Watch Daily Deal: Swiss Military 06-5041-04-003 - Joma Deals

http://www.jomadeals.com: Swiss Military Railroad Mens Watch 06-5041-04-003. A beautiful watch from the best watchmakers in the world. This deal of the day is $129 (67% off the $395 retail price). Sale ends at midnight tonight (EST). September 11, 2009.

This watch harkens back to a time when the nation was first being mapped out, way before Google maps made every other map and method obsolete (next project for Google? Destroy all information it can’t index); A time when the west was wild and man was just beginning to gain access to it through the transportation marvel of the railroad, stretching into all lands and territories, reaching its climax at Promontory Summit in Utah where the east and west finally converged (and afterward they all got together to go skiing, sip hot chocolate, and enjoy The Mormon Tabernacle Choir). But I assume Swiss Military called this particular watch the railroad because the strap sorta looks like one and it’s made of steel, and not because you’re not supposed to play on it because you could get your foot stuck and get run over by a train, or because if you’re evil you can tie a damsel in distress to it hoping she’ll get run over but get foiled at the last minute by a dashing soldier on a horse. And probably not because when it’s right next to my house and a train goes across it, it makes a lot of noise and annoys the hell outta me at two in the morning and wakes me up from a wonderful dream involving Megan Fox, Clint Eastwood, and an army of jet pack fighters (best dream ever, BTW).

So even though it’s not literally made of railroad track Rockefeller steel, it is made of stainless steel, and is designed with an attractive blue dial, chronograph and Tachymeter functions, and the unmatched superiority of Swiss Quartz movement. Swiss Army makes the best watches in the world, hands down, and has been doing it for longer than anybody. So just like the golden stake that connected the eastern and western worlds, this watch is a one of a kind symbol of innovation, quality, and progress. And should this watch run out of steam and fly off the tracks (so to speak. It won’t LITERALLY do either of those things, but you get the point), then the JomaDeals 2-year warranty will make sure it gets fixed and back on track (not my worst pun ever, and it’s related to railroads, so I’ll keep it in).

P.S. If you haven’t noticed already, we’ve stopped putting video links in the text. My boss told me to cut them out. Miss ‘em? Write us and let us know, and maybe we’ll start doing them again. Otherwise, we’ll assume nobody cares and we’ll go back to sulking at our desk in the corner, wondering why our work isn’t more appreciated (*sigh, the lonely frustration of white-collar America).
