What time do you wear?

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.

Depends on the occassion. For everyday wear, a Breitling Chrono or an Omega Constellation (both automatic, of course). For more special occassion a gold Concord Mariner, and for VERY elegant occassion, an ultrathin, vintage gold manual wind-up Omega on a croc. strap. I'm afraid I am not a Rolex fan - too many of them "out there". Saving up for the Audemars Royal Oak and/or the Patek Calatrava.

I was a Rolex President guy for many years, and as stated above by another poster, began to see way too many of what I owned. Four years ago, I sold the Rolex, and bought an Omega Titanium Seamaster. Yes there are smaller, lighter watches, but this baby is beautiful and TOUGH. It keeps time better than I can manage my own schedule, and I enjoy the mechanical excellence it brings to a world too often filled with poorly built products. I also own a Casio, bought for $49.00, keeps PERFECT time, and I take it along to crappy locations. If it gets stolen or lost, who cares?
