Casio Waveceptor Solar Atomic watch
If you are interested in purchasing a Solar Powered Atomic Watch, then this is the watch of your dreams. I simply love this watch!! Over the course of time, I have owned many watches, but this one by far is a keeper. I love it so much, that I am going to purchase another one as a backup. I hadn’t worn a watch for quite some time, so when I received my new watch, I accidentially bumped into the door latch as I was turning and put a scratch on the black outer coating of my new watch. I was very upset with myself, but it was my own fault. Low and behold after a few days, the scratch disappeared and is no longer visible. Apparently the outer epoxy type material helps keep the watch semi indestructable. The accuracy is amazing, and once I reached HIGH on the battery charge, any normal light exposure (indoors or out) will keep the battery charged.Swiss Army Victorinox
I spent almost 4 months cruising the offerings on Amazon, Overstock, ShopNBC and various department stores looking for exactly the right watch for me, considering elements of style/image, materials, some prestige, a strong price/value relationship, and quality and found Victorinox Swiss Army to be unsurpassed. It is ruthlessly masculine, with none of the gender equivocation and frilliness of oversized watches, shiny metals, or the implied fragility of ‘dressy’ models; I like the matte finish, lightness and strength of titanium; “Swiss Made” on the dial trumps anything that is not-regardless of price; at $139 it’s a bargain (unfortunately, a ripoff at the $325 list); the accuracy is consistant, and it’s rugged enough to take the shock from the heavy recoil of large caliber magnum firearms. Gentlemen, look no further, this is your watch. Browse for Swiss army watches on watchestopia.com
Invicta Corduba Oversized
I wanted a BIG watch and this doesn’t disappoint at some 52 MM. It’s big. I have worn it casually and with suits to work — a touch tight with some shirt cuffs under sport coats. First and foremost, I like the watch. The pale yellow face and black offer a nice contrast. I’m wondering if white would have been better — not sure how I’m going to feel about that yellow in 6 months. The lines marking the minutes also give the face a bit of a busy appearance… even on something with so much real estate across the face believe it or not. Where I was most skeptical was the operation of the watch. I am very satisfied and happy about how precise the movement appears to be, including the chrono function. Very nice weight to the watch to give a sense of solidness. With the sale Amazon was running on this watch, and a $50 gift certificate, I bought this with the mindset of it being disposable after 3 months if it was garbage. I now have reason to believe this watch will be a very solid performer for a few years and maybe longer and a unique addition to my watch collection. Still would not pay $495 list for it, but if you can get at <$150 or so, I think there may be real value here. Maybe great value. This brand is new to me.

My new Bulova Marine Star
I just got mine today after much debating between this and the round face Bulova 96R19 model. It was a tough choice, but I finally settled on the square face after going to Macy’s and comparing the two styles side by side. This square-face style looks slightly larger than the round-face style, in person. Also, the band on this watch is noticeably wider. It is a heavy, substantial-feeling timepiece. The watch is also MUCH shinier in person than in the photos here. I suggest looking at the WatchesTopia website’s pictures of this watch, as they are great and seem to be truer in color and clarity to the actual watch. I love my Bulova Marine Star, so far. I have had a Tag Heuer for years, and I initially looked at getting another one, but when I was browsing, I stumbled on this Bulova, and I just LOVED the styling. It is so beautiful, and it’s such an elegant, expensive-looking watch for the price.
