JCrew and Timex partnering with a pretty cool looking military watch... Might be worth getting one of these just to have... Kind of Retro.

Just say no.

I like the looks of the watch but two things bother me about it. 1) It's a quartz, and 2) The "distressed" face. I'd rather go with a Hamilton Khaki if I was looking for something of this genre.

A third thing to take into consideration.... TIMEX. Just buy a junk one and take it apart and you will see why NOT to buy one.

Here is a REAL Elgin military for the USA Army issue. This is a great watch for the price.

Why buy a new POS when quality is at your fingers... you can wear and enjoy these and when you are done sell them for at or more than what you pay!
