No idea of the street price of this watch. IMO, if it's a full
stainless case and you like the style, $49 isn't a bad price. If it's
a "stainless back, base metal bezel" I'd more than likely pass.
Movement isn't particularly important in a quartz, they almost all work
fairly well, and only account for a few dollars of the watch cost.
