Bad, Bad, Balboa Biker Watches

With the Fourth of July right around the corner, freedom is in the forefront of everyone's mind.  To many people, nothing epitomizes freedom more than the motorcycle and the open road.

Of course, if you are going to be a motorcyclist, you have to have the entire bad-ass ensemble to go with your ride.  You've got to have the leathers, the boots, and a biker watch.  I found these Balboa brand biker watches online.



This one has a crossed-bones motif and German-inspired cross.  The one below has a hot biker chick.  I thought she was only on big truck mud flaps, but apparently she gets around.



Finally, we get the good old-fashioned skull and crossbones on a background of fire.  In the world of biker watches, it is a conservative choice!
