That Benrus watch looks better than the J. Crew Timex.

Also, another reason why that red chambray will sell well is because of the details like the indigo and grey versions. Most red chambrays I've seen have been overdesigned or just really plain or the color was too pink or too red or just too expensive. This shirt is the perfect mix of design, quality and affordability.Originally Posted by willy cheesesteak
Agreed that shirt look real nice. I hope it fits as nice as it looks.

who in their right mind would buy that J. Crew Timex when you could buy a timex on ebay for under $50 - maybe even one with some actual character? (hahah see the irony? I did it again - character on a timex - hahahah)Originally Posted by shasta
I like the design. The thing will last for a good 5 years or more, so the cost/time is really not that big of a deal.

Yes! This. Again, the price does seem a bit steep but the J. Crew is worlds better than the dimestore black watch. There's no way the black plastic Timex looks better--I own one and I think it's cheesy in comparison to the J. Crew.Originally Posted by Robert
FYI the j crew timex has the same quartz movement and plastic crystal as the dime store timex.

so if 30 timex lasts 5 years, then I guess you're a fool to pay 5x as muchOriginally Posted by shasta
Are you saying if a $30 Timex lasts 5 years, then I am a fool for paying 5x as much?
If that's translated correctly, then you are saying that every model of Timex is equivalent - which I guess is a fine opinion, just one I don't share.

So what? Every quartz movement is the same more or less. The crystal isn't plastic - you are mistaken.

Timax is just one of those brands... I don't know. I'm not a brand guy, that I have to have designer high-end ****, but Timax is just such a cheap name in watches.
Plus it's really not my look or style.
