+geoguyver Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 I asked a while back about a watch style to use for a FTF prize in my first cache. I have finally gotten around to ordering the prize and wanted to share the proof I got back today from the company. I am liking it! My goal is to have the my first cache approved and hidden by the end of the month. Watch Proof Thanks for looking! Quote Link to comment
+quills Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Where will this cache be? That's a nice first finder prize. Quote Link to comment

+quills Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 You should move to NWPA and hide one. LOL Quote Link to comment
+Gizmo & Brazin Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 VERY nice! I hope you make it a hard cache to find, that's a prize worth really looking for! Quote Link to comment
+The Cache Raiders Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 Too bad i'm in BC Quote Link to comment
+Ltljon Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 That is neat! Groundspeak should look into those. Could we all afford one if they did? Quote Link to comment
+Cool Librarian Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 I have had quite a few FTFs, and I have yet to get a prize as cool as that! Maybe for my next tough hide, I will get something nice like that made. Can you give us any details on where you had that done? Quote Link to comment
+geoguyver Posted April 3, 2004 Author Share Posted April 3, 2004 Believe it or not, the watch was $19.99, including the artwork. By the time I added a case and shipping it was $30.00 total. Quote Link to comment
fuzzybear Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 cool prize I would like to have it. Quote Link to comment
+Shanediver Posted April 3, 2004 Share Posted April 3, 2004 WOW! That is quite a watch. Let me know when you are planning on stashing it. I need a vacation anyway. Quote Link to comment
+geoguyver Posted April 14, 2004 Author Share Posted April 14, 2004 It came in the mail today! I am pretty pleased with it. I am hoping to place the cache on Thursday with an approval by sometime this weekend, but we'll see. Here is the picture of the final watch: Finished Watch Quote Link to comment
+Amazingracer Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Dang it your in MN! Come hide a cache here in GA with one of those things in it! Quote Link to comment
blocko1000 Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Where did you order this watch from and did you have to order more than one in order to get that price? Quote Link to comment
+JeepCachr Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Now thats a signature item! Have you thought about putting one in every cache you find? Quote Link to comment
+Geo Ho Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 I'll take one please. Can you e-mail me the cache? I'll log as FTF, I'll make a trade and send it back. A very cool FTF prize! Happy caching and stuff! Quote Link to comment
+PandyBat Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 Very nice FTF prize! Wish I had the cash to do a cache like you've done with the cash for your cache. Quote Link to comment

+Red Clover Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Boy does that make my sig item look cheesy as hell. GREAT FTF prize. I agree w/ racer.. plant one in GA Quote Link to comment
+Team Flying Dachshund Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Where did u buy the watch from? Quote Link to comment
+Cache Viking Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 Southeast MN. Great FTF item. To bad you are so far away. I would have made an effort to find that one. Quote Link to comment
+geoguyver Posted April 17, 2004 Author Share Posted April 17, 2004 Where did u buy the watch from? From here: http://www.americanlogowatch.com/ Good price on a lot of watches. I probably won't do that too often though. Quote Link to comment
Major Catastrophe Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I'm not impressed. Of course, if you were to fly to western Oregon and place a cache with one of those in it, then I would be impressed. That is a very cool FF prize, makes me wish I had the wherewithall to make a trip to MN just for a chance at it... Quote Link to comment

AZcachemeister Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 Hey Geoguyver! WOW! That is a very desirable FTF prize! I have converted almost all my watches to 'belt-loop-mode' as it's much more convienient that way. Going to check the link to your supplier now! BTW, that is a very impressive codpiece, you must be very proud! How many cod can you keep in there, anyways? Quote Link to comment
+Kitch Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I knew I should have been reading the "all" the threads...grrrrr..... I would have called "sick" to work.... Quote Link to comment
Mushtang Posted April 19, 2004 Share Posted April 19, 2004 I had a few fairly nice license plates made, and I used one for a FTF prize in my Puzzle Of The Century cache. If I can find a different place to get them produced for a little cheaper I'll use them for signature trade items. Here's a picture of mine on the front of my Mustang: I have one more that I'm saving for the front bumper of a Jeep I hope to get someday soon. Quote Link to comment
