Can you model one on your wrist? I want to see how much arm hair you have compared to @Joey_V
My lack of arm hair lets the watch do all the talking, sir.Magico M2, JL113v2x2, EMM, ARC Ref 10 Line, ARC Ref 10 Phono, VPIx2, Lyra Etna, Airtight Opus1, Boulder, AQ Wel&Wild, SRA Scuttle Rack, BlueSound+LPS, Thorens 124DD+124SPU, Sennheiser, Metaxas R2R -
Wore the wrong watch to work this Christmas Day... but all is well, going home to celebrate with the family and the time is just right.

Agree that color clashes with the car color interior!

Hate when that happens -
I have a Breitling Evolution two-tone, blue face, and a Rolex two-tone sub with champagne face and sapphires and diamonds for numerals. It was a limited edition. I wear one of them every day, and have enjoyed both immensely. Every time work seems to be a pain, they remind me that persistence pays, and hard work leads to rewards.
Both are worth a lot more than I paid for them, so the argument of cost vs. invest seems reasonable to me. Buy a Casio and it's never worth more than the day you bought it....a fine watch appreciates over time. I've owned many nice watches over the years, mostly Rolexes and Breitlings, and some Omegas, and have never lost a penny.

Yeah I hear ya.
I think my 4 rolexes are a total of $65,000 currently. Maybe a little less.
I paid $25,000 for all 4 brand new from dealer.
Had I bought a bunch of no names, I’d be in the red by whatever I paid.Magico M2, JL113v2x2, EMM, ARC Ref 10 Line, ARC Ref 10 Phono, VPIx2, Lyra Etna, Airtight Opus1, Boulder, AQ Wel&Wild, SRA Scuttle Rack, BlueSound+LPS, Thorens 124DD+124SPU, Sennheiser, Metaxas R2R -
Bought one of my grail pieces at the Panerai Boutique in NYC while my ship was there for Fleet Week. Big chunk of change but I’ve been lusting over a 8 day PAM for a long long time

I'm not much into watches etc., but recently I finally got around to looking through of my Dad's stuff left to me. Came across a Bulova Accutron in decent condition that he kept in its original display box. Looks like it needs a battery. Has a price tag of $100 from many moons ago. Is this a collector item or just another watch?Yep, my name really is Bob.
