So I'm starting to get into watches more and more. I may have found a hobby that the norm is priced higher than I'm ever willing to go (don't see me buying a $1k watch anytime soon and to be honest, I have a hard time even spending $200 at the moment). I'm catching myself learning about mechanical vs. quartz, and automatics, and chronographs, and tachymeters, and slide-rule bezels, and classic designs, etc.
I had this cheapie for a while (and really like it for hiking/camping):
http://www.amazon.com/Timex-T499449...qid=1403651026&sr=8-2&keywords=timex+uplander
I'll admit that I really like Timex. I read that Timex is the only US-based company to survive the various buyouts that went on with the other US-based brands back in the day. I've got a weekender that I've had for a while, but I decided to step it up a notch and ordered this one (should be here tomorrow):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004IQE5Y4/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Anywho - share your watches; your opinions on brands/models/years/etc.; and post lots of pics of watch-goodies (pocket or wrist).
Let's see 'em!
