Show your cheap banger
Does anyone wear cheap $100-$200 bangers?
If so, show what you got. This is certainly well under $100 but on days I’m ranching or breeding cattle, this cheapy goes on. I hate keeping my iPhone in my pocket and I like to know the time mostly, especially without the need to pull the phone out of my pocket. This will get replaced often. |

I purchased this Victorinox Officer Ratchet Bezel from The Sharper Image in the mid-nineties. Gone through a few straps but still going strong. I wear it when I go out to my industrial facilities and construction sites.

Why post this subject in the Rolex/Tudor watch forum which clearly states Rolex/Tudor discussions only.

Agreed; this should be moved to Open Discussion.

This question was for ROLEX enthusiasts who also wear cheap watches. It was not asked of people who primarily wear cheap watches, who also happen to have a Rolex. So I would argue that it does belong here.
With that in mind, aren't you a "moderator"? Don't you have to ability to move it? If so, just move it, rather than post an irrelevant rant. |

G shock Casioak ~£100
And Omega Seamaster 36mm ~£2300 Bang for your buck, or pound, I don’t think it gets much better.

Casio G-Shock 5610U, less than €100 from Amazon. A fun, cheap-as-chips watch for when I don't want to risk my treasured old Submariner. And as I understand things the OP was about Rolex wearers who ALSO wear cheap "bangers", like me, so imo perfectly relevant to this forum!

Only here could such an innocent thread be considered controversial in any way.
