@walrus I have a feeling you'll be buying a new watch soon....

Interesting, never checked out that brand

Do you guys also have pierced ears and wear necklaces? Im not judging, its just that there is zero difference anymore. I had a Rolex that was my dads which I wore for a couple of days, but it just felt cumbersome and essentially was so useless.

Those that wear watches everyday will have a cheap but hard wearing one. Those that wear them on special occasions do so and are treated like jewellery

No piercings, no tats, no necklaces on me. Wearing a watch is not a requirement by any stretch.

I try to wear a watch every day, I've got 1 watch which is on the cheaper side...I need to get batteries in that one actually. I treat none of them as "jewelry" my wedding ring is "jewelry" a watch has a function other than looking pretty making it different than jewelry, granted they can be accessorized.


Would cuff links count as "jewelry"?

That's true. I usually don't wear one except on dressing up occasions.

A watch can be

- something on your wrist to tell the time, in which case cheap and rugged is good
- a piece of jewellery or 'pose'. Because it also tells the time, we can convince ourselves it's not just jewellery bling
- outdated and unnecessary because your phone tells you the time

Yes I have an earring, a silver hoop in my left ear that will never be taken out (other than to clean) and has been there for 30+ years. It is there for many reasons and I would feel unwhole without it.

What happened to the Rolex

[TitoFan]

Only problem with my "watch" is it takes me longer to answer "What time you got?" as I have to reach into my pocket and turn on the display.

Rolex Sub.

Easy wearing and easy to sale.

Floyd Mayweather Junior is at it again and this time he’s gone all out on proving his impressive watch collection to the world via Instagram. Why? Just Mayweather things, one would assume. Or in his words, motivation for the haters.
It all started two days ago when the undefeated world boxing champion began innocently captioning his timepiece alongside a portrait of himself wearing the watch. First came the Richard Mille RM 59-01 Tourbillon Yohan Blake which retails for US$620,000.

Those watches look ugly.

[Fenster]

My watch just packed up, gutted, I couldn't workout how to change the battery so bought a new really expensive one (£50), fantastic, has a night light and everything, date, big digital numbers, hopefully i'll be dead before needing another.

Too flashy, those Richard milles are quite the engineering marvel but yes, they are ugly. The patek would be nice if it weren’t for the purple stones
