cue Rek's rage...

That's what I use now, but like this...

My scandanavian cellular telemessaging machine is held together with stickytape, shiny new ones just have no appeal to me. In fact with the squeezebox radio alarm clock, I barely use the thing anymore.

I must admit I haven't worn a watch in years, always check my phone if I need to know the time.

I agree with tkam.

I feel naked without my plastic $14 Casio watch on.

I don't own a watch. I can't stand having anything on my wrists or fingers, or anything like a necklace on me, though sometimes I try. I just end up ripping them off after a couple hours when I can't stand it any longer and losing them. Strange thing is that my twin brother has been collecting (as in a serious hobby) rare and high-end watches for about twenty years, with almost any of them being pricer than all my audio gear put together and then some. I tried to get him to listen to my headphones once, and wouldn't, saying, "You'll get an ear infection. Buy a watch."

Can't jump on it right now (only 2hrs left in that auction) but at prices around that I think I could swallow it and the wife wouldn't kill me.

If she does kill you, dibs on your watch and stereo.

It was between a Rolex Oyster Perp Datejust and the L3000 when I was looking for a grad present for myself. Fortunately the headphones were less than half what the watch cost

My $16 Casio (I overspent) is so thin and light, I have to check my wrist to see if I remembered to put it on.

Hehe. I do like light watches though.

I also like not having to worry about scratches on a cheap watch.

I would say that the bose or B&O of watches are mavado or Tag's...

imo

I haven't worn a watch since I lost 4 in under 6 months at shows. (The pit was always a bit rough).

I think I'll be content watchless until I can get a HUD wired into my optic nerve a-la Gibson/Stephenson.

Now, if a nice watch would make the farking bus run on time, that would be different.

The fact that random strangers are less likely to ask me the time is a bonus.
