Wristwatch buying guide
The wristwatch was invented in the 1600’s when a French mathematician used a piece of string to tie a watch to his wrist.
Timekeeping has come a long way since then. These days, watches are like mini-computers that can forecast the weather, help you find your way in the woods or even get you to class on time.
For professional adventure racer Travis Macy, 23, his watch helps with navigation and keeps his team on track during grueling multi-day races.
“If we’re doing a trekking section and we’re falling asleep on our feet, we’ll stop and sleep for half an hour,” says Macy, a former Cub Scout. “And then the whole race is hanging on my watch to wake us up!”
Dealing with that kind of pressure and the race on the line, Macy knows watches. He can teach you a lot about how to pick the best one for your time-keeping needs.
FEATURES
“Before you go to buy a watch, think about the features you’re looking for,” Macy says.
If hiking and camping is your thing, consider a watch with a compass and perhaps an altimeter and barometer. If you’re into jogging, find a heart-rate-monitor watch. Remember: Just because a watch is packed with features and functions doesn’t mean it’ll be easy to use. Try it before you buy to make sure it’s user-friendly.
ANALOG VS. DIGITAL
Most modern watches use tiny quartz minerals to keep the time. When electrified, the quartz crystal vibrates a reliable 32,768 times per second; those vibrations are translated to seconds, minutes and hours. Analog watches have a standard clock-like face with two or three (or more) hands that point at numbers, which is more classic yet can be tougher to read than digital watches. Digitals continuously highlight the exact time in numerals. Some watches have dual faces with both analog and digital readouts.
DURABILITY
If you spend much time outdoors, durability is a key factor in a watch. “Make sure it’s rugged,” Macy says. “If it has a compass swivel on top, try turning that to see if that feels like it’ll hold up. Play with the buttons. Are they easy to push? Take a look at the band and the buckle to make sure they’re flexible and will hold up to the elements.”
SIZE
You want the face of the watch and the numbers to be big enough so you can see them while you’re riding a bike or running. But in general, the bigger the watch the heavier and bulkier it will be. Try to find a size that’s comfortable.
“If you’ll have only one watch, think about whether you’ll want to wear a big watch to school,” he says. “I wear the same big watch for everything, but I’ve gotten used to it. Some guys will feel more comfortable with something smaller.”
THE WATCHBAND
The way your watch is strapped to your wrist is important. If you’re outdoors a lot, choose a polyurethane band. These bands are waterproof, won’t hold odors and are very durable, but they can also be sticky in hot climates. Another good choice is a canvas and Velcro band, which is more breathable.
“Velcro bands keep your watch snug against your wrist and you can wash it when it’s dirty,” Macy says.
Leather bands don’t perform well in wet environments, but they look cool. Meanwhile, metal bands can sometimes pinch your skin, though they are usually super durable.
WHERE TO SHOP
There’s nothing more helpful than going to a store and trying a watch on to see how it feels on your wrist. Of course, you’ll probably pay more at a store versus buying it on the Internet.
“Take a look online and see if you can find a better price,” Macy says. “There are search engines where you can type in the product name and a whole list of prices will come up so you can find out what’s a good price.”
If you buy online, make sure the store is reputable and beware of counterfeit or fake watches.
Timex Expedition Digital/Analog watch face, AWESOME!!
Good watch: Timex atlantis
You should get a Timex Expedition, there amazing and easy to use.
If you go to bass pro they have a lot of knives
Umm, knife pro, this article is about watches. There is another one for knives.
Pebble steel or samsung gear live is the way to go!!
Timex Ironman watches are amazing. Waterproof to 300+ feet, almost indestructible ( I did a series of tourture tests to my old one), and pretty cheap. Can be had for $35 at Wally world.
my Casio illuminator: aw 80 watch is awesome, hold telephone numbers and has world time And is digital / analog much better than any G (Garbage Shock) although the timex adventurer is also very good
I got the timex 1440 sport and I love it. It’s easy to use, has many great features and is water resistant to 164 feet. I can take it pretty much anywhere too. It’s a really great watch!
if you want a really good watch get the timex reefgear
A-Men brother!
wish this article followed up with where to buy watches for boys that was reputable. Or gave you a few ideas
Amazon usually gives the best prices
What are you talking about? amazon is very reputable.
I think he wants customer service; try a watch store.They have knowledgeable people that can answer your questions. if not them, I found Cabelas the next best.
