Citizen sale. A few Promasters, Nighthawks, a perpetual calendar model.
My choice will be Stiletto, at 4.7 mm probably the thinnest affordable watch.

Target has a few different Fossil Gen 4 Smartwatches on clearance for $99.

They are probably either:
1. In the case with the wrong price.
2. In the back.

https://brickseek.com/target-inventory- ... 57-03-7140
https://brickseek.com/target-inventory- ... 57-03-2554

Pro Tip: Go to the store. Pull up the bar code from Brickseek on your phone. Scan it at one of Target's fancy price check screens. It will tell you how many they have and where they are.

ToM ended up being a little cheaper because they also had a 20% off on top of that, but then ToM had a $10 shipping fee while Drop ships free so it offsets it a little. Regardless, it's still a good price on these!

Gemnation Deal of the Day is a great price on the Tangaroa variant of the ever-popular Eterna KonTiki on a metal bracelet. Just $499 for this watch. I see listings on Overstock and Discount Watch Store for $799 but even there it's out of stock. There's a new listing for $700 + $14 shipping +$39 tax OBO on eBay as well, but no returns accepted which I always find sketchy. Retail $1,700 for this bracelet version.

Elements watches is having a 20% off sale, and then an additional stackable 15% off with code "DEALSPOTR15".

Don't know much about this microbrand, but it looks like they go one of the typical microbrand routes, focusing on very slim minimalist watches. These kind of look like a slightly more colorful love child between Skagen and Movado. They use reliable miyota quartz movements (no seconds hand to give that away), and come with a variety of leather, nato, mesh straps.

IMHO they look pretty stylish, a little nicer than the pricing would suggest especially with the discount. I think they could make some good gifts for the upcoming holidays as they look fancy with a touch of colorful flair, without breaking the bank.

This 40 mm on mesh which retails at $90 ends up being $61.20 with free shipping.

If anyone is thinking of buying one of these, I have one and would be willing to sell for less. I've only worn a few times. Mods please move if inappropriate.

Canadian deal ?
Costco.ca has the Casio Edifice Slimline Sapphire Chronograph (9.5mm thick, stainless steel case/strap) EFR-S567D-1AV for $79.99 ($35 off) until Oct 18/20 - looks to be close to all time low?
https://www.costco.ca/casio-edifice-bla ... 02002.html
May be cheaper in stores?

I'll probably get flamed for saying this; regardless, while this might be the best price RIGHT NOW, it's really just an ok price...historically speaking, as these were going for under $400 for quite a while within the not too distant past. Not trying to discourage folks from posting deals, rather, just trying to be a good consumer advocate!
