Jeep99dad wrote: Newton wrote: Depending on the model the new auto's go in that 1000-1500 range. I have seen them on various sales forums for 650-850. I purchased the original Bathys when they were just starting out, direct online and the price for quartz was approx 350.00 or maybe even a little less. Now they are only available at "Brick and Mortar" and they start at 650.00. I can only imagine that the mark up is to make it a profitable venture for the additional layer in the distribution chain. Can't really see forking over the dollars to buy one new. |

I had it easy: We just start an LNG filling station and things are slowly coming in place...Yes the sub beater did survive: Like a champ... But that what I expected, no surprise: When you look at the movement itself, the hand-crank 2801-2 is a rough&tough little boy...Simple and efficient;) |

I love the Sumo and the one they call Samurai but they go for lots of $ it seems. I have narrowe it down to 3 I need to research further: the landmonster, yellow kinetic SKA 367 and 385 ( I think they are called the BFK and Ceasar?) so I have decided to buy one more Seiko but not sure which of these:) though I almost pulled the trigger on a BFK with a killer bracelet today while I was shopping for my V Wolf:)!!!' it never stops!! |

Check out some of these low-priced models/nicknames and you'll be amazed: Frankenmonster, LandShark, Samurai, Buzzsaw, Knight, MonsterLite and of course, the Monster. Then, set your crosshairs higher and look at the Sumo, Tuna and Marine Master (Prospex), Velatura, and the upcoming Storm Trooper, which are at mid-range. The Storm Trooper is a limited release of 300 units mostly destined for the domestic Japanese market. Just when think you've had your fill and are about to burp, switch your taste buds to the higher end of the scale and hunt down the Spring Drive and Grand Seiko. Here, the entry level units go for about US$4,000. It takes a paradigm shift for some of us to trawl the lower-priced end of the watches, but I think if you do your research right and choose well, you'll be very pleased. I still have Seikos of 1975 vintage that run very well, still water-resistant, and still collectible decades after their release. The hunt never ends. |
