What time do you wear?


What watch, if any, graces your wrist? Does time matter? You know: time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. Either way.

This seems like a silly question for an audiophile form, but I wear a gold Rolex day-date mode, IIRC it's called the president model. I wore a previous Rolex since I received it as a graduation gift in the late 50s. But that watch was lost in the late 80s in transit to Rolex. With insurance and a lot of extra cash, I bought my current Rolex. Rolex is the only watch I haven't broken, including Timex.

Hey Mitch - some people I know consider hifi stereos to be jewelry since an iPod is enough!

Aball, if a hifi stereo is considered jewelry, and an iPod is considered enough, I guess I might be a bit overdressed. Guilty as charged.

had rolex explorer two for 10 years. in i989 they cost around 1000 dollars, in 2010 they cost 5000. i sold it for more than i paid for it and it was heavily used to say the least. but the crystal is 600 plus i believe and tuneups every 3 years are very expensive. so best cheap cool watch is the sieko orange monster. can be found for 160 dollars. my current favorite is the hamilton khaki frogman. can be found for 600 dollars and uses a swiss movement installed in many 3 to 4 000 dollar watches.i really enjoy it and its not overly large as is the current industry style. so many watches so little time ha. interesting thing about the rolex is that it sliced me open chopping wood several times. anybody else have that happen?
