I'd like too know…

Ok. I though this would be an interesting idea. I'd like to know what is your least expensive watch in your collection? I know many of you TFRers have many thousands of dollars invested, so I was wondering if you still had an interest in the less expensive brands? I will start, my cheapo and currently the only watch in my collection (until my 116660 arrives) is a G-Shock 5302. Even if it's a Rolex i'd still love to know!
( I know I spelled too wrong, typo and I can't edit the topic!)

I figured this would either be a huge hit or embarrassing failure, it's not looking good so far.. I noticed a couple of Invicta mentions, I know you guys have to have a bunch of beaters less then a grand laying around, don't be shy! Even if it's more it doesn't matter. Only criteria is it has to be the cheapest watch in your collection.

It may be the title of the thread that needs to be altered... I'd like to know tells nothing of what the thread is about and invites passing over. Asking your question in the title is much more inviting.

IMHO. :- )

Thanks for the advice, in the future I will try and make my topics a bit more inviting.

My G shock is what I wear when I got out on the Jet Ski. I wear a Luminox as a beater when I do odd things or want to be understated. I also wear a Hamilton when I want a nice but understated piece. I do have even more lesser expensive time pieces but I no longer wear them. I have every watch I have ever owned since I was 18.
Pulsar, Timex, Casio, Swatch and Seiko to name a few.

I snagged a decent but large "homage" to see if I would like the real deal for a few hundred but the only pic I have for the moment has stuff not allowed. It will be gifted away soon anyway. I have a Seiko MileMarker that I love retail$650.uploadfromtaptalk1411435836490.jpg

Then the marathon GSAR. It's around a grand with bracelet but an awesome "beater" watch!uploadfromtaptalk1411435983452.jpg

This is my cheapest as well as my oldest watch. Bought it for 200 bucks. I still wear it occasionally.

G-Shock is the "cheapest" in rotation. I really like the watch!
