Is this an actual manual wind? Because it says mechanical on the dial. I love an old school manual wind

Mechanical refers to the movement as a whole, not the winding mechanism. A mechanical watch can either be manual or automatic wound. If I had to guess, these are going to be automatics, simply because the type of watch buyer who gets a Timex likely isn't going to find manual winding charming.
