MoT's WDF

Today I'm wearing a Casio Enticer, $8 from AreaTrend on Rakuten's shop after promos. Rakuten will sometimes drop a $10 credit on me, and this is where they go. The hands are polished; someday I want to color them with a permanent pen or something so they're easier to see. The lume is actually okay.

In the mail. Under $2 after one of those $10 credits from Rakuten's shop I mentioned above. I'm actually pretty excited -- I have high expectations. Look forward to trying some strap mods with it. 34mm. Model MQ24-7E.

Amazon has a 360 loop here.

Great watch and pic. I really like the fluted bezel on this. I've also seen this same watch except with Eastern Arabic numerals. I just had a $10 Rakuten credit that was expiring. I used it to buy some socks bc I'm incredibly exciting. And now about 2 weeks later Rakuten has given me another $10 that expires soon so I may have to look for a new Casio this time.

Speaking of Casios, Target is having a sale. The problem with buying cheap watches from Target is that they charge $5.99 shipping. But luckily Amazon will sometimes price-match the Target sale (occasionally for Macy's and Kohl's sales too) like they are now. So if you have Amazon Prime, you can get the watch for the same price on Amazon minus the shipping fee. I find it easiest to browse on the Target site HERE and then search for the watch by reference on Amazon.
The Tough Solar model for $19 has already sold out at Amazon. But there are still deals to be had, like the AE-2100W-1AVCF below with a World Time module, 10 year battery, and 200m water resistance for just $13.42. Product page here and link below.

Going through these Target/Amazon deals (I also find Target easier to browse), here's a model I've always admired, 42mm x 14mm per Amazon. $12.85. Model HDA600B-1BV.

FWIW, if you have a Target Red card you get free shipping and 5% off.

If anyone knows a girl/woman who could use a simple digital watch for timing a run or some other activity, just $3 gets you this Marathon by Timex T5K817. Amazon flash deals like this don't last more than a few hours, typically much less.

Missed that one as it is out of stock already. Quite a deal that was.

Yea, I was looking at this one today too. It's a really good deal. I especially like this customer pic from the reviews. In case the two-tone bracelet doesn't do it for you, here is another option.

Thanks for posting this. I bought one for my 8 year old and bought another for my 6 year old now.

Great watch however the expansion bracelet was impossible for me to size and it got destroyed. It's not the normal style I found tutorials for online.

Not bad looking. I knew about Q&Q watches. I think their solar atomic digital watches are a bargain and at less than $70 and I've considered adding one to my collection as a work beater. But I've never heard of these Falcon watches. Nice find. Unfortunately the Seiko sub-brands like Alba, Pulsar and Lorus are now normally all above the $20 mark but the Timex sub-brands like Acqua, Viewpoint, and Marathon are still dirt-cheap and might be another good source for bargain beaters.

An attractive 35mm from Timex Viewpoint for $15 incl. shipping. This seller also has sub-$20 Timex Acqua watches.

This one has been down to $11 at least 4 times over the last week or two. Checking for these deals in the morning is key. You almost never see these in the afternoon or later.

OK maybe forget what I said about mostly only finding these deals in the morning. I just bought three more of these for $9 a pop. Timex Expedition T40091. Gonna hopefully use them to trade with members here for more cheap watches.
