This might have been covered already but I was wondering what kind of watch you guys roll with. Nothin fancy for me, a Relic for when I'm all dressed up and an Armitron for play time outdoors.

Redid the band in blue, about time to make another for it. $7 digital from wal-mart. I have a couple nicer looking watches but for everyday I like this one. Has the day and date displayed right about the time which is handy when you have to write it on about a half-dozen forms every day.
 
I never go out without a watch, my mom instilled an obsession with punctuality and keeping to schedule in me and I check the time obsessively :eek:

L to R:
Casio Illuminator, beater digital watch for working out/yardwork/etc.
Timex Weekender w/ spare straps, for color coordinating
Timex Expedition w/ black Nato strap, for formal but tough use
Casio G-Shock GD100-1b, for really tough use/going out

None of them are super fancy but they keep me on schedule
 
i have a nice invicta my wife got me three christmas's ago its a nice watch far better than i would have bought myself lol!
 
Casio Pathfinder PAW-1200 for everyday:

Damn you guys have some nice watches.


I just wear whichever of these I grab first. This Luminox has beentheredonethat. I never mess with setting the date either :D

$20 Timex Expeditions . Reset them each Spring and Fall to an atomic time signal, and they're never more than 15 seconds off.
Good enough for me! :rolleyes:
 
I use my phone, but I'm gonna be traveling and will need to get another watch. I used to ALWAYS wear one, until mine died right when I had my first pager. I got used to using the pager and phone and haven't worn a watch consistently since. Last time I went to sea for work ( 8-10 years ago ), I had one, but it would *crash*. Not stop, but *crash*. The little thing just wigged out. It's time for a new, reliable timepiece. Thank you for the reminder.
 
I don't tend to do multiple watches for different applications. Currently it's a Casio Chrono my wife gave me on valentines day last year.

Cheap timex analog that's about 20 years old. Changed bands but can't get rid of the watch. It's my buddy. I've beat the crap out of it and it still works like a champ.
 
GD-100MS I like the black chrome double buckle and how it has the red back light, makes it a lil different. Only complaint I have is that it can be a pain in the ass trying to take off my jacket sometimes because the sleeve gets caught up on it. A result of it being on the chunky side.

iPhone keeps my time---if I don't have that or I'm out of batteries then I have no clue what time it is :confused:
 
You can also use your manual watch as a compass. Point the hour hand at the sun, half way between the hour hand and 12:00 is due south.
