MIB watches?

[IMGONNABE40!]

I recently watched the Men in Black DVD and really like the triangular faced watch that Will Smith wore. Does anyone know if they are available for sale at the MIB gift shop or anywhere else? Thanks.

I haven't seen it at the MIB gift shop. I thought I might have seen one like it at the Fossil store though in Citywalk.

Thanks for that suggestion. I will look there.

I remember when the MIB movie first came out, there was a special promotion for those watches. I think they cost like $300 or so. I don't know why people spend so much for something that just tells time, though. Personally, I'd go to Wal-Mart and buy a watch for $20. Even the cheap ones tell time accurately!

Thanks for that suggestion. I will look there.

I'll try to remember to look at the MIB store and Fossil when I go tomorrow. I doubt they'll be $300 anymore.

And Bill, sure all watches tell time just as most clothes cover your body, but we humans usually buy what we think looks good.

Thanks, Phamton.

Thanks for the link, Damo. I was hoping to get one for DS while DH and I are at UO next week. I guess I am hoping for a cheap knock off. Those watches are about 10x what I was hoping to spend! They are really nice, however.

They are expensive because they're actual Hamilton Electrics - the "triangle" shape is one of their classic designs, and so they created a special MiB version when the film came out. Perfect choice, too, as it dovetails with the rest of the deco/ultra-modern look of the movie. I am surprised, however, that cheap, non-Hamilton versions are not available at the park ...

I looked at Fossil, the MIB store, and that store between Jaws and Fear Factor that sells only expensive sunglasses and watches (can't remember the name of it.) None of them had even a similar watch. Sorry.

Thank you for checking, Phamton. That was very nice of you.