I have been wearing the Suunto Core for about three years. THis is the same watch that the US Army issued to Special Forces personnel. It has a lot of great features, known to go through batteries, but I love the weather alert feature once you get the barometric settings straight and correct…
If you can spend $400 on a watch and want it to last, then try the Core.
Sounds like a great watch but way to expensive.
I mean yeah, any watch that is good enough for Spec Ops is more that good enough for us but I would rather stick to my more affordable G-Shock. Sounds like an awesome watch though!
Looked the watch up, very nice. Now that’s a combat watch!
I’ve had my G Shock for 10 years and deployed to Iraq with it and no problems. Changed the battery two times and go swimming and diving, jogging, and biking with it all the time. I wear it to work as my normal watch daily. I can’t think of a longer lasting one.
THANK YOU!!
my Timex Ironman Triathalon watch survives up to 100 m, I reccomend it. its durable, rubber, can stand high amounts of heat,(dont throw it in a fire place though) etc. if your looking for a small reliable watch, get this one
THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I’ve been using those for 4+ years now and they are top of the line for the price of $35.
Sounds great, I’ll give it a try. Has to be better than “G” (Garbage) Shock.
Nice article. I got a Timex 1440 sports ($17) and it’s done just as well as my friend’s G-Shock. I swim and dive with it multiple times a week, and never take it off. This just shows your watch doesn’t have to be an expensive, branded watch to be good.
My “G” (Garbage) Shock broke in 5′ of water. Not worth it.
If you are going to buy a watch, you might as well save to get a high end military G- Shock. G-Shocks are usually the toughest watch you can buy. Most police officers, firefighters, medical personnel, and people in the military use G-Shock. If yours drowned in under 100 meters of water, the watch was either defective, or fake.
Timex “Expedition” It’s the best!
I have dove to 30 feet with mine and never had any problems. I think you just got a defective watch. But that is why CASIO has this thing called a warranty. just return your watch or get a new one. and obviously your not telling the truth about the servicemen. G-SHOCK is way to popular among them for none of the people you listed to not have one. just go on amazon and read some of the reviews by US Marines. then just try to tell me your not impressed.
I own a calculator watch.
Armitron is the best to me. Mine is 330ft waterproof so is big bros (his is a differant style).
Armitron is a good watch. but my G-Shock can go down to 660ft!
Me too my gshock can to 660 ft
I had a “G-Shock.” It drowned in 10″ of water. I use a Timex Expedition now; “Adventurer. It’s never showed that wet look lots of watches do once worn in the lake, even when I’m snorkeling.
well you mustive got a cheap nock off or a factory defect. G-Shock is better built than timex and thats all there is to it! All the firefighters, policemen, and Air Force guys i know use G-Shock.
Oh and I’ve seen Border Security guards use them too.
No cheap knock-off just a bad watch. I’ll stick with the one that’s proved itself to me. I too know several Policemen, firefighters, airmen (We have an airbase in town) construction workers, cooks, scouts, intellectuals … and none of them wear a G-Shock, must be they know they aren’t what you say they are.
My “G” (Garbage) Shock broke in 5′ of water. Not worth it.
don’t say the same things again!
i have the awgm100-a and dw9052 and they are great
I prefer my Skyhawk ATF from Citizen. It is metal has a calendar, alarm, chronograph, timer, and can change it’s timezone. It is also waterproof
i use My Timex Expedition indiglo (which is water resistant) more than my lego R2-D2 watch
Ripcurl Tide watches are the best and they are waterproof
had a Quintel 4 long time still works worn it everwhere xept in water
What time is it? If you can answer the question your watch works fine.
ummm…no not exactly. if your watch is an hour or even five minutes off… it is technically not the real time. My point is you could answer that question and it could be totally wrong. For instance, say some one asks you “what time is it?” and you answer by saying, “oh is 5:30… in Russia” then your watch does not work properly. Just because you can answer someone who asks “what time is it?” doesn’t mean your watch is working right.
Yes it does. :^)
Uh, yes it does
Have had the timex 1440 since last Christmas, so far so good.
bowflex rs-i
never heard of it…
I got a new Expedition last month , man it’s cool. It has an address / phone memory in it. I had been using my dad’s older Timex the past year after wrecking mine while playing waterpolo at camp last summer. Thanks for the suggestion Sly Fox.
Got my new G-Shock about a month ago. So far so good.
I got a new Expedition today, man it’s cool. It has a address / phone memory in it. I had been using my dad’s older Timex the past year after wrecking mine while swimming at camp last summer. Thanks for the suggestion Sly Fox.
