Hi, Guys:

This is a good looking watch for the price, I think.

Enjoy

This is an excellent price for the watch in blue.

Though I don't want another watch that uses batteries...changing them gets expensive.

Opening a watch you use for diving isn't smart, it breaks the seal. After you change the batter you should pressure test it, which WalMart doesn't do.

Also buying battery powered items is not environmentally friendly, and should be shunned. You can't recharge a standard watch battery...

Good deal.. I am still waiting for the Seiko Monster deal to come back. I think it was $125-ish not too long ago. I can't believe I slept on that one.

Case diameter: 42 millimeters
Case Thickness: 10 millimeters

Yakes....that's big and heavy.

Same here, but the Amazon package is a lot nicer than Overstock's. Its a good watch, but as others have noticed, its not an automatic movement.

Shows 120 now

I have one of these, but for everyday use I prefer my solar-powered Pulsar.

Good price though, I think I paid about $15 more for mine.

I wouldn't bring my patek philippe to Wal-Mart or Sears, but for a seiko or casio they are definitely capable of changing a battery. It's not rocket science, you take the back off, pop out the old battery, and pop a new one in. Taking a cheap watch to a fancy jeweler is like putting premium gas in your kia (which you probably also do).

LMAO...........Good luck with the Wallyworld people playing with your watch, high risk of
them effing it up. I only bring my watches to a real jeweler, and not the mall ones either,
and I only pay $10 for someone with all the right tools, no distractions, who does the whole process
right, headlamp, magnifier, a pro. They even know which type of batteries are more prone to leakage failure etc.

Absolutely amazes me the level of cheapness here for certain things.

Picked up one. Watch looks great, but noticed that the bottom small dial is slightly off so the default elapsed time on the chronograph is -1 minute (and therefore goes to "0 minute" after 1 minute of stopwatch). Anyone else experience this?
