What time do you wear?

i have just returned from ces, early unfortunately. interestingly, i had several conversations with audio friends re: the correlations between tastes for the highend and cars/watches, etc. this was recognized by mb (now, ugh, daimler benz), which brought some of their most exotic benz's to ces 'cuz of the "market niche" ces participants represent (the rep from mb, na told me this). i also spent time with some distributors of swiss and german highend gear, each of whom wore an unpretensious but nice watch, swiss of course, on their wrist. so, i guess i don't mind admitting that my "everyday watch" is a brietling crosswind (steel and gold) with pilot 2-tone bacelet.

I wear for everyday a GEVRIL Chronometer 51 jewel automatic watch.I also have a Black Sapphire Movado and A 1956 Rolex Zephyr,automatic certified chronometer totaly restored in 14k and S/S.I also collect and trade watches.Have a couple of Omegas{GREAT WATCHES}for trade and Krieger Automatic certified chronometer.Also have a few manual wind vintage watches too.I'm not crazy about quartz watches with the exception of Movados.But most of the high end audiofiles I know have nice watches to wear.Cheers

Dekay - I went to a reasonably rigourous high school, and often students would come to school extremely tired, having spent the night studying. Anyway, if someone fell asleep in calculus, the teacher had this uncanny skill for not missing a beat in her lecture, walking over to a cabinet, removing the very same clock to which you refer, placing it on the poor saps desk, and watching with a satisfied grin as the class got a good chuckle at someone's expense. I loved that clock. I wear a Raymond Weil which imho has Movado's design simplicity (and precision, and saphire crystal) without the inflated price tag.

Princess- I thought this was an audio site.

Very funny story Robba. The clicken clock used to "shock" me awake and now resides in the spare bathroom (my bathroom). Our last guest (my stepdaughter) liked it so much that she ran down the alarm/music battery in a weeks time. The clock may still be available at the "tube socks" flea markets, ours came from a yard sale.
