As for the watches, I narrowed it down to the DeBaufre Ocean 1, Boschett RR and Tissot Seastar 1000. I actually have a strong front runner..But I'll save that for later.
I stopped by some local jewelry and watch stores today and was not able to find a single model I was looking for. I was able to find some Accutrons at a popular chain store and try them on, but not the VX-200. I did like the feel of the skeleton Accutron I tried on though.
I also found a Tissot dealer/ watch repair store in the same mall. I was not able to get my hands on a Seastar, I guess it is discontinued (I do know it is available online though). I tried on some models for kicks and liked quite a few, I am going to keep my eye on Tissot as they have a neat selection. The salesperson helping me was surprisingly non pushy and very knowledgable....especially compared to the last mall salesperson I dealt with who didn't know the warranty for a watch he was showing me was (mind you he had a big honking badge on his shirt with the logo of said watch and representative typed below it!).
Anyways I'll let everyone know what I decide and thanks again for all the help!
