What’s the definition of a cheap watch?

I love cheap Casios. Great watch for work. I can't seem to bring myself to keep more than one beater though. I usually wear for a few months then give them away. IMG_20190426_161352.jpg

G-Shock - I love the look of those full metal squares in the GMW B5000 series
Seiko - You gotta love their dive watches at all the various price points from the SKXs, Sea Urchins through to the Sumos and 62MAS re-editions. All in-house movements too!

Cheap relative to Rolex? Tudor, Grand Seiko and Nomos.

Sure, I have a Rolex too, kidding.

Apple watch, maybe not that cheap considering it will be obsolete in a couple of years.

I also have a Swiss Army watch.

Define “cheap”?

Lowest priced watch in my stash cost me about USD60.

I love my Seiko SNKK52 and all gold limited edition Casio G-Shock. I wear mainly my all gold Seiko to work (where I dont like to be flashy and pretentious). It's perfect because most people get it mistaken for a Rolex anyway

I was debating whether I should get the blue one or the black/white one. I picked the latter and I’m happy I made a choice. It’s pretty great actually. Keeps decent time and takes a beating. It’s way more comfortable than my own G-Shock lol.

Nice! Half of my watches are Casio (and one G-Shock) and others are cheapo no-name Walmart brands, and a Timex and a Armitron. I favored my Casio MRW-200H and Timex Easy Reader over them all though.

This thread has brought back some memories. Great to see the names & avatars of members we haven't heard from for many years.