I got a timex expedition Christmas 2010 and it’s still working awesome. Everyone at school is always asking me the time and every time I look at my timex, its still working fine.
For someone who isnt hard on their watches timeX works great! I know lots of guys that have had Timexs for years and they still work great… But that because they are not hard on their equipment. G-shock is a watch built for tough people that are tough on their watches.
I am the real Knife Xpert! Look at my previous comments and you will see I have always loved G-shock!
I NEED G-SHOCK
Right on man!!
Timex all the way … now.
I did not say that! someone copied my name and posted that comment. uncool dude! And I will always LOVE G-SHOCK!
I did not say that! someone copied my name and posted that comment. uncool dude! And I will always LOVE TIMEX EXPEDITION!
Cut it out RIGHT…NOW!
I agree with Knife Xpert 157 Timex all the way!!!
SO IT WAS YOU!
Y’all keep saying G-Shock, but which one? There’s like a gazillion.
Either a DW9052-1V Classic G-Shock watch (only $50 on Amazon) or a GW500A-1V Solar atomic G-Shock. It is about $60 to $70 on Amazon (The regular price is $120)
The timex Expedition is a great watch. I have had it for year now and it is still runing strong. I got it at target for $30. The band is geting to stink but fix that by rubin baking soda on it. It has indiglo, stopwatch, three alarms, timer, and of coarse a clock.
G-Shocks are teerible go with expedition g-shocks are a scam and they rip you off
Have you even tried a G-Shock? my dad had it for 8 years while he was in the Marines and he gave it to me 5 years ago. a total of 13 years that this G-shock has been in my family. G-shock is a tough watch for tough people. Timex is good if you want an every day watch. but if you want somthing that can withstand what my dad does, G-shock is the best choice.
G-Shock did not rip me off. I was just to hard on it and I was being stupid. have you even had a G-Shock before??? I will always trust Casio
My G-Shock broke today:( I hit it REALLY hard on a piece of steel and i guess I hit it in just the right place because the inside screen broke. it still works I just cant read the screen. I think the Analog watches are a little more tougher then the digital (mine was digital) But I am going to get another because it was such a nice watch and the are still SUPER tough I guess I just did to much to mine.
Get a walmart watch and pay 10 bucks!!!!!!!!!!!
One problem: a Walmart watch that says “Water Proof to 136 meters” can’t stand up to half a year of hand washing and showers.
THANK YOU HOTROD!!!
$11 watch at wal-mart. Works Great, waterproof to 250ish feet
Whatever dude! as soon as you pass 5 feet of water the thing is going to leak! $15 wal-mart watches are not worth it. get a watch that is going to last!
I’ve had it for a few years, and on every camp out, been swimming with it, this watch holds up
I got a $20 watch at kmart…………..3 years ago and it has lasted forever
Take a peek at “Expedition” series; inexspencive, tough, water proof and has a nice band. I take mine swimming and it hasn’t failed me yet in 5 years. The alarm is a bonus too. I have the programable version that stores phone numbers in it. Great as a back up.
My mom has to buy a new Expedition watch every several months because they break so much!
Casio G-shock is unarguably the best watch ever.
My mom has to buy a new Casio G-shock watch every several months because it breaks so much.
Ok please dont copy my comment and please tell the truth. if your mom really broke a G shock every month she would have to be a millionar! they cost at least $100 dollars a watch. I got mine on sale for $60. plus go to the g shock website and look at the destruction tests they do. I dont think your mom could break a g shock.
(chuckling) Yeah whatever you say kid. look Ive had my G-shock for 20 years and I had it while in Iraq and Afghanistan. I doubt you mom could break a G-shock if I couldn’t.
I do not like G-shock.
Why? are they to manly for you! if you don’t like G-Shocks because of their size then get a Baby G its a smaller version of the bigger ones. And if you don’t like them for their hefty price look online at amazon or ebay. they may be expensive but its worth it, it will never break!
Dudes… G-shock cannot be beat! have had mine for 5 years now! an that was after my dad used it for 15 years!
armitron is a great company to buy a high quality watch. i take mine camping and its lasted me 3 years.
I think the best kind of watch is an old style, automatic Three-hand watch. I wear a Citizens Eco-drive Divers with rubberized band. I has a rotating bezel and date window. It is solar powered and waterproof to 300 meters. Good thing is that in a pinch, I can use my watch as a compasss. See your BSA Handbook for instructions on how to use a watch to determine direction. You can’t do that with a digital watch.
Sorry you just can’t beat a G-Shock! although your watch sounds like a good quality one but I would still take a Casio GW500A-1V Atomic Solar watch over this one. oh one more question is your watch shock proof?
