Quality Watches

I recently bought an Aeromatic 1912 "Classic Calendarium" automatic watch from eBay.com Can not comment on its quality since I have not received it yet. I will, however, tell you that the best watch for the money is still a Seiko Model 5 automatic watch. Many styles in both men and women's models are available on-line from overstock.com, bidz.com, or eBay.com
I am wearing a Seiko 5 Sports model with "Lumibrite" dial right now. It keeps near perfect time and is very stylish too. Invicta is another brand that has good automatic watches available at these same sites, although I do not own one myself. Prices range from $50.00 US to $200.00 US with shipping varying from $3.95 to $15.00 US. I am a bit prejudiced about automatic watches since the Seiko 5 that I gave to my father in 1970 is still working perfectly (with only maintenance being a new bracelet and crystal). I hope this information is of use. If you need more help, e-mail me directly: jimparadisjr@hotmail.com
