Would you would you not

Would you wear or not that watch?

I'm curious very curious to know why.

50m water resistance

20mm lugs

In what scenarios? Where?

Do you own it? Have you seen it before?

Let's talk!

That'd be a great grilling watch. Not so fancy that you worry about hurting it, and it has a useful digital timer. And if you keep it in good shape, will serve as a business casual dress watch.

·

Hell yeah I would wear it, especially when my wife calls me an old man. 🤣

·

Great vintage vibe.

I'd wear it.

·

With pride!

Short answer is yes. Long answer is: I think that watch has an updated version of the Miyota 4800 inside. I'm not sure, I've seen variants like the T480 and some others. I take that from the location of the crown in relation to the other buttons. That movement was shared by a company that made a 'Navigator' watch that was advertised inside magazines and went under a number of brands, including Armitron, Waltham, Consort, Michele, etc. The info I found indicated they were made from 1980-1989. I had an unbranded 'Navigator' when I was a teenager and recently picked up a lot of them on eBay recently. So far, 3 of the 6 work.

Sure thing. I know I put my watch through a lot when I was a kid, so the Armitron in your example should be a reliable and versatile piece.

Yes. Deep blue dial. Ani-digi. Armitron's a reliable brand for not much $$.

·

Yes #armitron

I've been looking at a number #armitron watches lately. I'm not fond of anadigi styles. However, I might would get one of these.
