Guitars > Watches

In the sense of men's accessories, I think it's far more obnoxious to have an unused guitar for decoration. "Yeah I've been meaning to learn, I marked some youtube tutorials to watch..."

Any unnecessary and/or unused artifact inspires derision from acquaintances and fellow civilized humans... except american NEO-GEO home cartridges.

I agree.

I have 6. I only don't play one, because it was a gift I gave to my brother in law who died, and I was gifted it back by the family. Truth be told it's not a high quality guitar, so I don't play it. But I play the rest of them, even my shitty bass guitar lol.

I splurged once on a low tier swiss mechanical watch (a zeno) back in 2012(?), and I only wear it at weddings or formal events.

It scratched the itch and I'll probably never fuck around with expensive watches ever again.

 

[Ralfakick]

China and japan have brought the prices of mechanical automatics down substantially. They keep time better than 99% of the Swiss movements

Case in point Seiko Automatic Diver $259

I have a Rangeman G•Shock I haven’t seen anywhere else but on my wrist. Struck when the iron was hot, and got lucky...used onboard cruise credit to get it.

My Swatch in Curaçao blue, that I got on Curaçao, is my daily driver.

Would love an old Senna for a formal night jawn; however, the MotoGP Tissots are in the running also.

 

[NeoSneth]

Casio Rangeman is a good find. There's some rabid Gshock fan's, so you could probably sell that for MSRP right now.

I have like 12 watches i've kept throughout my life...I dont think i ever replaced a battery on any one of them. Is it weird that i wear it on special occasions even though they dont work.

Seriously...replace the battery. Don't ya feel like a total shit for brains wearing a dead watch.....just wear a bracelet for fuck sakes.

So I’ve been informing myself a bit more, and I think the style I’m looking for is either a sporty dress watch or a dressy sport watch. Divers and other bulkier or more complicated watches are bit more than I want. I think the Seiko Presage SRPC79J1 with a steel band is kinda the look and feature set I’m going for and within my price range. Anyone have one of these?

Edit: I think it looks like a much more budget friendly Datejust, which if I had the money looks really sharp.

I'm not a big tymer. I've started wearing a Timex indiglo watch again. I used to wear them when I was younger but stopped because I found them uncomfortable. I get the utility of cell phones, but I'm not attached to the hip with mine. I like the functionally of having a watch, haven't hopped on the smart watch train though.

 

[Lets Gekiga In]

Seiko 5 is usually the way to go.

 

[titchgamer]

I have a few watches.

I have a Rotary which is a lovely watch but is only used as a dress watch as its to expensive to wear for general use.

I have a Seiko Chrono watch which I got as a gift from my previous employer which I cant rate highly enough, But I dont wear it to work as its likely to get damaged.

Then I have my every day watch which is a Casio wave ceptor digital watch.
Works great, Auto adjusts itself for perfect accuracy and is cheap as chips so I dont care if it gets knocked about (and it does).
But it also looks stylish for a digital watch so win win.

I did have a Seiko 5 before I got the Casio which is a automatic but it only lasted 6 months before it started loosing time to a noticeable degree.

I suspect that was due to my work more than anything but all autos loose or gain time to some degree anyway.
Other than that it was a really nice watch and again cheap.

And just a heads up, You can wear a metal strap watch with anything. You can dress down or up with it, its a jake of all trades. Leather straps are for dressing up.

Jake sounds like a guys name and leather straps is kinky.

 

[Karou]

leather straps hurt less than the metal ones way better all arounders, metal is for Special occasions.

See post #38.....already explained. You're doing it wrong.

I have:
114060 No date submariner
116234 36mm Datejust
Speedmaster moonwatch

 

[heihachi]

So I got a Seiko 007. Seems pretty nice so far.

 

[Burning Blade]

Mostly wear G-Shocks, because I like looking like an old man with teenage taste. Really though I love Casio watches, they seem to be mostly indestructible and look decent enough. I would really like to have a Casio Oceanus, or maybe a Phoibos Dive watch when I have some extra disposable income. Seiko is also a favorite, and I really liked the mini tuna I used to own. I love watches but I’ve only got two wrists so I only have/need a few.

As soon as Apple release a watch that can accurately monitor my blood sugar without stabbing my fucking finger several times a day, I’ll throw cash at them. Until then I’ll stick with me Gucci.

Do those continuous monitors have needles in them? Or do that have some sort of laser sensor thing?

 

[LoneSage]

Guys, what about cuckoo clocks?

Those sticky patches have a small filament that inserts under the skin to do the sensing, which is quite irritating. And it’s not continuous monitoring, you have to scan the patch with a device.

I want something that’s completely non-invasive as I’m pretty fed up with stabbing myself several times a day in different places.
