    But when you need a really pimp watch, for $10 you have fun watches:
    I got two one is the milo and the other is the sub for the price it won't break the bank and they are fun watches and as it's me got them later and had a bargain. so win/win they was happy to move them on I was happy because the price I paid. I thought was the fair price that they should be sold new at. so I got what I wanted and they got what they want so alls good that ends well


    sorry three I got the Daytona as well

    Kind of...

    I used to have one, but it's a bit hefty at 40mm x 14.5mm. My wrist is 7.5" and it felt big.

    I wish companies would take the Explorer template but go a bit further away from the aesthetic details of the various rolex models - ie there's no need to copy the hands and the numerals quite so slavishly.

    Agreed. I would definitely prefer different hands, Mercedes looks to fussy to me.
