Old SchoolThe protagonist of Tobias Wolff's shrewdly and at times devastatingly observed first novel is a boy at an elite prep school in 1960. He is an outsider who has learned to mimic the negligent manner of his more privileged classmates. Like many of them, he wants more than anything on earth to become a writer. But to do that he must first learn to tell the truth about himself. The agency of revelation is the school literary contest, whose winner will be

The protagonist of Tobias Wolff's shrewdly--and at times devastatingly--observed first novel is a boy at an elite prep school in 1960. He is an outsider who has learned to mimic the negligent manner of his more privileged classmates. Like many of them, he wants more than anything on earth to become a writer. But to do that he must first learn to tell the truth about himself.

The agency of revelation is the school literary contest, whose winner will be awarded an audience with the most legendary writer of his time. As the fever of competition infects the boy and his classmates, fraying alliances, exposing weaknesses, Old School explores the ensuing deceptions and betrayals with an unblinking eye and a bottomless store of empathy. The result is further evidence that Wolff is an authentic American master.

Fly back / duel time zone / under 200 bucks!!!!!
Color: Stainless Steel, Color: Stainless Steel
Incredible people don’t realize Timex is American history. It’s heavy and it’s a flyback chronograph with a dual time., that’s an expensive complication on any other watch. This would be thousands , it’s almost like a fidget toy lol , you have six hands that are working you can dual time on the chronograph as it flies back and have dual time zones for the money. It’s a no-brainer.

Like the best military items: does exactly what it's used for:
Color: Black
Even better than the infantry watch I used in the USAF 50 years ago. It has 12/24 hour time and day/date; other models have additional features. It's rugged and easy to read - a real watch face, NOT digital ! ... AND inexpensive too. BTW it has a real watch band made to be used in the elements (e.g. weather, work).

Infantry 5ATM Waterproof Mens Military Tactical Field Watch, Date & Day 12/24Hr-
Color: Silver
So I almost never write reviews- anywhere. This is an exception & I'm not paid or reimbursed- just impressed. This watch presents a really good price to value ratio. My infantry watch looks great and is very functional. I put a NATO strap on it because I tend to be tough with watches, though the one it arrived with is very nice looking and the buckle is even logo'd- a really nice touch in this price segment. I've received several positive compliments while wearing it and 1 of my friends has purchased an Infantry field watch from this same series since. The company behind the watch is part of the value equation. I had a minor issue and I was able to get in touch with a real person... no, actually two! I contacted via Amazon AND through the support dept from their website. Both inquiries were promptly answered with a helpful and well-mannered reply and the perfect solution. There are several collections to be found on their website (SEARCH: Infantry Watches ). These watches range in appointment and quality from levels found here to several steps above. Similar in looks and nature to this one on Amazon include; The Chronomaster, The Skeleton, and The Auto-Pilot to name a few. I've begun to add additional watches to my collection from those. There are also fun and informal collaborations offered. Right now [8-2025] these include; Transformers, Monopoly, Peanuts and several others. ---> Overall it's rare and refreshing to find a company still able to work decent products AND ethics into a successful business model!
