Mitt arv. Eller del av det. Pappas gamla Timex armbandsur från runt 70. Det är en ovanlig modell. Det är en elektromekanisk klocka som fanns i skarven mellan mekaniska ur och kvartsklockor. Den är tyvärr trasig, så jag är på jakt efter ett donationsurverk av modell 876. Så har någon sådan fungerande liggande så köper jag det gärna. :-) #timex #clockwork

After ten years of smartwatches, tech fatigue pushed me toward a classic analog one. A Braun BN0301 was meant to be the whole plan — then I fell down the rabbit hole of amateur watch collecting. (599 words)

🐧 Hommage à la Timex Data Link de 1994
une montre connectée avant l'heure qui respectait (presque) votre vie privée : aucun cloud, aucun tracking GPS, pas de publicité ciblée. Juste un capteur optique qui lisait les pulsations lumineuses d'un écran sous Windows 3.1.
Une prouesse d'ingénierie low-tech avant l'heure, qui fonctionnait même à bord de la station spatiale Mir.
L'interopérabilité à la vitesse de la lumière ! 💡⌚Connaissais-tu ?

I went ahead and picked up the Timex Expedition Field Post Titanium Automatic, and I am happy as can be! It's my first mechanical wristwatch, and I think I picked a great one. It’s light, comfortable, feels like a tank, and seems to be keeping pretty accurate time for the 9 hours that I’ve had it. It has a Miyota 8215 movement with custom, shock absorbent mounting and a screw down crown for better water resistance. It’s almost the exact same size as the Casio AE-1000W I’ve used as my EDC, and only a little bit heavier.

"In the Summertime" is the debut single by British #rock band #MungoJerry, released in 1970. It reached number one in charts around the world, including seven weeks on the #UKSinglesChart, two weeks at number one on the #CanadianCharts, and number three on the #Billboard Hot 100 singles chart in the US. Written and composed by the band's lead singer, #RayDorset, while working in a lab for #Timex, the lyrics of the song celebrate the carefree days of summer.

These system uses 3 inch floppy disks, with a capacity of a whooping 160 KB per side. The “per side" part is important because unlike most floppy disk systems, the user had to remove the disk and flip it over, since the drive had only one head. So each side acted as an independent storage device. The drives this thing has are the Hitachi ones at the bottom of this page: https://www.retrotechnology.com/herbs_stuff/3inch_floppy.html #zxspectrum #Timex #RetroComputing

Took the entire day due to a lot of silly problems, but I can now transfer programs and files from the Timex FDD 3000 to the Mac (directly generating a TAP file) through the serial port! 😁 This will allow me to save some of the first programs I ever written, and some old Masterfiles databases my parents used.
The FDD 3000 serial ports waited 40 years to be finally used! Some floppy disks have errors but it's amazing many of them are still mostly readable. #zxspectrum #Timex #RetroComputing

Super obscure request, but does anyone know the header format of a file transferred via serial port from a Timex FDD 3000 running TOS? #zxspectrum #sinclair #timex #timex_sinclair #retrocomputing

The restoration of the Timex FDD 3000 is officially done! 😁
I might replace the power supply in the future by something that runs cooler, but I’m super happy with this!
I played countless hours on this thing when I was a kid and the first software I ever wrote is still mostly readable in many of these floppies. I never expected to see this thing working ever again, especially in full, perfect working order!
A big 🙏 to @luisfcorreia for his help bringing this back to life! #ZXSpectrum #Timex

Finally!!!! FDD 3000 on one end, connected to the speccy. RPI 5 on the other. Connected by a 40-year long cable. #Timex #TimexFDD3000 #Sinclair #ZXSpectrum #retrocomputing

I’ve been working on recovering this for months! With the absolutely vital help and patience of @luisfcorreia, here’s something I thought I would not see ever again. A Timex FDD 3000 (developed and built in Portugal!) loading a game to my old speccy! This is ~40 years old hardware just working (after a bit of maintenance). Aside from recapping, the only chip that had to be replaced was the Speccy Z80 that developed a bad M1 line. #zxspectrum #timex #retrocomputing #sinclair

All right, both PAL mysteriously marked 16 + helper flip-flop passed without issues (after a lot of issues getting the software right)!
Now I need to test the PALs that pair with these, marked with a mysterious 40. At least those are in sockets, so they're much easier to test, no flip-fop logic involved.

I've been spending a bit of time with my #Timex/#Sinclair HW, specifically trying to bring my Timex FDD 3000 back to life. This is a dual floppy drive that can be used as an autonomous CP/M computer (connects directly to a monitor), or as a floppy drive (technically, a file server) to the ZX Spectrum, allowing it to load and save games and programs directly from/to floppy disks. Naturally I forgot to take a photo before opening, but here’s what it looks like (photo from Load ZX Museum):

Trialing it with an old #Timex Weekender I’ve had for years.
