Suggestions for a good skeleton watch under $300?

[Vavrik]

I have to salute you @DirectorGunner, not necessarily for your watch tastes but that's just because I don't wear watches so I can't give any suggestions with a straight face. But for planning to do something about your future. Too many people don't, and life is more something that happens to them instead of something they live.

What about a nice Power Ranger watch? These babies are one of a kind!

Make a sundial, it'll last about 5 billion years and if the sun fails we're all dead from the supernova anyways.

@NaffNaffBobFace The LSAT is the test to see if you're smart enough to be an attorney... basically. It's a test designed purposely to make people fail. Each of the 5 sections is impossible to take your time and read/complete unless you are a speed reading/comprehending genius. And the questions are worded in a difficult way to provide the answer. It's not really a knowledge test, it's more of an aptitude test but on steroids. I did a practice test yesterday... it's a hard test man. And I normally ace all the standardized tests I've taken. Gonna be busting my ass studying for the next few months.

Aha, best of luck seems like you are on it already

Sounds like the kind of test to see if you can trick a trickster or at least identify when you are being tooled with

I haven't worn a watch in almost 20 years. Damn, I suddenly feel old. All this talk about & images of these skeleton watches makes me glad that I don't have 1 of them. Not because they don't seem awesome, but because I know that quite often I'd catch myself zoning out just watching the gears & mechanisms moving around inside. I'm an odd nut. LoL Happy hunting for your watch @DirectorGunner & best of luck on your LSAT test. I don't know you well, but based on what I've learned about you so far, I believe you'll do great.

@Mich Angel You're a bloody genius! I didn't think to google Skeleton pocket watches and use a pocket watch wrist band... bloody brilliant!
Big Dial, just missing diver's ring but.. yea... Imma Google-fu the shiznit out of that!

LOL.. Well genius might be a strong word :P ha ha ha... I figured you're like me and don't use a wrist watch, I been looking to get some classy pocket watch my self for a wile.
By pure luck and chance when looking for a nice one I found that arm wrist carry case for pocket watches, which I think is bloody brilliant if you for some reason want to have it on the arm some time.

CHEERS and good luck with the exam! ;)

I actually saw a skeleton like Ironman watch from a china brand a little bit ago...
hmmm.. maybe not power rangers...
But ... h
Optimus Prime or a Venom watch would be cool.
Oh man.. could you imagine a Venom symbiote skeleton watch?!
Where the inner workings look like a live symbiote twirling, twitching, spinning around.
mind blown

Ammon found a proper TEST watch I see! lol

Learned a little bit more from this guide about what the things are called that I'm looking for

I dive with this watch, I've owned a few momentum's over the years, they hold up well. It does have a bezel you can use to mark time.

Deep 6 Vision SE [47mm]

The dial design and huge “exploding date” ensure great legibility, while the carefully shaped black ion stainless steel case and offset crown allow the Deep 6 to offer unparalleled comfort in a 47mm size.The Deep 6 Vision SE features razor-sharp “shark tooth” styled markers and comes standard...

So is that a no to the hello kitty watch?

Perhaps it would be better if he called it Star Kitten, after the CIG modified version of said Hello Kitty?

• Can't be digital per LSAT rules.
• Can't have a dedicated stopwatch functionality
• Also, the LSAT watches fail often so won't use those.

GL with LSAT. Perhaps this is the watch you are looking for (please note it is on sale now that's why it is below your mark as I write it)

Why you didn't pay attention ? He clearly asked for skeleton watch !

 

[DirectorGunner]

This is what I bought

35 Minute mark and tiny tickers to help keep track. Isn't perfect... but.. eh.. for $150 will do.

I'd still say Bulova version was better, but let's look at it from different angle - yours should work as well, and you saved hundred bucks )

That's a cool looking one, congrats! I have a soft spot for carbon and tire treads lol

@Bruce I agree, I found a new appreciation for Bulova watches since I worked on the promo renders for their new Curve watches (see below). I've seen the CAD files of the insides, real nice stuff. Had the older black + gold variant as a reference for a week, and it's way better looking irl than in pictures. Wish I could've kept it as a bonus or something lol