@ irock:). yes there are good inexpensive watches but they are probably not as good as a G-shock. here is a watch by Casio that is cheap but good. Casio Men’s W800H-1AV Classic Digital Sport Watch. retail is $20 but I found it on amazon.com for $15. I do not own it but I have had 2 other Casio watches and they where tough as nails! as I type this I am wearing a Casio GW500A-1V Atomic Solar watch. Hope this and my comment in the knifes section helps! Good luck watch hunting!
thanks
no prob
most waches i find thatare good are a lot of $ where could i find a good wach that is cheap?
Casio Men’s W800H-1AV Classic Digital Sports Watch. $15 on Amazon.com glad to help!
There are lots of inexpensive watch options. Check out Amazon.com and search for “Casio sports watches.” I found a few that meet your needs including the Casio Men’s W800H-1AV Classic Digital Sports Watch (retail $20; casio.com). It’s water resistant to 100 meters and has a 10-year battery life
I also recommended the Casio Men’s WS300-7BV Ana-Digi Illuminator Sport Watch. I had one for almost two years before I switched to a G-Shock. The band on it got ripped off while I was working. I still have it siting on my desk and it is still working after 3 or 4 years! It is $28.48 on Amazon.com. hope this helps!
Go to amazon.com and type in Casio sports watches some are for only $15
G-shock,G-shock,G-shock…. all i gots to say buddy
@ Troop 27 member. G-SHOCK all the way bro! What type of G-shock do you have??
Casio G-shock is the best bang for your buck.
rolex
rolex is VERY expensive and are not good sports watches
The Casio MTG-900 is really heavy though.
Well if you are smaller than average size then yes it is heavy. but once you carry it on you wrist for a while you don’t even notice it. besides, its got a TON of technology packed into it! so it is going to be a little heavier than other watches!
CASIO G-SHOCK is the BEST!!! I have the GW500A-1V Atomic Solar watch got it for $60 at amazon.com (it is $120 any where else) best watch TIMEX,ROLEX and sooo many other watch companies cant hold a candle to this watch!
i would only trust my life to a timex. Besides timex created water proof and probably created shock proof, and the funny thing is the vets i know wear timexs, and there watchs time is exactly on time, so get rid of the rubber on those “watches”, and buy a timex cause only driving a truck over it could kill it.
Timex did not invent either of those features. Rolex made the first waterproof watch and CASIO was the first to manufacture a Shock Resistant watch.
I know for a fact that I could drive over my G-Shock with a truck and it would still work fine.
I like rolex watches
I perfer colman watches because i had a colman flashlight watch for 4 years and it only needed the battery changed once and it was the 2 flashlight batterys cause they went dead. But I dont have it any more because I lost it somewhere at a lake but i just got a differnt colman watch and it has prooved itself already.
go timex expedition
Timex 0 Casio 100. Casio is the king!!
I prefer Timex watches because most of them have lights and are water proof.
there all cool
best watches are Casio pathfinders, and Suuntos, Timex are not very dependable.
casio pathfinders are very expensive
yes an thing from casio is really good
g-shocks are the best
are gshocks water proof?
Most g shocks are waterproof up to 250 meters, which, unless you’re in a submarine, you’ll never go down that far.
I agree with exds Casio G-SHOCK is the best of the best! Granted it is really spendy ($120) but once you have it NO WAY is that thing going to break! And yes it is water proof (no way a $120 watch is not going to be water proof)The only way it will break is if you drop an anvil on it from 40 stories up! Best watch EVER!!!!
I want a G-SHOCK sooooo bad!! G-SHOCK ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YESSSSSSSS!!!! I got my G-Shock about a month ago and it ROCKS!! all ready I have dropped it,banged it,and soaked it and there isn’t a scratch on it!!!
water resistant watches are great because you can swim with it on and not worry about it shorting out or losing track of time
i bought a cheap watch at walmart and it works great
Timex WS4
timex are the BEST i recommend TIMEX some of the watches fog up on
the inside of the screen though
true. there the BEST
dude do you even know what it means when A watch fogs up?? It means water got in it!=( Casio will NEVER fog up! Timex is not as good as a Casio! However they are by far better then 10$ wal-mart watches!
You need to get a spynet watch! It has a camera ,a video camera,a voice recorder,a voice changer, a lie detector,games ,and it tells the time and the date!
do you really need all those?
Percy that really wouldn’t be a good watch for the outdoors.
