Here is one excellent choice @$435. It can still be had as a Steinhart also:

Island Watch has a very popular Zeno Airplane diver in many colors between $399 and $599. It is much bigger than the one above.

http://www.longislandwatch.com

Of course Seiko has a bunch as does Orient. All good watches. The Orsa company has models in your Price range also. There are many good models to choose from in your budget range. See what some others say too.

If they were true Swiss I could see that price but it is up to the buyer. My brothers friend loves his and my brother is thinking of getting one. He is into the rose gold stuff. LOL :D

They are beefy and heavy and have a cool look to them. You could always get it and if you don't like it return it. ;)


Skip...I gotta disagree with you.  I do not think they are a little overpriced...I think they are WAY overpriced mistake.gif, not too mention that they are strictly a "made for TV brand" of uncertain origin...and most I've seen tend to be ostentatious!

That said....there are a lot of nice Swiss automatics one could get for that kind of money...or if quartz is your bag...their are some AWESOME Seiko watches for 1/2 the price.

I like these threads where people wake up and show passion !!!  :D  My take is a little gaudy and overpriced to be sure :shock: ........ You can buy ALOT MORE Watch for the money ... ALOT MORE .......
