Honestly neither she nor I have checked prices except for one. A friend said that the going price on the Daffy Duck watch that runs backwards was around $100+. The Pink one I bought for her. Had to pay an extra $100 just for the Pink tritium glow. We just get a kick out of the cartoons we can identify with from our youth. Newer ones are cool but not "funny paper" worthy. My watches I bought because I fell into some cheap purchases. A couple are so many functions that they are too much trouble to just get the time from them. Oh, there are a few that measure bio functions also. Funny thing is that when I wear them the pulse rate is exactly 1/2 of what mine really is. Just odd, but not interested why.

Jeez, it's probably 15 years old. It still works. Yeah! They are the cheapest watch I ever saw in every respect. But they keep good time. I'm pretty sure that every watch on that rack keeps time more accurately than a Rolex. But an executive at a large corporation probably doesn't want to be seen wearing a Betty Boop, or a Popeye watch.

janice6 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I forgot to note that with the exception of the Tritium Watch, I didn't pay over $10 for any on that rack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

railfancwb Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 This is the old power dam nearby, where I frequently take pictures. Today I got more than I bargained for - thankfully. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