Totally. It’s a cool play watch but if it’s not water-proof forget it.
Plus I also agree with Montana teen, since when will you need a lie detector when camping??? Spend the money and get a 120$ Casio G-SHOCK and that watch will last you forever! I’m not kidding! You’ll be able to hand it down to your grand kids!
Who said anything about camping? Since it can take picures and video, it’s great for museums and things like that.
I said it was a cool watch. but I go into museums like once a year so it would not be a good watch me. plus I am outdoors a ton and the weather can get nasty some times so if it’s not water proof forget it. I do agree it is a very cool watch for some one who lives in the city or someone who is indoors a lot. but just not for me.
timex expeditions with compasses work great and are handy
I got mine without a compass. I wanted it because it was cheap, replaceable, and light. I do cross country running, so do not need anything to weigh me down. I have had three of the same watch in three years, so it is by no means durable if you are Extremely athletic.
Dude, a compass weighs like 2 ounces…how is that going to weigh you down????
I concur chad… how is a compass going to slow you down runnerdude?
I have a Forester analog that has a small digital part that has the date,stop watch,time,and dual time. and lights up but not the digital part and its water resistant 100m(300ft) That is All
The forester is a Casio right?
timex iron man triathlon is a awsome watch. It is water proof 100 meter and it has everything.I got it for $35.00
Swiss army. Nuff said!
Are you rich? im just fine with my timex watch
dude… its worth the $$!
I like the Casio G-shock watch
COLEMAN DIGITAL ALL THE WAY!!!
lot of great watches at sports authority
Timex expeditions are great watches because they are durable and most are water proof to 100 meters
agreed and it matches my class a for scouts, i keep it set on Camp Rainey Mountain time ( boy scout camp in clayton, ga)
I agree haha but i lost mine…. 🙁 and, when i went to the dunes for camping i got a bunch of sand stuck in the button for the light… so that didnt work any more… but those watches are deffinately waterproof.
true
Japanese made watches are usually always the best made watches!
MJ is wrong,japanese watches are some of the worst. They’re good if you want a watch that will fall apart the fastest but if you want a good watch buy american
Where can you find American made watches?
If you want a great watch and make a lot of money you could buy a swiss made watch! to bad thats not me.
Be careful with your watches around water. I lost one watch completely to that, another from battery discharge, and my most recent one, I left a drop of water on the MODE button too long and it stopped working. I think I might have more luck with analog.
field rangers are good $10 at academy
Buy the Timex Ironman Triathlon
I have used Timex Ironmans’ for my past 3 watches and they are by far the best ones I have ever used.
i have that too
nope casio G-shock is unarguably the best watch ever
Invicta watches are the best. They make the most durable Diver’s watches.
Andy, I have a $40 dollar expedition that is waterproof to 150+ feet
and what do u want that for? unless you scubadive…
Its just for sounding impressive. XD
mine i got 4 like $10
walmart works wonders
I do not even have a watch!!! I want one so bad.
neither do I. I had one but it sank to the bottom of a lake.
I like the way you describe where to shop
Timix ROCKS
yep but they cant hold a candle to Casio G-SHOCK
my dad got a exspensive watch metal band snapped off in 3 minutes
instead try a more cheap watch for him or sugjest one
I want a water proof but are they expensive?
This depends on what you get, I generally spend $20-$40 for a waterproof watch that lasts for about two years.
Get a $120 Caiso G-shock and it will last you 20+ years
no, i have 2 water proof watches they were like $10 each
I Like Analog Over Digital
The Timex ‘Expidition’ is a GREAT watch! It has a compass,chronograph(stopwatch),timer,and an alarm,along with the time,day,and date.The watchband IS durable.I’d recommend this watch to anyone!
I love those watches, I always either buy one of those, or the Timex Iron Man. Those watches never die. I just get a new one every couple of years because the batteries die, and I don’t want to bother replacing it. Plus the battery is a quarter of the cost of the watch itself, when you buy the watch on sale.
how much is the Timex ‘Expidition’?
24.00
My mom gets a new Timex expedition watch like every two months because the break so much!
I’m looking at the G-Shock G100-1BV it has an Analog and digital face.
I have a Casio watch that my grandma gave me . It connects to satelites to get the correct time all the time!
watis the name of the watch?
thats awesome 😀
where did u get this wacth it sounds awsome and what brand is it
I like a wrist watch that has a watch alarm that plays a song such as Ludwig Beethoven’s song entitled, “Fur Elise (For Elsie)” or the Beach Boy’s song entitled, “Catch a Wave and You’ll Be Sittin’ On Top of the World”.
