Not negotiable. 
I passed. 
Fast forward a few years, and I was overjoyed to see this one show up in a joblot for ~ $4.
Made me Inner Scotsman dance a li'l jig, it did. 
ENNYway, here 'tis:
As a matter of scale, that's the Ricky Standard Combat NATO, 22mm. This a big watch!
I mean, like Huuuge! So, imagine my surprise when I put the calipers on it and found it to be "only" 45mm. 
I've got several bigger'n that. 'tis the 'all dial' design that makes it wear so big, natch.Now, I was really itchin' to "get under the hood" of this one, and figured it had a PC21. But.. Hmmmm. No "Japan Movt" on the dial, ye note, just "Hong Kong". So perhaps it shouldn't have been a big surprise when I finally laid eyes on the movement and saw:
ONE (1) JEWEL UNADJUSTED REMEX ELECTRONICS LTD.
FRENCH PARTS
HONG KONG
HP6626
The last bit is on the battery clasp, and might be the batt no.
Still. What a unique (to me so far) movement.
I dun good fer me hard-earned lunch money here, Bubba! 
-Ricky
P.s. - And, yeah, I still reckon $89.95 was a ripoff.

For 4 bucks, it is certainly a good watch. Except that the crown >>>
Boss! 
And to show that Great Minds Really Do Think Alike..
