It would be a good vacation watch for me......
I have gotten so used to wearing a watch, I even sleep with it on....
I could still wear my watch and just live in the NOW......
but I ain't paying $50 bucks for it!

There was another one...a little bit cheaper...I thought it was either "Signals" or "Wireless" catalog that had it???

Anyone remember it???

Never mind ...I found it...It was "Signals" and it's only $3 less..

$50 isn't too bad, especially since you'd probably be able to use that band for another, actually working watch.

I do wish there were another model/style option. I'm not too into the leather strap. I know the wide band is making a come back, but am I the only one that thinks of Mike Brady when they see one of these?

I was thinking about just taking a Sharpie marker (I never leave home without one!) and writing the word "now" on my wrist where a watch would normally go. :lol:

Well, I only carry a black one with me on a daily basis, but I'm pretty sure that my "tub-o-stuff" in my trunk has red, green, and blue ones :wink:

yep. I made my own out of an old watch, took the 'machinery' out, put a piece of cardboard with the word NOW on it. Cheap is as cheap does.
