Default What timepiece do u wear?

Do any of u have a watch fetish? I wear a tag heuer Se/l link everyday and have a Breitling for special occasions. I wanted a Rolex, but was not impressed with their accuracy. My next aquisition will be an Omega broad arrow.. I like its simplicity and style..

I had a Rolex Submariner, then it got stolen, when my house got done over last year. Never quite recovered from that.......now have an Accurist lol. Think I might start looking for a nice watch after x-mas. The Submariner was a bit bulky IMO, I have quite slender wrists. I like really simple classy designs.

hehe, even found a pic:



(this is not a pic of mine, in fact it was quite painful looking through them all)

My digital camera sucks ass at close range, hence the poor quality.

Edit by TT - pic removed, the galleries are for cars, not for watches, sorry

Yes, that one's very similar to my Tag Heuer.

Another that looks similar to mine is this one:

TT: sorry, man! It won't happen again! I didn't know.

Here's the link to my watches.

Well - I have to say it - I will drop $50,000 on a car in a heart beat (and did) - but can not get myself past spending $20 max on a watch.. (actually $40 on the last one - one of those Microsoft Data watches - scanned data off the PC monitor - it died and I never replaced it - that was 5 years ago... LOL).. I am not into the whole "feminie" jewelry thing...
