Watches aren't really for telling time anymore, they're for sex appeal. One of the first things a lot of ladies (and some men) look at is your watch. You don't have to spend an @$$ load to get a watch that looks expensive. I used to have a Lorus from Target that looked fancy, but only cost me $40.

Unhappy

GPS time gentlemen...keeping it professional!

No money for a watch, saving for an airline career. Sell my SUUNTO on EbAY for $150, invest the money into a low interest savings account to minimize risk, withdrawl the account during the first month of employment and enjoy a chicken wrap and a large class of tap water with out ice! Ice is extra in this story...work with me.

Dame it, I hate reality!! Gotta run to work some overtime....

For those righties out there, how do you turn the bezel with that knob at your 8 o'clock? Isn't that a bit of a pain?

I'm thinking about buying a Swiss Army Victorinox Summit XLT, around $300. http://www.swissarmy.com/Timepieces/...product=24005&
