Combat Watches
Good evening Marines,
I was wondering if any of you killers out there had any opinions on watches. I'm looking for something I can use on our upcoming deployment to the ghan. I looked on usstandardissue and saw those oakleys. Not sure what to think though. Thank you in advance.

Well, my DI recommended the cheap Timex Ironman watch in boot camp, and although I haven't deployed, it has lasted me for two and a half years already, still looks like new.

Casio G shock
I have owned 3 G-Shocks in 25 yrs including my 4 yrs. in the Corps, 6 yrs as a plumber and 15 yrs as a mechanic they have been beaten ,I even used to just take it off while in the Corps and throw it against a wall at 10 ft. away just to show others it's durability and my Dad wore that one until he bought a new one.Very durable mine has been everywhere from 3000 ft. in the air to 100 ft below the Pacific still working they need batteries about every 6 or 7 years .They have a good track record with me.Good Luck and Semper Fi

Those G-Shock watches look outstanding....but $150 for a damn watch? I think most Marines are looking for something functional, tactical, and cheap.

$38 from Amazon or you can usually get them on base. I got mine at MCRDSD when I graduated, I know they had them at Pendleton too at a couple places on base.
