i think for me, the panerais were every cool when i first started to get interested about watches. but i guess after all the readings and photos of other watches, my tastes have changed. but yes, they are one of the classics, well at least i too consider them as a classic design.

i love g-shocks and the following is what i have -

G-Shock GW-M5600BC-1

G Shock DW5600FS-3JF aka Hero G - the g shock that is so ordinary yet hard to find.

G-Shock GW9200-1 aka Riseman

watches to me is about practicality and that's what i love about the G.

I know so many people who swear by the G-Shock watches.

IWC is the Pilot, it is my only leather strap watch. Well Igot my first watch almost 10 years ago so I have been building a nice collection. I have the watches I wear everyday and I rarely wear my IWC since I am not a leatherband type of guy.

Hmm, I think I'll buy me a nice lambo before I get an AP watch :p.

I have the PAM296, I saw it in NY and fellin love with it. I wish it didn't have the cyclops but the gun metal is what sold me.

Nice I really like the big pilots, also the Portuguese. You can get an AP in the 20's vs. a 200 lambo lol. But I know what you mean those and Patek's are incredible and always glorious to see.

I love watches. Here are some of mine.

My favorite is my Panerai. It's easy to switch straps which makes it versatile.

My Rolex GMT is a classic.

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...a/DSC_0023.jpg

Breitling Crosswind. Breitling makes a great watch for the money.

http://i114.photobucket.com/albums/n...a/DSC_0031.jpg

Tag Monaco, Limited Edition Steve McQueen 75th Birthday watch. I don't like Tags, but this one was pretty unique and I got a great deal on it.

I also have a 53mm U-Boat Left Hook, but I don't have a pic right now. I rarely wear that one. It is almost too big. It's about the size of the clock Flavor Flav wears around his neck.

Balzdeep 07-17-2009 03:05 PM

I'm a seiko whore.

Limited edition chronograph - 1000 pieces #572
Black Monster diver
Titanium Samurai - blue face SBD003 (very rare)

Cheers

No, it's fully automatic. The exhibition back only comes with the daily winders.

smurfblu13 07-17-2009 03:18 PM

Ah good point forgot about that.

kdo2milger 07-17-2009 03:47 PM

oh man, love those watches.

i guess now you need is a sumo to complete your collection?

chubbs 07-17-2009 04:46 PM

Hmmm - I am left-handed and wear a watch on my right wrist, so because those 'analogue style' watches have the 'winder' knob on the right I would never buy one (totally the wrong way round for me).

I live on a planet designed for right handers - but don't get me started on that one :tiphat:
