Restoration Thoughts / Notes:
- Kelton: Timex's French Connection: In 1955, Timex collaborated with French watchmaker Stéphane Boullier to introduce Kelton, aiming to penetrate the European market with affordable, reliable timepieces. Kelton watches were assembled in Besançon, France, using parts manufactured in Timex's Scottish factories.
