@Nsjong Are these the fluoroelastomer material you discussed HERE?

Yes, but still notably less on AliExpress as they periodically go down to $11-12 USD.

Unusual Calvin Klein quartz “Bullhead” chronograph at Ashford:

https://www.ashford.com/us/watches/calv ... 80070&so=6

I know it’s a CK, with a 44mm case and mineral crystal…but it is a Swiss chrono with an unusual form factor. For $69 (list $369, normal price $188) it might scratch somebody’s itch.

ALSO...some of those CK automatics are still listed at $149.

Sale going on at AE right now for $11. Seems like it's one of their site wide sales, if you're looking for cheap straps.

Or this one, with different buckle/deployment clasp options:

Really tempted by the Christopher Ward Rapide. Anyone have experience with it?

Actually, that image makes me run the other way.
Don't care for the look of tritium.

Also, I can't stand a 4:30 date window placement.
But this one isn't for me.

And me, sitting over here loving 4:30 dates AND Tritium AND 40mm watches! But I just bought two watches. I hate this place. Time to sell a watch I guess.

Not with the Rapide in particular, but I have had I think 4 or 5 CW watches of all different types over the last few years. At half off they are great values, IMO. I wouldn't hesitate.

At least we won't be competing for the same deals!

Damn you!!! I really don't want to spend $450 on a watch today, but it seems to be a losing battle.

Dammit...

Jesssusss..this and the Cw's.... I'm trying to hold out for a used Nightbreaker...must resist...

[dumberdrummer]

Man, I am so sad I missed that white and red trident. My alarm didn't wake me up today...

Sounds like your next purchase should be a new alarm clock, rather than a new watch
