    The general consensus is that they are a great watch for the money. I have another Seiko automatic, so I'm comfortable with how accurate they are.

    Are they too played out? I like the look.
    They're big, but super reliable. I've owned several. The coolest part is that you can easily get parts to mod them from these guys: http://www.10watches.com/apps/webstore/

    I've done several and keep this one around when I want to wear a watch I don't care about hurting.

    that's why I joined the Army, I'm not about that life as I'm deathly afraid of water (no not showers too...). When I had to do water survival training for being a crewchief I was petrified.

    but back on topic it's my favorite watch I just wish I had the GPS option.

    My Suunto Core Military watch been using the same battery since I got it back in DEC '11. As a crewchief it helped to get my bearings when we would be fired upon I could give them a direction (north, east, south, etc) and it has a large display so I could read the timer for my fuel checks. And it looks cool haha

    I got this Kelton the other day, I guess it is owned by Timex. It is a wind up, I am guessing the date is around 60s or so. It keeps perfect time and is super quiet. I do not know how many jewels it is, I was thinking of getting it cleaned and polished. My other two watches are also nothing special, just Timex weekenders. Great daily watches, one day I want to invest in a really nice mid grade watch.
