership, offering a reinterpretation of a classic field watch that prioritises practicality without sacrificing distinctive character. The release is covered by Hypebeast, which highlighted the watch’s key specifications and design philosophy.
