Everyone at work has one or two. It's crazy.

I've changed two batteries so far, both said "China case" on the back. The 3hand model had the smallest women's movement, and it was a 48'mm watch.

For $100, sure. These things are at least $350 used.

Chinese watch,I don't care if the final assembly is done here in Detroit.

Wait, $1325 and it has an Argonite quartz movement? WTF is an Argonite quartz movement with "Swiss and other parts?" My guess is they're not flying off the shelves.

I think Bill Clinton was wearing a Shinola pilot the other night when he gave his DNC speech.
