Hiya, Gang! It's HUMPDAY, so the next weekend is definitely in sight!
This is Day 2 of my week of "cheap under $20 watches" I thought I'd show you (just some of them). I discovered these inexpensive watches to be good buys for such watches; case in point: this NAVIFORCE Quartz watch with Roman numerals, model # NF9126M. taping in at 46mm x 13mm, and rated at 3 bars water resistant. Quartz movement is rock steady, case is worked very well, no lume, but a big, comfortable watch with an easy-to-read dial. The strap is not gen but a smooth feeling imitation manufactured quite well. dave:

Cuervo y Sobrinos today with Samurai commander Naoe Kanetsuga (16th/17th century). The symbol on his helmet is Japanese Kanji meaning "love". Some believe that it symbolized Kanetsuga's love of the Shinto war gods. I picked up this statuette in Kyoto a few years back

Hiya, Gang!
Pamsday was given a day off today so I may continue with the "$20 and Under" watch thread. It'll appear next Thursday.
Today is a "two-fer;" this AIDIS quartz sports watch with adjustable dial (model #my-049) and another NAVIFORCE quartz watch w/ date (model # NF 9044M). The AIDIS tapes in at 46mm x 13mm and has two-tone lume, while the NAVIFORCE comes in at 45mm x 10mm and just has lume on the hour and minute hands. Both are attached to very comfortable straps and are fun to wear. As with the other inexpensive watches, these were inspired by the "$20 and Under, let's see them" thread on watchuseek.com. Although both are "cheap" in price, that adjective does not extend to the fit and finish of these watches. Sometimes bargains come to us in unsuspecting packages. dave:

Hiya, Gang! Welcome to Friday, the official start of another weekend!
Today is Day #4 of the "Watches Under $20*" thread I started on Tuesday. today's ride is this SINOBI Sub Diver (#II1132?) purchased a long time ago. Although one of the watches a little above the $20 mark, it's a piece that's quite well, overall. Quartz powered, the case and bracelet are well finished, with its case measuring 44mm across w/o crown and 13mm thick; has a smooth rotating bezel with soft, greenish lume. Quite the piece! dave:

Hiya, Gang! This is the last of the "$20 and under" watches. I have a few more but am eager to get back to the normal stuff. For Day 5, another SINOBI Sub Diver with a Coke bezel and missing pearl. Like its sister from last night, it's quartz powered, large-but-comfortable w/ decent lume and accurate time keeping. dave:
