    I got the one for $ 197. I like the screw down crown. In the past i have had some crowns pull pull out and the time stops and I am late.
    Tracer is usually on the pricey side. This deal was to good to pass.

    Great deal on those Tracers guys!

    I know what you mean about the date change, I have a Timex chrono, Precista chrono and my Citizen Nighthawk all have that feature. Confused the heck out of me first time I saw it with my Timex.

    Cheers,
    Griff

    Yeah I have a Marc Ecko chrono that does the same thing. At first I thought it was just cheapness (like how Vostoks don't have quick-set date) until I went through the little booklet and it mentioned the time zone thing.

    @ nam6869usmc & steve12345, make sure you post pics and your opinions of the watch. I have a Luminox Special Ops on the way but I have been looking at the Traser line of watches as well. I seem to be hooked on tritium and I would really like to know what you think of them.
    @ SquishyPanda I have seen your screen name several times and I still laugh when I see it.

    Cool,
    I would also like to know how accurate they are with the measurements of the diameter. It is indicated that the watch has a 46mm diameter, many sellers have no idea how to properly measure the diameter of a watch. I do it from the 2:00 to the 8:00 position without pushers, crowns, crown guards etc.

    I hope mine gets here before I leave on Vacation this wednesday. If not I will write it up when I return. I was going to get another Smith & Wesson but the Lume stunk and I know they are or have gone to the same tubes as Tracer/Luminox but want to be sure. I also suggest getting a screw down crown so that the crown does not accidently pull out. It seems that most of these watches have mineral crystal and This closeout deal has a Saphire Crystal (less chance of scratching but could shatter).
