WCWC U200 American Qualification (Watch Crunch World Cup). I need your help.
Hi everyone. After testing the waters with GADA watch challenge I have decided to go further and keep doing what I was doing with clashing watches together. I'm mostly fascinated by cheaper watches so that is logical that I'm starting a Watch Crunch World Cup U200 (under 200 USD). There are no limitation for the watches here except the price and that all watches should be not used. They can be mechanical, quartz, digital, homage, tiny, huge, dress, chronographs etc. We are of course leaving fake watches out. They should burn in hell. Of course there is going to be a lot of watches in that competition. So I decided to make regional qualifications for Americas, Europe (incl. Russia), Asia w/o Japan, Japan. We are starting with American qualifiers and I'm selecting the contestants. About a half of them will be able to get to the final stage of the WCWC U200.
Here are the contestants for now:
Q Timex M79
Q Timex 1978

Timex Marlin

I want to make the Watch Crunch World Cup interactive and inclusive. So please help me find more contestants in the comments. Surely I have missed some great watches under 200. What are your favourites made by companies of both American continents?
Relatively inexperienced and humble watch wearer. Not much of a collector. Enjoy the design, engineering and history. 6.7 inch (17 cm) wrist. Love to look for hidden gems, especially in affordable pri...
I'll have to look up the model name/number, but there needs to be a titanium Casio.

There will be a lot of Casios, including the titanium one but in the Japanese qualification.
What a Timex party! To add one more, I like the look of the Timex Milano.
If you put in the Vaer S5, you might add the S3 for friends of modestly sized watches.

Thank you. Missed Milano. It's a certainly great watch. I was also reminded that there should be a Brazilian watch brand. And I will add white Vaer S3.

Thank you a lot. There are 2 models from Long Island Watches in the list. Will add Expedition North Solar and MK1 Mechanical. Expedition North Mechanical is slightly over the price limit.
Why are all of your games contestant watches extremely affordable? When do we start throwing luxury brands to the lions in the coliseum?
Maybe a titanium Bertucci? Looks like a a good list so far

Wow, I didn't know they are from the USA. That deceiving Italian naming. I will definitely add a couple of their models.

I guess that there are a lot of competitions like one at Fratello watches, the most iconic ones are talked too much. I think I can make a competition for under 2000. I don't know the market above that price well enough, because I don't see myself realistically buying one soon.
i might have a few possible contestants, the seiko srpe67 and orient mako ll
