We haven’t done a High Five in quite some time. My bad. To make it up, how about we do one on Deals and Steals? I know a lot of you are like me in that you love finding a good deal, so here are five things that I think rise to the top as EXCELLENT deals….even steals…. At the very least, a super high value proposition. Here we go:
Casio G-Shock GA 2100-1a1: A toned down version of the usually obtrusive G-Shock watch in a blackout color way for only $99? Yeah, sign me up.
Marsh Wear Fusion SL Fleece Vest: Vests have basically taken over, and in the normal economic lifecycle, that means that prices are going to go up. Enter Marsh Wear, who introduces an old-school camo version (which will ALWAYS get my attention). It’s nice to see a vest like this ring up at only $65.
Rapala Mag Spring Pliers: I require fishing pliers that have some sort of spring opening, and I simply refuse to spend a lot of money. I’m not a guide, so the idea of spending hundreds on fishing pliers doesn’t register with me. Enter Rapala, who is taking advantage of magnets…I ordered the 6″ pair (for $23) and am taking them out this weekend. I’ll report back.
Thomas Bates Largemouth Bass Belt: Yeah, for $13. Tell me that’s a bad idea.
Subscription to Garden & Gun: The past few issues have gotten me back on the Garden & Gun bandwagon. They finally got over the ‘Vogue of the South’ attitude they had for a while, and are really hitting on all cylinders. Time to get back on board.
Any other deals and/or steals you’d like to share?
Good list! I love a good deal. I just ordered a Casio G-Shock GWM5610 for like $70 just to leave on the nav table on the sailboat. I like that belt, and the pliers, too. Thanks for the ideas!
Fully agree about Garden and Gun. 2017-2018 issues are pretty unremarkable but 2019 seems to have turned it around.
Great list. I switched to the cheapest of cheap Casio to replace a Luminox that crapped out on me. I found the W217H-9AV for less than $15 new on ebay and it’s turning into my favorite watch because it is light, water resistant and has an alarm.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my two Omega’s but I’m always wearing the Casio.
Ashford is selling a swiss eta 2824-2 with sapphire crystal for $150 right now. The only problem is it’s branded by calvin klein. I’m in for 3. I plan on taking one to my watch guy to get the branding wiped off the dial, but want others to maybe mod out the face. https://slickdeals.net/f/13408096-calvin-klein-infinite-eta-2824-2-automatic-watch-149-free-s-h
