I have a pretty nice Fossil, but rarely wear it anymore because the glass is chipped. That, and it's a little more 'dressy'.

I was checking out the Oris Skeleton - OMG! I think that is one of the coolest watches I've ever seen..

Wouldn't you like to know?
I started off like Mercop with the 5 $200 seiko watches but then moved into the deeper end a bit. My collection no consists of a Seiko Marine Master, Corum bubble autochrono, Sinn 203, Ball fireman Nighttrain, Omega Seamaster Pro, Omega Deville,a couple of Alfred Dunhills, and a Mont Blanc. I too lust after the Panerai's but it is much easier buy another then save that long.

I'm actually about to place a $1500 CYMA watch on Ebay for $1200 or Best Offer. I don't want to have it bid on since its brand new.

"We'll see, now you're only talking $1,500.00! Screw it, I'm gonna spend the $150 on the Fossil and save the rest for cigars!!!"

That is exactly what happened at my house, except my wife bought the watch and I can't bring my self to wear something like that:nodlaugh:

Just make sure to get one with a rubber watch band. The bracelet style ones do not have interchangeable bands. If you look at Mercop's original post you'll see that he also has one with the adapters for the zulu type bands.

You beat me to it, the Zilla with adapters rock. Be warned the Zilla is a huge watch. I can't seem to take my Tuna off. If I do anytime soon I will be wearing my Seiko Orange Monster. The black and orange monsters are a great way to get into dive watches.
