I held off buying a new watch because I could never afford the one I wanted..

I can't tell you what in particular I had against Timex, but there you have it, I was a watch snob. Since I was late for everything and driving people crazy asking them the time, I finally had to buy one for daily wear.
This inexpensive, nondescript little watch has turned out to be one of my better buying decisions. It withstands a ton of physical abuse just from things like  bathing the dog, doing laundry and  spilling coffee all over it. It really is an amazingly durable watch for the price.  I swear the face has not a single scratch..and I NEVER take it off.
I especially like the way it lights up when i depress the bezel. Discreet, but bright enough that I can easily see the time. It does say unisex but I personally think it would look a bit small on a mans wrist. The face size is somewhere around the size of a quarter.

 I cannot find a single thing wrong with it (which for me is unheard of!!)
