editWhich "Timex" is this; the U.S. watchmaker? When was the plant established; what did it produce? How many workers did it employ; how many were sacked? 2fort5r (talk) 18:30, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Planned changes 2022
edit- Rename article to specify 1993 Dundee Timex Strike. This is important because there was a 1983 strike at the same plant and there are other Timex factories all over the world.
- Better background on Timex in the city.
- Specific background on the 1983 strike.
- Expansion of details on the strike including a better timeline of what happened and the end of the strike.

- Go for it, MsJoat; my arse still aches from the Timex strike. SN54129 21:19, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
- @MsJoat I'm in the process of expanding a timeline of events covering the start, progression and conclusion of the dispute. I will also add additional details to the background and legacy sections where appropriate. AKFrydo (talk) 22:42, 5 February 2023 (UTC)
