My First Oakley Watch

[oakleybadman]

Hollowpoint is tits. My favorite by far. Not a fan of any watch that has screws that hold back plate on. My mm got water in it and I swear its because of that. I may be wrong but atleast with the hp theres really no chance.

Love the 12 gauge design too but sold mine due to that damn crown digging into my wrist every time i bent my wrist. Very uncomfortable to wear all day especially if you wear on your left wrist.

MM is a hair heavier but you'd need a scale to notice. What's more noticeable is the distribution of weight; the MM is more evenly distributed around the wrist, like a big non-watch bracelet, while the HP is more weighty at the case, like traditional watches.

With three links removed from each, MM was 10g / 0.2oz heavier. Negligible.

Congratulations on your first watch. That is one of my favorites! Right next to the MM.

Picked up my first Oakley watch yesterday! It's an incredible work of art. The quality, fit and finish are much higher than I expected. Now to figure out what all these buttons do.

Congratulations on a great watch! My favorite so far. I have the orange one and it is my daily-wearer.

I'm the last person who should answer this question. I only have an Oakley watch, a Gearbox, because it was marked down to $200. That will never happen again.

I've only worn that and a Minute Machine. I definitely love the Hollow Point, but I can only admire it. I only seen pics of the Double Tap, I like what I saw.

I agree. I love my Oak watches, but would be hard to justify another one after getting a Raymond Weil Freelancer for a little bit more than what I paid for my Minute Machine. Oakley movements do not justify the cost by any stretch.
