MM6 Maison Margiela x Timex: Re-Engineering the Classic T80

By Sirena Kuo

The MM6 Maison Margiela x Timex collaboration breathes fresh life into Timex’s iconic T80, redefining what it means to wear time. Since its inception in 1997, MM6 Maison Margiela has stood at the intersection of high fashion and streetwear, known for remixing everyday essentials into irreverent statements.

For this partnership, the T80 transforms into two distinct pieces: a 2-in-1 wristwatch paired with an extra stainless-steel bracelet and the debut T80 ring watch. MM6 takes a playful stab at the classic, turning notions of iconography and perception on their heads. The collection isn’t just about telling time—it’s about styling it, making the T80 a fluid, adaptable accessory for all.

The minimalist touches by MM6 ensure the T80 is more than just a watch—it’s a versatile statement. The design taps into MM6’s ethos of individuality, offering spontaneity in the way it can be worn. The 2-in-1 set encourages an easy shift between looks, while the ring watch makes timekeeping an unconventional adornment, transforming an everyday object into something personal and expressive.

Available from October 24, the MM6 Maison Margiela x Timex collection drops on both brands’ e-commerce platforms, in MM6 stores, and select multibrand retailers.

The T80 Gift Set comes with a polished stainless-steel bracelet and all the expected features of a Timex classic—chronograph, daily alarm, timer, date display, and that signature INDIGLO® backlight. The mirrored display with digits from 0 to 23 and a circled ‘6’ nods subtly to MM6’s numerical trademark.

The T80 Ring Watch challenges the traditional watch concept with its polished stainless-steel expansion band worn on the finger. It’s a sleek twist on time, merging utility with MM6’s distinctive avant-garde sensibility.
