I’ve been happy with my Fossil for 4 years now. Keeps time just fine and looks decent still, although the crystal is a bit scratched up now. If you don’t want to spend a lot you can’t beat a \<$100 Fossil. ![http://www.leaderpromos.com/images/catalog/pr5187_big.jpg](http://www.leaderpromos.com/images/catalog/pr5187_big.jpg) ---

Nixon’s are made to take a lot of abuse, and the crystal is recessed so it doesnt get scratched we sell all these at my work, the first one is $120 the second is $150 and the third is $90. ---

a couple guys on ebay from taiwan and the orient are selling genuine tag, rolex, omega, etc and they are going for really good decent prices. They are grey market, but 100 percent authentic. I bought a seiko from one of the guys for like 47 dollars, same watch is 249 here in the mall. I’ll post their ebay user id’s when i get a minute… ---

You can get PERFECT replica watches these days. Serial #s, gold, diamonds, you name it. There’s perfect replicas of $100000+ dollar watches out there selling for 10 percent of their price…close enough to even throw off a knowledgable person - same materials and everything just manufactured in third world countries. Maybe they have shit watches like Psychos cheap, but if you think you’re copping a 100 percent authentic watch for a fraction of cost, you’re wrong… ---

I agree with your friend about Bulova. They make quality watches that are affordable compared to your bling companies like Tag. It would really suck to damage or lose a $1000 watch, unless your banking like money grows on trees. Expecially if you paid more because of the name, rather than the watch being better. Here is the watch i bought. It’s exactly what i was looking for. ![http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B0007OWONU.01.SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V1109081059.jpg](http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B0007OWONU.01._SS500_SCLZZZZZZZ_V1109081059_.jpg) ---

Grey market is basically buying something from another area of the world where it is cheaper due to economic reasons. Think high end watches are going to sell for alot of money in a poor country? Nope. Thanks to ebay a few guys have started dumping this stuff onto the american market, and making a killing doing it. They are essentially putting watch retailers on ebay out of business. You can buy one less than a dealer can buy one for, and they are authentic. Seller one… [http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=pokemonyu](http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=pokemonyu) I have bought several watches from him, and he ships them express mail for way cheaper than express mail shipping costs. I had a watch in my possession from asia in less than a week. Seller two… [http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=we-sell-time](http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=we-sell-time) This is far different than buying a ten dollar tag heuer from a weirdo in battery park.
