 I completely agree as far as the beater comment. While this will be by default, being smaller and quartz, and inexpensive, I certainly won't be using it to pound in any nails.

I'm trying to figure out what strap to put on it. This NATO is very comfortable, to my suprise, but w/ the thinner watch, I don't like the extra loop near the top. I might look for a 2 piece NATO, so that I can also put a deployant on it, as I really prefer the convenience. I'm also considering one of those nylon and leather straps. On a typical watch they can look a little Timex-y (is that a word?), but it would fit the look of this one. It's really a shame, because this grey strap really looks great w/ the dial.

Thanks for the comments all!

BTW, does anyone happen to know if the beige faced one has a luminous dial? The auction description seems to indicate it, but before I bid on one I'd like to make sure.
