A couple of weeks ago I decided I wanted a "cheap" watch to wear during the summer. I also wanted something really simple so I turned to Timex. Anyway, this is what I got for $20.00.

I have neglected my Sub in favor of this for the past five days. By the way, the watch is running +/- 0 in that time. I am drawn to its simplicity and black/white contrast. It looks like a mini clock on my wrist. It is 35mm, but it wears much larger.

Anyway, I realize that I don't have to spend hundreds or thousands of dollars on a watch to appreciate it. I can honestly say that I may not wear my Sub again until autumn.

Pretty tough little watch also.

That's actually a beautiful dial. It reminds me of the clocks you see in every office and school. Easily readable, no clutter, numbers done in a nice typeface. And Indiglo is unbeatable for night-time viewing. I wish all my watches had it.
