    Is that a genuine liquid crystal display, or a bootleg?

    If he got that under 10 dollars, then def a bootleg.

    Carrera is nice. As far as Tag-Heuer go I'd like this limited edition one of Monaco.

    This is what I wear. It was a gift from my wife when we got engaged.

    The Carrera is nice, but if I was getting a chrono I would want a Speedmaster just because. I also really like some of the Bell & Ross pieces I've seen, just not the square ones. I'm currently wearing this until I manage to get myself a big boy watch:

    can't wear a watch, can't stand it, maybe don't wanna be that grown.

    but here is a watch related article that seems to have ignited some debate within the auction house over the last couple months.

    That's a pretty nice watch JLR, how much would that one set you back?

    I'm rocking this one, everytime I come around your city bling bling:

    I've never been able to wear a watch, just couldn't get used to the feel.

    Let's discuss fine watches, plaese.

    This shit is fire:




    Too big, too ostentatious, and then not ostentatious enough.

    Something like this is where it's at:

    thanks for sharing (I think it's time for a "Thanks for sharing" graemlin), but this is a Fine Watches thread, we don't need your comment here. You must be the kind of person that starts "I'm quitting record collecting" threads in record forums.

    I had my eye on a "piece" like this:

    I've never worn a watch and am known to be very punctual.

    Earlier this year my boss presented me with a very nice(and expensive) watch as a reward for completing a project.

    Not wanting to insult him I put it on.

    Later on that afternoon I was late for a meeting.

    I haven't worn it since.

    Nice one. It's also nice to be able to talk about real pieces in a collection. I mean, records are not pieces, sorry.

    I'm adding this one to the everyday watches collection:

    Would love to own a Rolex Daytona though.

    I took this from my dad after he stopped wearing it; he wore it throughout most of my childhood and it's older than I am:



    I don't wear watches much these days and have no interest in the high-end models but I would be down to drop a few hunnid for this:



    It's an Omega Dynamic Geneve from the '70s.

    classic style on those 70's watches.. I like those. Simplicity is key.

    I used to be the same way when I was younger. I didn't like the feel of a watch at all and never wore them. Then when I was about 25 or 26 my uncle got me a watch for Christmas. When I got it I wasn't overly thrilled since I didn't wear watches but just for kicks I started wearing it occasionally and actually started liking having it around. To your point about the cell phone, I got my watch back before I had a cell phone so having a watch really came in handy. Now I'm to the point that I feel out of synch if I don't have my watch on, even though I have a cellphone and honestly will usually reach for that to check the time.


    As far as my own watches, I have like 5 or 6 now. I don't have the $$$ to really have any serious pieces, but when (if) I ever have money I'll definitely be buying a few nice watches. So far I just buy Fossil watches which aren't luxury or anything, but your average dude thinks spending $15 on a watch is more than enough, so even my $50 Fossil watches are nicer than most people have.
