What kind of watch are you looking for? Diving, Military, dress, casual, sports? Or just watches in general.

Most for casual (work in It department at my Uni to give an idea),for more sporty watches I might try for a G-Shock probably so atm looking for a bit more casual/dress.

Right now I use either the Sun or my Phone. I have some G-Shocks, a Citizen Fighting Bracelet (sucks) I want to get a cheapy binary watch and a cheapy skeletal. I'd rather a cheap watch act cheap than a $300 piece of crap. Citizen, if you're reading this: YOU SUCK.

I'm a GUESS watches fan. Their quality is pretty good by my experience. I purchased the chronograph watches. As per casual, I use Calvin Klein or Skagen

T hose who abuse power, are nothing but scumbags! The challenge of power is how to use it and not abuse it. The abuse of power that seems to create the most unhappiness is when a person uses personal power to get ahead without regards to the welfare of others, people are obsessed with it. You can take a nice person and turn them into a slob, into an insane being, craving power, destroying anything that stands in their way. Affiliate Code: 3T15O1S07G

Archaic? lol. I'm sorry if wearing a watch makes it easier and faster to tell the time than uncliping a cell phone or digging it out from a pocket. I can look at the shadows and tell the time, just not as accurate, but still. Unless you have some digital clock built into your vision I don't see what's so archaic about something that works and does it's job better than a cell phone.

haha, how does a watch do the job BETTER than a cell phone? It tells the time better? It either tells time or it doesn't.

I've had a citizen watch for over ten years. It's solar so I've never had to replace the battery and it has a pertepual calendar that will keep the accurate date and time until 2023. Saw it at Dillards back in the day for about $380 but bought it online at blue dial for $125. I love a nice watch. It adds a touch of class.

"class" what is class? It looks expensive? people drop this word all the time, but classiness is definitely a subjective thing.

Come on hoserx you know what I mean.  Rather than class, it's like a nice finishing touch. I can relate it to PC building. Many people obsess over the interior of their case. Wiring, lighting, color scheme, etc. None of it is really necessary but it looks nice. On a personal note, my father always emphasized the importance of being on time. I'm rarely without my watch...guess I'm a little old school. I also refuse to buy a blower for yard clean up. Been using a broom since I was 13 and that's the way I like it!

Cell phone :P I can't stand wearing watches. If anything I'd like to have a pocket watch I guess.

I have a silver Tisso binary my wife got me about 8 yrs ago from Italy... it looks good and I can wear it with casual or business attire. It also works off of motion. For work, I wear a G-Shock (no cell phones are permitted in my area). Ive beat it to death and drenched it on just about every kind of fluid known to man (almost... lol). Only problems Ive had with the G-Shock type are the bands wearing out and breaking off around the face (extreme usage). Back in my single days Fossil was the way to go and very affordable. If you got the cash, Breitling makes a great watch. Good luck!

Brad_Hawthorne hoserx yeah, so are teeth, as we have food processors that can turn anything into drinkable form these days. Teeth are an archaic fashion statement? What part of Redneckville do you live in? HHAHAHAHA made my day. Anyway, do you collect watches or something. Is this some new hobby of yours to buy a watch every paycheck seems odd but what ever. I use my phone or the clock on every thing else, GPS, Car, PC, Microwave, Cable Box, TV, Stove, Banks, Sun, among the other million things. Just look around and you will see a clock somewhere close. It doesn't make sense anymore to purchase watches, they are usually uncomfortable and do the same thing everything else around you does. It comes down to some silly fashion statement anymore which is hilarious... really it does or old people which don't have cell phones. I mean look at the younger generation of kids who actually where a watch and you can tell they are wearing it because they think it is awesome or ballin...