The watches that have the numbers and watch hands that glow in the dark after shining your flashlight on the watch face are really neat when determining what time it is after sundown.
I have only had the G-Shock for a week or so but i love it. the fact that it sets its self for times a day,solar charged battery,4 alarms, stop wach, shock proof, water resistant to 200m. All around its a GREAT watch
I got a G-shock for $125. It is atomic (calibrated to Ft. Collins Wyoming), has four separate alarms, a compass, automatic time-zone conversion, second time zone readout (good for traveling), weather report with barometer, calendar set function (ex. you have a camping trip on March X, 20XX,: it will inform you of it if you forget), digital display, date (duh, considering that it must tell the date if it has a calendar), metal band, and some sort of special face treatment for durability. It also has a reflector for emergencies ( I make people mad by shining it in their eyes from 100 feet away and watch as they try to figure out where the light is coming from). It is made of a elegant, sporty blue and gray steel with composite coating, whatever that means. It is incredibly user friendly, and oh, did I mention that it is solar powered and waterproof. Yep, no battery changes. The reason I got it for $125 is yes, sorry, it has been discontinued as of 2009. : (
They sill sell other types of G-SHOCK watches
I am wondering the same as falcon.
Any watch above $30.00 is great.
Colman watches (all of them) are great, inexpensive, and you can get ’em at Target
I Got A Coleman Watch and it came with a waterproof case and a mini survivil tool.
Something that needs mentioning here is that digital and quartz watches require batteries! If you choose one of these make sure to “Be prepared” with an extra battery in your gear if your going to need to depend on your watch in the wild. I prefer the “automatics” that use an off balance rotor in the back of the mechanism. The rotor is half of a disc that is weighted on one side and attached to the winding spring. The rotor is attached so that it is allowed to spin 360 degrees freely, and every time your wrist or arm moves, gravity makes the rotor spins to the other side, keeping the watch wound. Just make sure you get one that is waterproof or at least water resistant! These are usually measured in atmospheres (ATM). Each ATM is about 6 feet underwater, some watches indicate meters for water proof, which of course is metric!
what are you guys talking about
I have a Timex 1440 sports you can get them at Target it’s water resisant but it can go underwater JUST MAKE SURE YOU DON’T PRESS THE BUTTONS UNDERWATER!I’ve already ruined 1 watch doing that.
Psh. you can press all the buttons you want under water with a casio
I have a Luminox watch. It’s really durable! Mine has had to deal with being dropped in the Colorado river and submerged for almost 20 minutes if you don’t mind analog, is’t worth the price.
I got an Iowa watch it has two types of stopwatches,2times(of course),alarm,takes your pulse,and it lights up at night!cool huh?
Timeex makes great durable watches that will hold up forever. i had to throw out one watch because a button broke after 5 years of abuse.
Also, if you do a great deal of aquatic sports (ie: diving or snorkeling) get a watch that is 200m water resistant.
I like a watch that tells time.
Yeah, just like me! hahaha
thats all I really need
I have a timex ironman and it roxs
i am looking for a watch that tells the temputer alltitude and directions go bikes and watches
I like these but look at the prices!!! i got a off brand name for cheap and it works great
i like the freestyle tide 200 and the nike cuff.
The watches that are really cool are those with the wide leather bands. I never wore one before but I probably should start to wear one. I never had anything on my wrists before to wear so what would be the best one to get used to? someone said the wide bands are more comfortable too, are they?
what do you mean?
Want the Suunto X3 HR.
I want a Freestyle Tide 200 and a Nixson (dork) because their super-cool!
Freestyle tide thing-AWESOME!!!!!
The dork-MORE AWESOME!!!
Hmmm… no Timex IronMan! That’s my favorite watch, it’s so durable for a great price. I’ve had one for over two years and it finally bit the dust.
timex is nothing compared to CASIO G-SHOCK!
I LOVE THE SWEATBAND 1 IT AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
I agree with Bid T.
I agree with Burger, even though I don’t LOVE Tony Hawk.(He’s ok)
Im diging the ORIGO but the dork and the Casiso G-shock is tight to
FALCON YO!
great article
Any idea if there’s a watch somewhere that has a stopwatch, multiple daily alarms, heart rate sensor, thermometer, barometer, and compass?
Caiso G-Shock
i so want that nixon (the dork) watch because i love tony hawk.
I’m glad you chose to talk about watches. I’ve always wanted a watch that’ll do everything. Thanks for the ideas!
