Not sure if this is a deal or not, but Amazon has a 42mm Pagani Design automatic GMT with sapphire on a bracelet for $111.99. Reading elsewhere says it has a DG5833A movement, so I assume that's some sort of Chinese caliber.

Barton Elite Silicone straps at $16 on Amazon for the next ~2.5 hours. Normally $21.

I wish that watch were 38mm?

Eco-Drive Promasters are <$200, which is usually my threshold for a deal. Not all time lows, but decent. The green (BN0158) is a few bucks cheaper at $195.99.

That green one has always been higher than the black and blue versions. In the past, the black and blue versions were much, much cheaper on Prime Day. Both the black and blue were $105 in the past. Last year the blue made it down to $129.99. If they get that low again I may have to impulse purchase both colors again. These are great watches. Although it is very hard for my poor eyesight to see the blue lume. Green lume is always better imo.

I have one Pagani, and it seems perfectly fine for the price. Reviews on this one are mixed, but you can always return it.

I learned a new word today:
"Please rotate the crown about 20 laps when Automaticsing the watch for the first time"

I prefer this design in a quartz. If Invicta still made these I'd buy them again too.

Amazon Warehouse has a Victorinox INOX automatic on bracelet for $387.09. Normally $500-550. Sounds like it is new with packaging damage.

If $112 is too much of a gamble they are also offering a 40mm version for $87.99 in your choice of bezels: black, batman, coke, pepsi.

[emoji115][emoji115] The Devil Diver is a pretty decent deal considering its coming straight from Bulova.

I so want this green one but I've seen it on the really nice bracelet from the gray market for $225. Looking now those have gone up a bit from a couple of months ago. That bracelet is a $120 bracelet, and supposedly one of the best that Citizen makes.

I'm going to sit it out a bit longer and hope Citizen releases this one officially in the US.

Right, the red and green colorways are not officially sold in the US, they're gray market imports. Thus more expensive.

If you scroll down it shows that it is model 8926OB, which is 40mm.

8926OB is also the modder darling.
I dabbled in a little Invicta modding (mostly took them apart, got busy, put on a shelf, didn't finish). The case logo grinding always freaked me out.

Now I am trying these as a base for modding instead (40mm, ceramic, NH35 with 28.5mm dial compatibility):
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001634750731.html

Got one on sale earlier for about $65-70 USD after all the confusing coupons/discounts were applied.
I'm hoping the jubilee bracelet on the version I ordered doesn't suck. It will be my first time trying one.
