Is it just me or some of the citizens and seiko's look suspiciously like breitling's?
I see that no one has mentioned Invicta yet. As for a reasonably priced tough as nails watch you could do a lot worse. I have been wearing a stainless Invicta Python chronograph for 4 or 5 years daily while working with tools and mechanical things and other than replacing the battery and a pin in the band it has really stood up to the abuse. Not too bad for a 100 dollar watch that also looks good. I am amazed at the quality of the sapphire crystal. It does not have a scratch or mark on it. I decided I will wear it until it breaks, but I did get another one with a blue face and a slightly larger case. I keep my Tags in the gun safe and only wear them occasionally. Here is a little gun/watch porn.

I can't get my pics to load up...........but this is my kinda thread! I have the mandatory DateJust in stainless and rose gold, Four Seamaters with the lastest being picked up a couple weeks ago for my upcoming 50th......I have a Ball Conductor, a Longines Master collection in 18Kt rose gold (stunning watch) and half dozen Swiss Army......it's taken be over 20 years to collect these.....but would not consider selling any unless I just go stone broke.....
Watches, knives and long guns......can't go wrong
Nice Motor. It's one of the best bang for the buck mechanicals made. Hands down. Shineola is going to have a hard time in today's market. Lots of people still remember, "You don't know **** from Shineola" and that may be a problem. They've branded themselves horribly over the last few months too. The 24 hour watch posted is one of my favorite. I plan on getting a true 24hr movement one day. Those are affordable too since they are Russian made.
