Gonna piggyback because this caught my eye. If you can handle the gargantuan size, this power reserve with inner bezel looks pretty awesome for $149:

Note that the strap/bracelet is sold separately.

But seriously the thing is huge:

Case Measurements: 48mm
Case Thickness: 17mm
Weight: 5.5 oz

Your signature is more relevant than ever.

Also, to answer your previous question about the Seiko 5 price jump: those watches are rumored to be on the chopping block, as are many 7S26-powered watches. Their replacements weren't announced yet AFAIK but they were leaked. Shameless plug for the MoT Discord, which is where I saw the screenshots :P

I was told on FB that Aragon makes watches for men, and that smaller watches were for women and boys. That was the day I learned Rolex and Omega don't make men's watches.

You know, the logo doesn't bother me, and I'm not normally "that's a deal-breaker for me kinda guy", but an automatic watch without a running seconds hand is a deal-breaker for me :lol: . Shame, too, 'cause it's a great looking watch at an equally attractive price :cry:

That middle symbol looks like a pile of something smelly.

The packaging was blinded when it saw that watch.

Tissot PRX (quartz, black dial) is $400 CAD (approx. $330 USD) after the promo code and shipping. Compare that with $375 RRP from Tissot's website or Nordstrom; Ebay seems to be trending at $340 or higher.

For all these Amazon Warehouse listings that a watch is in its original packaging, but the packaging is damaged, does this mean, that the watch has never been worn, is still perhaps in shrink wrap with tags, etc., but that the box is damaged -- which makes it "used"?

I have got some stuff that looked brand new, but the packaging was really beat up (i.e. original tape/seals appeared unbroken on packaging). Others looked like someone might have unpacked it, tried it on, then decided to return it for a refund. So, there is a chance some items might have a little dust on them or perhaps something even worse like a scratch.

I think Amazon just calls anything in the warehouse "Used", but the description that follows is a better indication of whether the item will still be like-new or not.
