Just picked up my first "timepiece."

[Heafcliffe]

woooooo, i wasn't even thinking about coping another watch for a minute...but damn. what that diameters size like? you keeping the stainless steel?

Diameter's said to be between 41 and 42mm. That sweet spot in size! I plan to change the band sometime in the future to either of these (minus the watch):

I'm in the process of learning how to correctly change bands, but, in the meantime, I will take my time with the stainless.

Big fan bc they are affordable, tried and try, and come in many models.

Here are some models to familiarize yourself with:
Black Monster
Orange Monster
Pepsi Red Blue
The Spork
SKX007
Sumo
Darth Vader Helmet

Can't go wrong.

Cliffe I found the Pepsi Red Blue for $150. Is that a good price and I wanted the Rolex one but saw the price

$150 isn't bad. There are many Pepsi models but I found this option though.

A $20 savings is a $20 savings!

Respect. Glad you ain't us with philandering stories of fictitious blubber. We'll be waiting, champ.

The price for the watch got out of my target range. When I have enough disposable income to drop $250 on a watch without thinking twice, I'll cop it... but for now, there are other aspects of my wardrobe to upgrade.

Thinking about getting a really nice one now and giving it to my son when he graduates from HS or College.

Don't know if you are aware but go to watchuseek.com, sign up, and view the 'Sales' section. Watches, in some cases, are used but come considerably lower than the MSRP. That Sea-gull I posted earlier was from there and was more than half its normal price.

EDIT: Trustworthy sellers, but watch out for scammers. Research, my brotha.

 

[just my thoughts]

What do yall feel about fossil?

What do yall feel about fossil?

From the styling, cheap materials and less than quality standards, I would pass.

But , if we talking about an everyday beater watch, then I think they are more than sufficient.

My 2 coppers though....

i MAY get a nice watch this summer for my birthday. i despise MK watches but i saw a fukking fire ass watch for $250.

havent really looked at watches but i always said when i get a better job and more money i'd like a gucci and rolex watch. im not a ring or chain person.

What's a good brand of watch for a decent price? Probably something in the 200-300 hundred range. Not trying to spend to much on a watch but i'm trying to find something decent for the summertime.

Good decent, "pound for pound" watches (my opinion):

Seiko
Citizen
Tissot
Sector

These are a few.
