The Story Behind This Watch

Ah, Alphas. What can one say about them? Well, they’re inexpensive, for one. And they look like famous brands that cost a lot more. And you can get them in a variety of styles. Like this Explorer II look-a-like that I picked up. It’s only my second white dialed watch and it looks pretty good. It feels light, especially when compared to my Omega Seamaster. But, for $45 I’m not expecting a complete work of art. Just a good looking watch that (hopefully) keeps decent time.
