I stumbled upon this by accident and immediately didn't like it. However the more I look at it the more it's growing on me.
Anyone got one? What do you think? How is the textured dial in real life? Does it wear large?
Cheers,
David

Cheers Vinny, far too big for me I'm afraid.
I never understand why they mess with a classic state with things like odd textures and splashes of colour which surely limit the versatility of the watch. Still, it would be a boring world if we only stuck to the classic designs I guess...
Seems very reasonable - I think it's a bit big for me, too, but am sure it'll be a well-received xmas gift by many. thanks for the info.
That does look good, but dont think I would be able to live with the strap- anyone know the lug width? On a smart bracelet that would make for a great sub £100 beater!
I almost got one of these - but somehow it didn't impress me as much in the flesh as it did on the pictures. Shame because I wanted to like it. It does look a bit cheap in reality.
They also have it on a stainless steel bracelet. (The yellow bits are painted pale blue on these)
Thanks for the info,
may give one a try for that money.
Looks quite nice but, i wish they hadn't discontinued the classic military chrono.........:(
Looks amazing for the money tbh
Its always worth trawling the Argos site and their Outlet site on eBay.
They have this > http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pulsar-Men...item4d20de9903
And this >>>> http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Accurist-M...item540ce6b384

Recently they also disposed of Hanowa Swiss Military quartz watches at around £25 each - most of them are now back on eBay through private sellers at £50-£80!
*The Pulsar that was the subject of this thread has normally been at £49.99 and was briefly offered at £10 extra on a non-sale period.
The other one to watch for is the Rotary "Breitling homage" which can be priced at anything from £100 down to £49.99 if you choose the right day.
The Citizen "Blue dial Eco-drive divers chrono" is also currently half price at £100 http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/2262822.htm
Some bargains to be had
I prefer the smaller, more classic looking Pulsar

The original military version had shockingly poor like, hopefully this version will be better.
Spotted this whilst browsing Amazon for the Pulsars.....

I really like the dial design.
That is almost perfect but for the green numerals - are they that green in real life? Also the hands look slightly undersized?
I thought for the price I'd give this a go. Actually pleasantly surprised! It's a well thought out quality timepiece! Took a snap with my Seiko SNDA57
