Hey! Back then slim was all rage my man @tophatjohnny ! Just like everything else, it's a fashion industry!
Looking forward to when TopHat's come back in a fury!
Oh brother I'm slim to win. And TopHats to the Movado. I had quite the array of them back then but this slimblanc I'm sporting is a forever mainstay. Ultra Slim. Was just messin with the Fox. 😄🎩
Dang brother! You quoted me before I though the better of a snide rhetorical on the Top Hat! Just funnin' for sure, but thought the better of it!

I’m selling off a couple of pieces so I can fund another purchase.
The first is a Fossil Decker CH2692 chronograph watch. The movement is quartz. The case diameter is 44mm and the band width is 23mm. It’s in excellent used condition. The extra links for the bracelet are included.
The second is a Fossil Aeroflite AM4512 field watch. The movement is quartz. The case diameter is 44mm and the band width is 22mm. It’s in excellent used condition. It includes a black leather strap that was purchased a few months ago.
The NATO straps are 22mm wide and are in excellent condition.

Went to Vegas two weeks ago, and though I didn't gamble any, they still got the better of me. Brought these two home. I had been floating between a number of IWC models, and couldn't pass up the chance to snag one of the last limited edition 150th year anniversary models.
As a general rule I am not a fan of Tags. However I do love the Monaco's association with racing, and am a sucker for the Gulf livery.

Now that I own one decent mechanical watch, I’m thinking about getting another. This time I’d like more of a beater. I’m looking at used dive watches with either a date or day-date complication. Seiko Turtles and Samurais are readily available for $200-$400. I might go a bit higher than this. If anyone can suggest other good value brands that are similar and not too gaudy, please let me know.
