Timex Men's T18581 Camper Watch (Black)

I love this watch. It's so simple (tells the time - what more do you need?), elegant (you can wear it with anything), and I've been wearing it for three years now and it's not only still running, but it doesn't show any wear and tear. It's cheap, too - who needs a ten thousand dollar watch (except to brag) when all you need is a simple instrument to tell the time.

No problem at all with the volume of the tick - you've got to be in a dead quiet area to even hear it - and then only when it's within about a foot of your ear. The glow-in-the-dark feature is a little subtle, but it is there if you get your eye close enough. The watch is extremely...Read more
