Watches

[Zingari]

7 of them are fairly cheap ones between 100-300 and 3 are time pieces, armani tag and a rolex. (its always a good idea where ever possible to pul the pin out to stop the batt running down as some of them get wrn once in a blue moon.

My passion for watches was ignited about 10 years ago and usually buy one a year. I should be stopping over in dubai soon (pending the ok from doctor....long story) and i will get another one i think.

i thought being the owner of 10 watches would at least make you a little more precise ,

! about 10 years ago as thats when i started buying my timberland watches etc and shortly after i realised my heart starts to beat faster and my pupils dialate when i see a nice watch. I must be a fellow watch geek!!

only 3 are time peices, so you have 7 watches costing between 100-300 that don't even tell the time? think they saw you coming...

Got my first G-Shock today, black with red accents.

Not as classy as a Breitling or a Rolex but I love them.

Got my eyes on a white and a yellow 1 next.

Thinking about getting a new watch.

Have this one at the minute, Nixon Superhero. Love it, but I've had it for a while now and I'd like an alternative watch to wear.

Any suggestions? Not looking for anything too expensive, I know that there is a new shop in the Highcross that does quality Diesel watches for really good prices.

Nixon do some quality watches from what Ive seen, gotta Nixon New Era aswell.

Ive been looking at Nookas alot lately, definetly more of a fashion thing than a function thing though.

Got my eye on a nice Storm one.

Bronze top, and a light tint to the metal strap.

£148 can get it for £103.60

similar to that one

Also got my eye on one similar to this:

That'd be the type of watch that wouldn't suit me tbh.

Would kill for one of these, but it'd set me back alot. Alot.

Someone on another forum I go on posted this, Im in love with it.

See I could take that or leave that.

I appreciate that that's what some people go for in watches but I prefer simplicity.

[Samilktray]

Thats what I'm talking about.

Again, brilliant if that's your bag.

I do "appreciate" it but it wouldn't be for me.

And please don't....

[potter3]

I need a watch, used to always wear one but the strap snapped and I never got another one.

I'd like one that you never have to set it gets it's signals from radio waves, and adjusts itself the the correct time for your current time zone

[cisono]

I'm a big fan of watches myself, but don't know many other people that are/appreciate a good watch!

Whats everyone got? Do you collect?

I've got 4, a plain Armani one with a black leather strap, a Breil with an orange strap, a Tissot with a stainless stell bracelet.

I have a Tag F1 aswell, the new chronograph one they have brought out recently looks classy. At some point in the future if I have a surplus amount of money I hope to Purchase a Rolex submariner, they are just amazing.

I went through a watch-collecting season when I bought several watches, mainly to do scuba diving with (the ones marked 200m or more). So I bought two women's scuba diving watches: an Astina and a citizen scuba one, both looking quite similar, to be fair. Here's the citizen (Citizen Eco-Drive Women's 300m Professional Diver Watch):

Also, two more diving watches with a glowing side (one I gave to a friend in the end),

plus a digital and analogue watch (so you can follow two time zones, I travelled a lot that year) and a small Timex digital watch with "animal" strap, very good for daily wear and to time those impromptu laps around the race track.

Sorry cannot find any pictures...

I guess my watch collecting is limited by the following considerations:

- not that many cool women's watches

- prices

- I end up wearing none these days (except my polar heart rate monitor, the women's F11 blue glow)

That watch is right down my alley. Unfortunately I don't have $250 to spend on a watch right now.

I've got a few Armani ones and a Rolex.

In truth, the Rolex only comes out for fairly formal occasions, but it's a beautiful watch.

I don't wear a watch day to day.

You scamp!

I got a Bvlgari, had it about 6 months. Sweet as a bell.

I only wear the Rolex on formal occasions thinking 'don't want it to get damaged'.

But on those occasions, I get more drunk than ever.

So it's ill thought-out really.

I know what you mean.

I have a Tag Heuer watch that I wear day to day/work and a Rolex Submariner that I reserve for special occasions. It's nice to have nice watches, but its bloody difficult to justify spending £££'s on them when there is so much other stuff to spend it on.

I inherited my Rolex from my Grandad. All my brother inherited was his nose. Sucker.

[Dr The Singh]

I go through watches like nobodies business, i've had some really nice ones, including Armani, POlice, Raymond Weil, Gucci and DKNY, so I tend only to wear reasonably cheap watches including DKNY and Diesal!!

Most of my watches have been lost during drunken adventures, i have a habit of leaving them in hotel rooms!!!

Exactly. I like the kind of watches which I quoted earlier but even then it's over £150 for a watch. I can't really justify spending that at the moment.

I think I'm going to buy this:

It's all about RETRO
