Too Much Time on My Hands

[cwhenke]

I used to have multiple watches and matched them to my clothes, but I now only wear a silver-colored Bulova. It was a gift from my wife, and it works with everything.

Is that your skin behind the Rolex?

Cell phone... Most of the time.

I have a couple of cheap Timex Ironmans that I use when needed.

I've looked at a Rolex but whenever I have the bank for one - I've end up with a new Gun, Guitar or a Motorcycle!

Cell phone now. In Arizona, if you wear a watch, the constant sweat during the summers will build up and smell really bad.

Omega Seamaster or Hamilton Khaki Classic for every day

Concord with lizard strap or Hamilton Jazzmaster for more dressier situations

Just the cell phone for me

I don't have a good picture of mine handy but this is basically what I wear everyday. Love it.

Nice Styx reference in the thread title, Hans. Now i have an earworm.

I cant live (comfortably) without one at work but dont wear one on the weekends. I have a 20-year-old Pulsar that my wife gave me and a Citizen that i earned for 10 years of service. Nothing fancy but functional. My wife keeps threatening to buy me a new watch and when she tells me what she wants to spend i redirect her to http://www.prsguitars.com/products/index.php :laugh:

My primary time piece...an engagement present from my wife...It's been on my wrist every day since...it's seen everything and keeps on ticking! Fantastic watch...that scratch happened the day my first son was born...serves as a constant reminder of the important things in life.

I'm glad it didn't go missing for more than a few minutes. Even nicer knowing its story.

I don't always wear watches, but when I do I prefer Movado.

I use my iPhone, and/or computer,,,etc. (iPad). Can't wear a watch, not the least reason being I tend to stop them, or it would seem. Doesn't matter if it's electric or gear. They stop. Don't like things on my hands(rings) or wrist.

Nice! Necro bumping your own thread….I dig it, and approve wholeheartedly.

Did I see Gibson or Fender were selling a line of watches now? The faces were made from tone wood scraps.

Edit: It was Taylor making them.

I wear a G-Shock Master of G (Mudman or something) when I'm in the water (which is far too infrequently, really). I wear a Galaxy Classic 4 when I'm out of the house. As a so-called "smartwatch" -- a misnomer if there ever was one -- I prefer it because it looks like a watch.

I generally go for platinum or silver-ish or black. That color works better for me -- and matches our wedding rings.

He beat the statute of limitations by exactly one month! Nice!

(Dig the watch!).

I’m a big fan of the diver style watches. For some reason I can’t seem to get one to last more than 2 years, I’m really hard on them. I’ve tried everything, both cheap and expensive. That was until I tried an Invicta Subaqua divers watch. They weigh a pound and are built like a tank. But normally I’m a fan of the Ulysses Nardin diver watches.

Wow, someone almost as hairy as me!

The last watch i bought lies at the floor of Trieste Bay in Italy, right where it fell after being ripped from my wrist as I climbed the gangway to my first Ship in 1987.

I was hoping for a ten year necro, and still very nice watch!!! I can't wear watches any more and I am sad.
