This deal was here and gone in a flash but I managed to snag a few. Timex Ironman T5K1969J. Definitely not normally a less than $20 watch. These things are little tanks and they were only $11 a pop. I don't know why Amazon lets me do this. Hopefully they actually ship. 👇

OK, I searched Amazon this morning, but didn’t check early enough. Going to have to remember first thing tomorrow.

It took me awhile to craft an Amazon hyperlink that always behaved the way I expected: Casio and Timex, ordered by ascending price. Here it is:

I’m kinda digging this one for $19.99 with free Prime shipping.

Do it.....holds up to 30 phone numbers! Product page here and instructions here. I love that Casio still makes this stuff. And I like to think there's still somebody out there that has not yet embraced the flip phone but is using this thing to store their numbers instead. They're probably still driving around looking for a pay phone. Even if you don't use it for the Telememo feature, you could definitely use it for the alarm, timer, and alternate time zone. Only thing I don't like about these is that once you get used to a half-decent bracelet, it can be hard to go back to janky-ass hair-puller like this.

I dot know about this team, but it is currently the cheapest Scout you can get. <$13 for a Scout? Sure it is a weird color in the dial, but if you had any spare dials or wanted to play around with indigo dial refinishing then this could be a good deal. Other teams are available, but this is the cheapest.

A fresh dial and a bit of lume could make something pretty nice.

The price has slowly been dropping over the past few days. If it hits $10 then I might need to add some of these to my already bulging modding stock.

Had a tough-solar variant of this watch back in mid 2000's during my HS years. It was sweet, although I gotta say you'll maybe want a variant you can swap straps on.

Not super-cheap, but a $15 MRW200H is worth a mention, imo. I love mine. I struggle with a desire to collect all of them, especially after seeing how good they look on natos.

Here's an alt colorway on nato. OP says here he didn't mod anything but it's a tight fit:

Was just about to pot that after seeing on SD. I grabbed one. I thought it'd be the more expensive watches to do me in and it's actually turning out to be all these sub $20 ones that are getting me . Lol
