My wife and I were out of town and she broke the strap on her purse.  We hapened to be passing a TJ Maxx and se said lets go in and see ifI can pick up a cheap purse.  Of course I said yes and immediatly went to the watch case and found this little gem for $179.00.

First Generation Gevril, ETA quartz movement (too bad it wasn't the 2824 auto), screw down crown, sapphire crystal...more importantly I finally found something at TJM.

The wife got a purse too!!

Are you sure that wasn't the automatic...I have seen that model Gevril with auto movement for $299 on leather and $399 on SS at TJM down in Florida!

It was definetly the quartz, I probably would have bought it if it was the automatic, I think they just screwed up, it had a red tag on it too
