Having a good quality time piece on your wrist doesn’t have to mean taking out a second mortgage on your condo, or even spending time in a department store. The updated version of the Fossil Decker Chronograph has everything you need in one place – for less than a benjamin. It’s water resistant to 5 ATM. The case clocks in at 13mm thick and is 45mm wide. The most important parts of the watch are really everything else. No faux leather strap. This one is held one with a black, gray and red nylon number reminiscent of the NATO straps that are all the rage these days. The face is black with red accents and covered with more gauges than you will ever use. At the end of the day, it’s a good looking watch that probably costs less than the last pair of jeans you bought.
