i don't even wear a watch anymore and haven't in years because i have this newfangled thing called a cellular telephone which happens to show me the time.

that said, i think it's cute some guys love them- it's your version of accessories. we all like to gild the lily sometimes.

I know that a man wearing a nice watch gives a shite. One who looks at his phone makes me doubt him.

What do you own? Sorry for all the questions. I just like a good watch convo. `

I'm about to head to lunch, but I'll share mine.

My first "real" watch was Brietling Superocean Steelfish. I sold it a few years ago. I'm not a big Brietling fan. 2nd watch was a Tag Carrera (CAR2111.BA0730). Another one I ended up selling. Outside of the Monaco Tag doesn't do it for me either. #3 is a gold Rolex Datejust. Its the watch a wore to my wedding so it has a special place in my heart. #4 was a the green Rolex Sub or "the Hulk". I needed a good sport/dive type watch in my collection since I sold the Superocean. I finally hit the big time with my next one a rose gold JLC master control. Its my baby. Since then I've picked up and sold a Speedy 861 from the 80s & a LE Monaco. Ended up settling and keeping a LE Speedy 50th Anny "Patches". My next target is a Nomos with their own swing system. Nomos is such an awesome brand. I only discovered them a few years ago.

Edit: I also just got passed down a Bulova L2 Squadron and a Bulova Accurtron from my grandfather who recently passed. Not exactly my style, but very meaningful.

Currently and this is just roughing it

Marathon JSAR
Breitling Emergency

I've never owned a Tag or Rolex. They are just too mainstream for me and that doesn't appeal to me at all. I like wearing the stuff not many people have heard of like Omega Ploprof

That is a big bitch. You won't see that around munch, you are correct. And I feel like my 42mm Speedy is too big at times.

Rolex is an odd situation. Its the "status" watch that everyone knows so everyday D bag that wants a nice watch buys one without appreciating the horology of the brand. However it sticks to its guns. They don't follow trends. They use a 904 steel and fine metals. And have great in house movements.
