BULOVA Men's Marine Star Automatic Two Tone Style: 98A106 http://www.worldofwatches.com/cust/dailydealsteal.asp?d=0 Saw this earlier today... not for everyone, I don't typically like gold on watches even the two-tone Rolexes but I like this one for some reason. I love the dial and exhibition case back revealing the gold color auto Myota signed mvt for $99. The gold is kept to a minimum even on the bracelet and ties in nicely with the gold part of the mvt visible throught the 'skeleton widow' in the dial. ![]() ![]() Brand Bulova Style 98A106 Case Brushed and polished stainless steel Dial Color Blue dial with yellow gold tone hands Bracelet Stainless steel with yellow gold tone polished accents Clasp Type Push button deployment with safety Movement Japan automatic, 21 jewels Crystal Mineral Water Resistant 100 meters Case Diameter 46 mm Case Thickness 14 mm Bracelet Width 22 mm Bracelet Length 9.0 inches Series Marine Star Style Casual Size Men's Case Back Exhibition Luminous Hands and hour markers Bezel Function Unidirectional yellow gold tone and blue bezel Other See thru skeleton window at 8:00 Material Stainless steel |

You'll make me drool with the worlddiver(Only if it's the blue model:D Hahaha) What is your price range for next month? Seriously, as you been shooting on divers lately, you could consider a more dressy watch of nice quality and unbeatable price!: http://www.timetechtalk.com/view_topic.php?id=19047&forum_id=8 Last edited on Sat Jan 23rd, 2010 07:35 pm by Hammerfjord |

As it the worldiver color, I hesitated a long time as I liked things in both models... Forgot which I ended up going with goofy I checked that linky and LOVE that Tissot, nice dressy watch with a cool mvt. I may need to hit Oscar up with a PM on that one! I love divers but been wanting a nice Pilot too or a nice sub maybe. My range will depend on my feb15th paycheck which I'll know Thursday:) Feb 15 is when bonuses are paid for us and I will spend a small portion on a new toy for me, most likely a watch, the rest goes to debt and a vacation. Conservatively, I would say range will be 500-2000, if paid what I should maybe 3000. I do have a dress watch, an auto Baume Et Mercier Hampton Milies. I don't have a Rolex nor a nice Rolex homage like a Steinhart, don't have a Pam or nice homage. Always wanted a new Auto Breitling.... A cool looking 42-45mm avaiator maybe... Also don't have an Omega except for my gd pa's old chrono that isnot in working condition:( So Many outthere.:) |

I have way too many watches and when i saw a "want to buy" ad i just let it go for what i paid that was around $130 if i recall, no other reason! It sounds like you have some incoming that will be way more enjoyable!woohoo.gif |

Hey Brice you have a good eye. The Tissot O has up came from me to McWright and then to O if I remember correctly. I can tell you it was a sweet and good looking Swiss timepiece. You would do well to grab it imho.:D ![]() |

Brice.....don't like 2 tone watches??? Hmmmm....seems to me you are not yet in your 40s. But when you get there, you'll have this gentle, daily twitch that gets stronger and stronger and then one day, this twitch will overpower your arm arm and then out flies the wallet and pop goes the 2 tone watch purchase. Happened to me many years ago, amigo. Don't fight it..........it will come |

bigrustypig wrote:Brice.....don't like 2 tone watches??? Hmmmm....seems to me you are not yet in your 40s. well you're right and off a little at the same time, I am not 40 as you guessed but I am not far. I will be 38 April 5th (but 25 at heart:) ) and we have 5 girls. I am glad you didn't say I looked 40+ on my pics;) my wife will be 42 this year and everyone thinks she is the youngen:) That being said, I don't hate two-tones and some though rarely speak to me and I could wear them though I would not spend a lot of $ on them. My dad's got that 6000+Euros Rolex that is a blue-gold two-tone and as great of a watch as it maybe I could never spend that much $ on a two-tone. Too flashy most of the time and just not my taste but never say never, you could be right and my tastes could change later on. I can't say for sure that I truly dislike black and gold together. Blue and gold I might do. I do have one two-tone but it is subtle in contrast and it looks dressy for a pro diver. But it is a <$100 Invicta watch which I surprisinly fell for. Pax. I really dig that Tissot and would be a great addition as I only have one true dress watch and it is a rectangular expensive B&M. This would be a great altenative. Why did you get rid of it? The darn flip disease?;) |
