Knife and Watch combo. Let's see them!

I’m huge fan of the Khaki…several sizes and options to choose from. Keeps great time. Tons of reserve power.
Agree w everything Josh says BladeCommander BladeCommander Hamilton makes a great classic watch and they just work. They are part of a big conglomerate so you can always find one at a discount at retail or even steeper discount on the “pre-owned” market if you’re looking to save money on the initial buy. The khaki, and especially the king khaki on steel bracelet is a pretty great example of a go anywhere do anything watch.
 
Casio was where I started in the late 80s. I wore a Casio chronograph for about 4 years, and it wasn't anything negative about the watch that made me throw it away, it was a Valentine's Day gift from my ex wife, and I didn't want to be reminded of that every time I checked the time.

Then I traded into a couple of Citizen Ecodrives, foolishly thinking the Eco part referred to automatic, because I was trying to get away from batteries. I had had them for weeks before realizing they were solar.

I have switched to Seiko autos, Seiko 5s and a Seiko Presage, because I wanted away from batteries and I want accuracy and reliability, and their price point is about as high as I can justify where I am in life at the moment.

I started out with a Timex Mercury when I was 9, I wish decent manuals were still that affordable. I can remember my dad saying it "cost him 2 hour's pay and I better take care of it". Now the "more affordablle quality autos" I buy cost me 2 or 3 day's pay...

People say we need to make more money, I say we need to make our money worth more again...
Orient makes great affordable automatics. Robust divers and the Bambino has a cult following of it's own
