Ten Dollar Tuesday: Gediyar "Spider" Men's Quartz Analog Watch

Sometimes Chinese companies make a cool looking watch, but seem to have no idea how to name it.  For this ten dollar Tuesday, I submit to you the Gediyar "Men Quartz Analog Watch Luxury Military Business Fashion Casual Calendar Male Man Waterproof Wrist Watches for Men." I'll nickname this one the "Spider" due to it's cool dial design. It's an interesting design that can be had in three different color schemes all of which are less than $10.

This watch has a very interesting design with symmetrical legs extending from a central hub, an exposed date track, and a window offering a peek into the quartz movement. It's a 45mm watch that's 11mm thick.  It has a silicone strap of generous length that should be able to fit wrists up to 10 inches in circumference. The watch is water resistant for daily wear and looks awfully good for just $10.  If you are interested in this watch, check it out further here on Amazon via my affiliate link.

Just remember, this is a $10 watch. You may encounter some of the issues that I've outlined in my post on the drawbacks of cheap watches.  Most of my cheap watches have turned out to be pretty decent, but you might find that the silicone straps are a bit thin or you might encounter short battery life. I didn't see any mention of this watch having a stainless steel case or caseback. You might get a rash or you might get a cool watch.  It can be a role of the dice.

The biggest danger posed by this watch is that it just might spark a question.  That question would be:

If I can get a watch this nice for just $10, how much are the bigger watch brands actually paying for their Asian-manufactured watches?

This one is a bit of a challenge to my buying sensibilities because the large numerals on the dial 02, 03, 04 are an obvious homage to Diesel watches that aren't that old. I actually do want to get a classic Diesel watch with those iconic big numbers someday.

Ten Dollar Tuesday Watch: EAJOMIN Gediyar G713 Sport Watch

 As we deal with a challenging economy, it can be fun to grab a good looking watch from time to time. This EAJOMIN Gediyar G713 watch recently caught my eye. I'm just a sucker for silver-on-silver watch case and dial combinations. This watch regularly sells for less than $10 and is currently 11% off on top of that to make for a low, low, price. It's a pretty tempting price.

The watch is 43mm in diameter and 9.5mm thick. It comes with a long silicone strap that is 25 centimeters long. That allows this watch to accommodate wrist diameter of up to 9.85-inches. The watch is advertised as waterproof for daily life. (I take that to mean a few splashes or light rain capable.)

The main drawback that I see to this timepiece include the unknown metal quality. There is a review that indicate the wearer got a rash from the clasp to this watch. I'll have to add this drawback to my TGIF post on The Drawbacks of Cheap Watches.

Still, it's a great look, a great size, and an incredibly low price. If you want to test your resistance to temptation, check this EAJOMIN Gediyar watch out here via my affiliate link.
