# Timex 364 T Cell Moonphase Review by A.I. WatchMetrics

## Watch Summary
The Timex 364 T Cell Moonphase is a vintage-inspired rectangular digital quartz tool watch blending retro 1980s aesthetics with practical adventure features like a graphical moonphase indicator and tide tracker, ideal for budget-conscious outdoor enthusiasts who value multifunctional utility over luxury; it runs on a reliable T-Cell lithium battery offering up to 3 years of power reserve.

## Overall Watch Rating: 5.4/10.0

**Functions Metric (8.7/10.0)** - Packed with timekeeping, alarm, hourly chime, EL backlight, moonphase graphics, and tide data, it outperforms basic quartz analogs like the Casio F91W in everyday utility.
**Movement Metric (7.8/10.0)** - The quartz module delivers quartz-typical accuracy and longevity superior to entry-level mechanicals like the Seiko 7S26.
**Versatility Metric (7.1/10.0)** - Excels across casual, sports, adventure, and tool scenarios much like a modern G-Shock but in a slimmer vintage package.
**Complications Metric (6.4/10.0)** - Digital moonphase and tide functions provide solid utility comparable to mid-tier solar Casios without mechanical complexity.
**History & Innovation Metric (6.2/10.0)** - Builds on Timex's pioneering digital watch legacy from the 1970s, akin to the original Ironman but with added celestial tracking.
**Dials & Design Metric (5.6/10.0)** - Retro LCD pixel art for moon and tides offers quirky charm on par with vintage Casio databank displays.
**Brand Metric (3.0/10.0)** - Timex delivers reliable entry-level performance consistent with affordable workhorses like their Weekender line.
**Material Metric (2.3/10.0)** - Lightweight resin construction with mineral crystal holds up like basic Casio resins but lacks the durability of steel divers.
**Rarity Metric (1.7/10.0)** - Common on the vintage market similar to abundant 1980s quartz digitals, with little scarcity appeal.

## Total Performance Score (TPS): 4.1

## WM Collector Grade: C

## Performance Insights: Excels in functions, movement, and versatility for multi-use digital utility while lagging in materials and rarity; strong value punching above its $75 secondary market price versus implied $185.

## TPS Interpretation: Budget Performer: Offers impressive multifunction digital features and reliability well beyond expectations for its entry-level price point.
