What time is it? Introducing The Watch Dude Blog

It's time for a new blog about wristwatches.  For years, articles about wristwatches have focused on expensive and unusual mechanical watches that cost lots of money.  But, this blog will mostly focus on men's wristwatches that we can all afford.  It'll focus on the watches that I own from companies that we all know - brands like Casio, Timex, Relic, Bulova, and Seiko.  You'll get to read about funky little $15 watches from Target and Walmart.  Of course, if a Rolex drops from the sky, I'll write about it.

The day it starts raining Rolexes!

These days, my favorite watch is pretty simple.  It's a simple Casio TeleMemo 30 World Time Ana-Digital Watch.  It cost about $30.  But, it is amazing.  You can read a complete review here - Casio TeleMemo 30 World Time Ana-Digital Watch.
