    All this talk of giving someone badges for money is making me start to think "badge" is a euphemism for handies... or maybe oral.

    I put a bid in on

    Nothing particularly special, but hard to pass up for as low as it is right now. Also that Fossil is nice looking.

    Until you willfully (meaning: buying your own Chinese watch) join the mafia, you will never know.
  • ketoketo Occupied. Or is it preoccupied? Icrontian
    My son has owned that Fossil but in a white face/blued hands/bracelet for well over a year now, and he still just adores it. Looks great in black on black too!

    I'm not sure why the picture I posted lists it as ME1104, the actual model is ME3018

    That's one way to advertize your watch as waterproof.

    I don't know if I didn't notice that one earlier or what, but that is a sexy watch.
  • GnomeWizarddGnomeWizardd Member 4 Life Akron, PA Icrontian
    it looks alot like the sea gull I want but cant afford right now. So i know this Jaragar is gonna be about 25 bucks but hey its sexy and will hold me over
  • GnomeWizarddGnomeWizardd Member 4 Life Akron, PA Icrontian
    Ah Im torn, 25 for the jaragar or 55 for a sieko 5. Im thinking the seiko

    Y'all got me looking at Jaragars, and now I'm considering the PMW048.

    My only reservation is the size. I'm worried that, on my tiny wrist (it's about 60mm across) it's going to look absolutely monstrous. Thoughts?
  • GnomeWizarddGnomeWizardd Member 4 Life Akron, PA Icrontian
    60 is freaking HUGE

    My wrist is about 60mm across. The watch is 42mm dia. I was not clear, sorry.
  • ThraxThrax 🐌 Austin, TX Icrontian
    The watch is 42mm. That's only 10% larger than the "classic" male watch diameter of 38mm.

    60mm across is not a tiny wrist.
  • midgamidga "There's so much hot dog in Rome" ~digi (> ^.(> O_o)> Icrontian
    Right, but since it's square and not round, at the diagonal it's almost 60mm. Just no clue what that'll look like.

    ...I'ma make a mockup and see what it looks like. Will report back shortly.

    Big, but still very proportional to your wrist size. Nothing weird about that picture.

    How come no blood shows where you stapled it to your wrist? You need to hydrate more often maybe?

    That size is fine for you.

    Because I have no blood.

    More watches on woot. Not sure if this is a good manufacturer or not, but I thought I'd pass them along anyway

    How about these Red Line watches that Woot also has on sale?
