Ten Dollar Tuesday: Avaner Skull Watch and Bracelet

It's Ten Dollar Tuesday and it's October.  If the prospect of an inexpensive Chinese watch isn't scary enough, let's get a spooky one! This Avaner Men's Quartz Skull watch with bracelet might fit the bill perfectly. It has Japanese quartz movement, a 46mm diameter case, a generously-sized leather strap, and comes with an accompanying bracelet with a skull charm.

For an October / Halloween watch, $10 is a great deal. The main drawback to me is that the skeletonized hands may be a little difficult to reach.  But, truthfully, this watch is all about the skull. I suspect timekeeping is a secondary consideration. If you are interested in scaring up this timepiece, please feel free to use my Amazon affiliate link here.  

I've had plenty of skull watches in my collection over the years. Some have had brand names like Ed Hardy attached. They always look cool. But, my Ed Hardy has condensation under the crystal and I'm pretty sure it cost about $20. If you're looking for a laughing skull this Halloween, you might not be taking too much of a risk. Just know that it is just a fun watch and not heirloom.

Do you hear it?  Do you hear the galloping hooves?  Perhaps it is the autumnal winds and the blowing leaves?  But, may be it is headless horseman pursuing us with a warning that Halloween is approaching fast!

Every tick and every tock, brings us closer to that time on the clock with the barrier between the living and the dead is very thin indeed!  We've recently had a few spooky encounters of the horological kind.  For example, here is an evil jack-o-lantern that asked me for the time.  While my own pulse nearly stopped, I was wearing my Pulsar dive-style watch.

I found that all of the undead were most excited about this dive-style timepiece.  It had plenty of bracelet for the local skeletons.  If you hear a clink-clink-clink in the evening, it may be a skeleton wearing my watch!
