Re: specialops watches, by MTM
you want a real hard use watch get a gshock or a suunto xlander military. the gshocks are THE best watch to beat the living shit out of. the suunto is awesome if you use all the extras, i've jumped with that thing the altimiter is one of the few that updates fast enough to use that way.

"MTM Pro Ops is privately owned by a Mr. Joe Casas. They are located at 1225 South Grand Ave Los Angeles CA 90015 tel# 213-741-0808. MTM has 5 employees and a total sales of $5 million per year. They get their watches from another company owned by Mr. Casas. That company is American Watch Co. It is listed as a watch importer. Total sales are approximately $2-$3 million with 10 employees. By the way American Watch Co. is at the same address!
Being so small may be part of the reason they do not support their warranty. Especially, if they are importing the watches from China."

Bad QA/QC, questionable durability, bad customer service.

I have had a Casio pathfinder for 3 years and worn it everyday, They may not be flash but they are just great watches.

Having owned Omegas, Rolex, etc...I like my Casio Pathfinder the best and wear it daily. I guess I like less bling and more functional durability.

Panerai watches are cool but obsolete and overpriced for the movement. That company was ruined when taken over by Richemont.
$4,000 for a watch with a pocket watch movement and no screw-down crown. I would think there are other watches that meet his needs better. JMO.
