What do you all think of MTM watches? Worth dropping a grand on one?

I've never heard of them, I looked briefly and personally no I wouldn't. But I like mechanical watches. I have a digital watch for running, don't really need something "rugged". Though many mechanical watches are built to be "tool" watches and can handle abuse.
The "Black Silencer" I looked at only has 330' of water resistance. My $190 Seiko has 200M. And it doesn't need a new battery every few months, etc.
Seems like a lot for what a decent Gshock could get you at a quarter (or less) of the price. Just my opinion.

If you want a rugged watch it's hard to beat the low end $40-Ish G-Shock. It will take more abuse than your wrist will and if it gets too beat up it's easily replaced.
I have an SKX 007 that the previous owner said he used on two tours in Afghanistan. It's none the worse for wear. A few scratches but still keeps good time and looks presentable.

I like the looks of the MTM watches, but I think they are overpriced. For a lot less you can get a Marathon or Deep Blue.

Great point, I'm not a big fan of deep blue as I find them a little boring I guess you could say? But their reliability and quality is highly spoken for.
I'd recommend anyone interested in watches to branch out to the WatchUseek forum (also on Tapatalk).

I have 2 Deep Blues. One is the one of the original Tritium tubes. Both are built like tanks and keep great time. I wear the tritium alot on the weekends.
The tritium lume is the the bomb. I get a lot of comments on it a night time Scout functions.
Excellent watch. Valjoux 7750 is an excellent movement too. I have an old Movado chrono with that movement. A cut above most of the more common Swiss auto chronos.
I have two Deep Blue autos (not chronos) with higher end Citizen 9015 movements. Both accurate to about 2 seconds a day. That's impressive for an auto.
