The affordable alternative

85 members
This is a group for those like me, who enjoy horology at an entry level. There are so many awesome timepieces from great companies out there that could give us a similar experience to a luxury watch without being fake or counterfit. I know the term "affordable" could be very relative, so let's try to keep it cool. Only two rules: no fake watches and as usual zero snobbism. more

Casio watch haul. If you are like me and appreciate a good deal then stay on the look out for Casio watches being marked down at Walmart. The Duros are $13-$17 and everything else discounted below $20. All of them new with their stickers and in the boxes. I have two sons that are starting to appreciate watch collecting so several of these will be fun gifts ⌚️👍
