    Pretty pricey at $217 IMO. I do like how close it is to the original design though.

      It could have easily been under $100, but they got to make the most of their brand cache and nostalgia.

      Yikes! This is a $50 watch at best.

      Thankfully it doesn’t cost nearly as much as a Rolex or even many smartwatches.
