Pardon me, but do you have the time?

I had a touch screen casio calculator watch back in Jr high in 1981. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

(I can't fins any pictures of it.)

He does and I want to own a Omega watch someday! I'm a watch guy and here is my watch collection in a nice watch jewelry case.

I own Bulova, Pulsar, Seiko and 3 Citizens.

Hey WolfViper, or anyone else for that matter - recommendations on a nice watch case? Or brands to look at or avoid? My little valet is getting crowded and I need to do something to straighten things up.

I just bought this guy and so far I'm digging it.

I'm not a watch expert, but I just buy what I like and price reasonable.

That is a nice looking watch, it interesting how the days are on there. I just stick with name brands and personally my favorite watches are Citizen, they look nice and price reasonable. Plus they have Eco-Drive, where you never have to replace the battery ever. It works off of natural or indoor light, for up to six months. Which I mean they always have to be out in the open or indoors, if you put it away in a dark area for six months then you will have to take it back outside to get it recharged. My next favorite is Seiko, I know Bulova is pretty expensive. Mine cost over $350, but I bought it on sale at JCPenny for about $250. That my expensive watch, which I only wear for special occasions.

Sorry I really don't know any brands to avoid, beside the cheap ones found at walmart or target and for the jewelry watch case. I bought mine from amazon.com it called Rosewood Finish Watch Case Display Storage Box Chest with Clear Viewing Top and holds 20 Watches.

It still amazes me how many of you on DRC are into watches. It's cool, just not something I think much about it.

If I collected them, I'd want old-timey ones with gears. Kinda steam-punkish.
 
I love watches. Brand doesn't matter to me, as long as I like the looks and it feels right. I bought a Casio the other day on clearance for $10 that looked nice - thought it would be a nice beater watch. But I hate the bracelet, and don't want to monkey with trying to find a replacement.

Orient is owned by Seiko now, but they've been making mechanical watches for a long time. Bastards just sent me a coupon for one of their new models!!! Oh the temptation!!!
 
i love my black eagle. i love the fact that its eco-drive, and all its million functions. you can hold your hand over it to block the sun, then once it get light again, the hands "catch up" to the right time.

Well my life was crap couple of months ago, I been working to stay on top of my bills. So I had some extra money on the side and decided to treat myself to something nice to a brand new watch. It a Seiko solar chronograph watch, I saw this watch in a store, but went shopping online and found it cheaper and had it shipped to my house.

Oh, sure, YOU can say that. But I lose my NBA team when I make Jewish remarks.

I've forgotten that you're Jewish and bisexual. You must get all the good junk mail.
