Glovebox watch
By Dave Kowalski, Chicago ยท
Every guy needs one of these rolling around in the truck. Lorus is Seiko's budget brand, and this one's $70 to $100, quartz chronograph with a VD57 movement, 42 by 11 mm, 100 m, steel bracelet, date. Mineral crystal.
It's a beater. That's the whole point. Mine would live in the glovebox for when I forget my real watch or I'm doing something stupid like demo work. The chrono's handy for timing a cure or a parking meter.
Don't expect anything from the finishing, and the mineral crystal will scratch. But for under a hundred bucks it'll outlast your truck.
