watch company started by redditors. overpriced as fuck on the site, just sign up for their newsletter and wait 2 days. boom 30-50 dollars for their "best" watches. You really get what you pay for, but they're not bad. Had one as a daily wear for almost a year, only two scratches on the crystal. all quartz movements.
if you want an automatic, the seiko 5 series is the cheapest you can get. I've not gotten one yet, but I hear good things about them. for a cheap beginner's piece, they're the best you can get. cheapest is $50, goes up from there. Search amazon for seiko 5.

[QUOTE=FullStreak12;43916045]How's Comcast with their internet service? I have TWC but that might change because of that deal.[/QUOTE]
mostly bad but honestly depends. Their uptime is fairly decent but you'll probably get dicked on speeds and probably some throttling. If you torrent, you'll want to stick to private trackers since they do follow the six strikes thing. their support is a pain in the ass also, but honestly theres no "good" isp besides GF
FUCKING SHIT I HIT 3K WITHOUT NOTICING
Honestly if the merger of Comcast and TWC even goes through (which I'm not sure it will) it's not going to change a thing. You're still going to get the same service for the (seemingly ever increasing) same price. The merger isn't going to stifle any competition because there was literally zero competition between the two to begin with, Comcast will now just be shafting a few million more people then they were before.

Hold on, how many percent off? I don't think its clear.
I'd love a Pebble Steel, but I'm poor as fuck.
That Seiko looks alright, but I'm kind of concerned about getting a mechanical watch (even if it's automatic) because I don't want to have to service it or get it calibrated/timed for more than the watch is worth...

This thing looks kind of nice and hassle-free, but you know, it's a Casio :v:
If I DID go mechanical, I keep reading good things about these

yeah, old russian vostoks are dive watches that are really really sturdy and durable. They were a pretty unique type of waterproofing too.
plus if you get this one, you can refer to it as the scuba dude

I'd love one of the Amphibian/dive Vostoks but they're pricey.
Though I do like the bezel on them for one single reason...

Yeah, more games need to do that kind of stuff.
I like it if only because it shows that the developers are willing to be creative.
Now if only what HUD there was wasn't necessary.

You've obviously never played ranger mode then.
No, I'm far too much of a pussy. I never even finished it, I got stuck on those thrice-damned amoebas.

My girlfriend just got me a pocketwatch for valentines day. Ive never really been a huge watch guy (Ive got a pretty shiny one I wear sometimes), but damn if this thing isnt awesome. Both sides flip open and you can see all the gears and stuff.

My watch is a Motorola Motoactv rooted with Cleardroid.

But before that I had a Casio Edata 350 calculator watch, which was pretty handy.
