Cheap watch for surf fishing

[luds]

Ironman or G-shock. I can't believe G-shocks are that cheap now. I remember when they were quite the fashion accessory.

I have worn the Ironman for years, fallen, scraped it everything and nothing stopped it. I had to replace the velcro band because it stretched out but otherwise it does what it says - takes a lickin' and keeps tickin'

look around for some of the cooler colors and limited edition ones, the price goes way up.

If you need strap that will hold up, go with something like a nato or a dive strap. I am not a fan of velcro especially if you get sand in it. Just do a search and you can find them cheap.

I agree with using something like a seal watch to fish with rather than a plastic beater. I consider my watches as tools and they should be used for what they were intended. I wear a Tissot T-Touch that I've had for years that has temperature, compass, and barometric pressure functions. As long as it has a saphire crystal, I would not worry about scratching the crystal. The case on the other hand will get scratched.

how about this?
