It's a site much like woot.com, 1 item per day, sells until it's gone. Today is an Accutron VX-200 3 hand automatic. They don't say which movement other than it's a swiss 25 jewel automatic. Their chronograph movement has a valjoux 7750, so I assume this is an ETA also. Sapphire crystal, and about 43mm diameter. It's $290 + $10 shipping I think. They're going on ebay for about $400, so the price seems right. 3 different colors available.
Happy hunting!
David

Thanks for the tip. I just bought a black dial/black bezel version. That is a lot of watch for $250!!!!

Wear the VX-200 for the sleek value of attractive function. This hot Valjoux automatic sits in solid steel performance on your wrist and exhibits the fine function through sapphire crystals on the front and the caseback. Luminous hands and markers point out the time and move around bold counters and the date display at 3. For your diving pleasures, you'll enjoy the unidirectional elapsed time bezel and the solid fold-over buckle/safety clasp with extender.

I HAD to jump on that.  That's more than a great price on a nice, Swiss made watch with a GREAT bracelet. 

...okay, NO MORE watches until after the holidays.  Seriously.

How can you go wrong on this watch? Sapphire crystal, Swiss movement, gorgeous bracelet, Tissot-like bezel, nice looking dial, etc. Amazing deal for $250.

I bought one!

I am glad I didn't spring for the one I had in my hand at the Bulova outlet this summer.

They wanted $599.


It has a 2824 in it, by the way....not a Valjoux.

It is really hard to find accurate descriptions on watches posted online. Most everywhere I looked there was no info on the movement. One site claimed Valjoux. One site said it was 45mm and 45mm thick (which would be pretty tall). Another said 42mm. Bulova gives no such info.

42 mm sounds about right...maybe 41.

The chrono might be 45, but I can't say for sure...I have never handled one.

The bracelet is a work of art...you're going to love it.
