A Big Boxy Watch from a Big Box Store

A Mossimo Alternative to a Bell & Ross Watch

I know, I know, I'm supposed to want the finest of Swiss Watches.  I do want them.  But, I can't afford them right now.  So, it's much easier to succumb to the allure of the watch shelves in big box stores like Walmart and Target.  Watches in the $10 to $20 range are often interesting and innovatively styled. My favorite watches from the Big Box stores often evoke the style of far pricier watches from high end jewelers.  For example, this big boxy Mossimo watch from Target looks much like a far more expensive Bell & Ross.  

Mossimo Ana-Digital Instrument Watch

Of course, if you have the money for a Bell & Ross Watch, don't let me slow you down.  As of this July 2025 update, here's one of the latest B&R ceramic models on Amazon. 

[As I look back on this watch from the vantage point of 2025, I loved the shape of this watch. But, there are a few things I didn't like about this Mossimo watch. One, it had a strangely integrated bracelet that couldn't be easily swapped out. The other is that anything digital might have a beep or an alarm go off at weird times. It was still fun to own since I never did get a real Bell & Ross watch.]
