Here's my cheapy Skagen. For a student strapped for cash, I think it looks nice for $40.

What watch is this?Here's a poor mans watch
What watch is this?
What do you guys think of the Sarb 017 Alpinist?
I've got a beautiful Helson 40mm Shark Diver on its way.
From what I've heard the lugs make them wear a bit large, but I'm hoping the 40mm version will go well with my 6.75" wrist.Nice. Let us know how the SD fits. I have wanted one for eons, just have been nervous to pop my micro cherry.
What a coincidence, that's actually a photo I took a few days ago I got the leather NATO from cheapestnatostraps.com; the strap is very comfy, but the leather may be a bit thin for some.I have one of these bad larrys en route. Uses a Sea-Gull ST17 movement. For a $120 seems like a solid watch. Anyone know where I can get that strap? Or have any suggestions for good watch strap websites?
Excellent Seiko, I've always been a fan of the SARB collection. As for the Helson, I was indeed able to get quite a discount buying used I received a Seiko SNZH60 yesterday, and what a fantastic watch it is. Came on a gold bracelet but I thought it was a bit blingy, so I swapped it with a black NATO. I think it definitely helps tone down the "bling" factor.I took advantage of a relatively weak ¥ a couple months ago and picked up the SARB017 and love it. The emerald green dial is a real stunner in the sunlight and the watch goes great in just about any situation. My only complaint is that the tang on the band seems sort of chintzy and out of place for the watch (which if it were not for the weak yen, would probably be one step above the "poor man's watches" category).(Too much glare in the photo, but a great looking watch regardless) I love these Helson's. I think these are probably at the very upper limits of what should be considered a poor man's watch (unless you get a great deal on one). Every time I check them out, I am very impressed with the specs for cost and they seem to have some of the best lum.
