Yeap, what watch do you currently own? Watches are very very popular, and will always be. They are very stylish(1) and useful(2). ~:)
I own a Tissot T-Race "Nicky Hayden".

I own a Tissot T-Race "Nicky Hayden".
A blue and silver fossil. I have it on right now. It's not cheap, nor very expensive. I think around $50 or 60 USD.
A Swiss Army Ground Forces Chronograph Watch.
A Low End, of the Higher Priced Watches, (about 570$). I could just never buy something like a Rolex.
Those are pretty neat, if not a bit overpriced.

Watches are not overpriced , unless they are rubbish or fakes , or unless you think a short days wages is a good monthly salary ~;)
Usually, I don't wear them, I don't like time 'getting all up in my...'. I've got a movado, god knows what silly italian sounding name they gave it; my pocket watch, it's also my cell phone; and, a $15 timex that I had to buy for chemistry.:balloon2:

Being Swiss (inventors of time), I have a Bucherer Limited Edition Titanium Watch. Unsure about the price (quite dear) as it was a gift.
It had to be titanium because anything else I will just break...

I have a Macdonalds happy meal watch from like 8 years ago - amazingly it still works, its a shame its bright yellow with a picture of a clown on the front :oops:
A Luminox Navy Seals watch. Takes a beating, is water-proof, and the dial/hands glow so brightly in the dark I will probably have a huge melanoma patch on my wrist 5 years from now. :laugh4:
none... :-|
Red Timex Ironman.
For $20 it tells you the date, time; can function in both 12 and 24-hour time, can light up, and waterproof to 100m.
All about practicality. :toff:
I have a $50 (? christmas present) timex. It still works (except sound) 6 years later while my sister went through 2 or 3 of the $20 ones. Haven't worn it for years though, I don't see the point in watches.
As Hector was a breaker of horses, so I am a breaker of watches, therefore mine's one of those rugged Casio G-Shock things. Serviceable for snorkelling and diving as well.
I use my iPod mainly.
Once I was cleaning out my room, and needed a watch. I found one I had recieved four or five years ago from Nintendo, free. To my suprise, it was only thirteen minutes off.
That's insanely good quality for something I got free with a subscription.
Not the foggiest, just a 120 quid Tissot. Got it a few years ago, one battery change, still works fine. Hardly ever take it off - feel naked without a watch on. Does the job - time and day of month... Anything else is unnecessary in a watch - like a mobile that has MP3s.
I had a Rolex once. The Explorer model. Simple face watch with no fancy stuff. Cost me a cool $1000. It was gorgeous and I loved it.
Then I lost it to a pawn shop on a $400 loan when I was dirt poor. Stupid? Oh yeah. :yes:
Just two weeks ago I got back my Swiss Amry watch that I had left at a client's house for two years. Nice watch, paid $70 brand new and it was worth $250. The store had a box full and just wanted them gone.
I still miss my Rolex... :embarassed:
I have a watch, it's brand is simply Camel Trophy.
dont use watches
Not owned a watch for over 25 years now. Funny thing is, like a TV -- I DON'T MISS IT!! Though I must admit in the last couple of years I've had a mobile which doubles up as my alarm clock, and the rest of the time you can always find the time without lugging it around with you all day :laugh4:
Same here. :2thumbsup:Quote:

Will always make me separate between my right and left hand, even if I don't wear it. :laugh4:
I have a nice Fossil that i got as a gift and i have a sweet Rolex knock-off that i got for $15 on the streets of NYC!
I use mine cell phone usually. No need for time when you are a hard worker, or a really poor one.
A Casio of some sort. It's about two years old, the strap has broken off twice and then been glued back on. It's a damn good watch. I feel naked without it.
I could never aford a Rolex. :embarassed:Quote:

$20 Timex Walmart Special. Yep. I'm stylin'.

I have no money, and can barely afford 30p cans of tomato soup. My Sekonda broke yesterday, and my plastic casio won't light up anymore...
Swatch irony, a simple aluminium watch ... served me well these past years, that and it is really hard to damage (at least, hard when doing normal stuff, like hitting a wall with your arm).
Shows the date and, uh, the time? The pointer thingies also glow in the dark.
I dont like watches I look funny with one on
