What is the Cheapest Watch Money Can Buy?
Reader question: What is the cheapest wristwatch?
What is the cheapest watch is a loaded question to ask a watch seller. You can probably find an old watch in a bulk bin at Goodwill for next to nothing. You can pick up a shoebox full of nasty watches and parts from a flea market, if one works with a fresh battery install then it likely cost pennies after averaging the cost. So, all of the…

Originally launched on Kickstarter, this limited edition piece gets its name from the Nera Gorges in Romania.
