Time travel, NYC-style. This handcrafted Subway Token Watch features a genuine 1970s-era 7/8" Y-cut New York Transit Token—once jingling in pockets across the five boroughs.

The dial? Made from a vintage “revenue bag” used to haul tokens through the city’s underground maze. It’s history on your wrist, with every tick echoing the rhythm of the subway.

For more iconic keepsakes and urban lore, visit the Museum of the City of New York—where every artifact tells a story, and every token has a tale.
