I wear this Citizen every day:

It's a great watch at a solid price (got it for $100ish new, delivered).

I have a few more watches I wear depending on occasion and what I'm wearing.

For beater watches, I prefer Timex. Lots of people crap on them but I've never had a bad Timex watch, and they're inexpensive and last a long time.

I really like that watch

My brother showed up with a green bezel Submariner. I lusted over that watch for a month before he told me, it was a fake! A damn Chinese knock-off! With out a very close examination you would never know.


I think the Rolex Datejust is the most faked watch in the World and the Rolex Submariner is the most copied (looks like there are a few in this thread alone that are obviously styled directly off the Submariner)

Mine is an LV with Maxi dial - I've had 4 different Rolexes but this is my favorite.


...and if you're wearing a watch to just tell the time then you're missing the point of a fine timepiece.

I'm partial to Citizen Eco Drives. I've still got the one my wife bought me thirteen or fourteen years ago. My daily watch is a black rectangular face Citizen Mickey Mouse (for work). Beater watch is a Timex with a fabric/Velcro band and glow in the dark hands.

Wouldn't be caught dead with a digital....

Sure, my Iphone can tell me what time it is, but I'm a bit old school. Plus, a decent watch looks good at the end of a suit jacket. Strapping an Iphone to my wrist would just be tacky.

That's exactly why I bought the Invicta that I own, because it is an homage to the Rolex Submariner.

I know I'll never be able to afford one. :cry3:

I wear one everyday. I'm a watch whore. I have a couple Fossils and an Ecodrive to choose from when I get dressed up, a couple G Shocks for work, and a few others for when I'm working outside and don't care if they get beat up.

I usually don't wear a watch anymore, I just check the cell. I do have a small collection of old pocket watches and a couple of wrist watches. I do have an 18 size Elgin Father Time in the collection and several Hamiltons. Here are a couple that I do have pics of.
