Got a new ultimate beater few days ago, Casio W-800 (tan display). Dirt-cheap, basic functions only, 100m WR, retro look... Good for cycling, hiking and everyday chores, no worries about being scratched or broken.

My Seiko 5 Military (SNK803) settled at 3-4 secs/day after break-in. Excellent workhorse with 7s26 movement, I just love it.

Cheers

I too have a Seiko 5 (same model) and while it is on the "smaller" size range it is definitely a fantastic watch for the price with that excellent proven workhorse of a movement. Can't go wrong with that one!!!

What, no Swatches?

Its a Swatch Irony Body and Soul that I bought in December of 1999 as a Christmas present to myself.

The only thing I don't like about it is that it uses an acrylic lens. Still, it's a nice watch that didn't cost a lot so I'm happy with it.

I have an old gold plate Omega that my dad gave me some years ago. I need a nice leather strap for it. Any suggestions?

(edit)

Nevermind, I looked online and see that I can buy Omega straps for $300+. I went to Macy's and bought an understated black leather strap for it.

At least the Hamilton shown in this thread is a Swatch brand and any watch using an ETA movement like the Sinns and my Guinands shown here use at least a main assy supplied by Swatch.

;)

Body and/or souls from Swatch (like the tie in to my own Swatch?). Nice!
 
thanks, that's exactly the watch, I have my summer band on.
the light was perfect in the car, I HAD to take a pic, first time i uploaded via my phone. I'm not sure why it's sideways... :S
