    Apparently Timex is not allowed to make a watch that costs more than 150 bucks. Apparently for 500 bucks they should have had a mechanical movement and better yet, a US made movement, sapphire glass vs gorilla glass... looks too much like a Nomos...blah blah blah ...it goes on and on. Some of the comments under the articles about the series are quite hateful. Bottom line, it’s all US designed, made and assembled except for the Swiss movement. Its also a very nice piece.

    Lol. You know what. I think you’re right on that. Have to rethink that combo.

    Two tough days back-to-back at the skatepark calls for new Dunkin’ lip balm and Hooters wings. Get this...the new Dunkin’ lip balm smells [and tastes] like donuts...amazing. :D
