The Official Watch Thread
 
Show em off if u got em! $10-$100,000, i think we can all appreciate a nice watch. so if you got one you are proud of, lets see it!

Myself, I dont have tons of money for a tag, or a rolex, etc... so i appreciate a good fossil at this point in my life. I'll just show a couple of my favorites for now.

Fossil Grant Chrono

I don't usually wear a wrist watch, but when I do, I wear a TI EZ430-Chronos.

I like that last Bulova.

I forgot to put mine on this morning (was in a real rush), but this is the only one I have for now:

It's Diesel time!

I'm not a high-roller with watches. I alternate a Timex Weekender with soft leather NATO strap and a Guess Tiesto watch.

Since I'm a total weird geek, I do throw on an Android watch now and then.

I've wanted to pick up a Vostok watch for a long time, but never get around to it.

i have a cheap kinetic seiko. works great.

Bought this on our honeymoon in St. Thomas, VI back in 1986. Not a very good picture, but great watch...

that is one beautiful piece

m4a1mustang 06-13-2013 11:07 AM

I haven't bought an expensive watch yet. Too many expensive hobbies.

I do like to tinker, though, so I am always screwing around with Seiko 7S26 movements. Taking them apart, putting them back together again, etc.

I have a few others, but that's what I have on right now. Eventually I am going to pick up a Speedmaster and Submariner. It's just not a priority right now.

Very nice sir, and thank you for your service.

edub370 06-24-2013 01:29 PM

And so it begins. Early wedding gift:

Omega Planet Ocean 8500 - 42mm

Was looking at a Rolex Sub and Omega Speedmaster but decided on the PO. I will get the other two later, but I think this was right to start off with. Love it!

I must say you have exquisite taste sir.

m4a1mustang 10-26-2013 10:27 PM

Likewise. I suspect we will both have Speedy Pros before 2014 is out.

I love watches...started with a movado....classy...simple...then bought a tag Indy 500 which is my everyday watch. My rugged watch is my marathon watch which is a military watch. It's huge. My show off piece is my U Boat flightddeck. Has carbon fiber in the watch. All black. I love the Omega Seamaster though. Watches are a sickness and not a cheap one at that.

axmea? 11-02-2013 01:09 AM

I used to collect hard and heavy. Stopped soon after I got my Z. I love 'em watches. Here's a few.

Imperious "Man of War" in black/black, silver/teal, and gold/gold on custom Swiss Ammo, Shark skin, and B&R style racing straps.

Confirmed. When are you getting yours?

XiP 11-04-2013 01:33 PM

Here's my watch collection (yes I like Seiko watches :P)
I wear the one on the far right most of the time now though due to the tritium illumination and rubber strap which is comfy...
