Got a cool watch? Let's see it.

[Hardware02]

Here's the watches I currently have in rotation (except for the G Shock)

The first "expensive" watch I've ever owned (I realize that's totally relative) and a gift from Mrs. Hardware back when this was a good portion of her monthly wages. I just got it back from Citizen after a servicing (new rubber strap, new battery, cleaning, new gasket and paint touch-up on the 12 o'clock marking on the bezel).

Citizen Promaster




Next, another gift from Mrs. Hardware - she bought this for me when we were vacationing in Dubai. Also just returned from Citizen after a servicing (new battery, new gasket & cleaning).

Citizen Promaster Air Diver's in Titanium




Citizen Eco Drive Diver's in Titanium. Got this on sale at a jewellery store that was closing for $150.



All the Citizens are Japanese movements.


Now on to Seiko.

SNM037 Automatic Diver's. It's mechanical so if I don't wear it and don't think to swing it 30-50 times a day it winds down. Another one I found on sale (IIRC <$200).



Malaysian movement.


Finally, my Seiko Diver's Kinetic. It uses movement the same as the mechanical automatic to charge a cell so it can sit for extended periods without moving and stay accurate.



Japanese movement.

Did Rolex ever do a pocket watch as in a time piece on a chain?

The week or so I was wearing a watch a few weeks back, it frsutrated my but a pocket watch on a chain, I am thinking that might be the go

Sure - it's fashion over function and not that uncommon today.

I won't look twice at a watch if the hands aren't obvious or get lost on the face itself.

I will start a Mr. Hamilton sees the world thread as soon as I can. i will post an alert in this thread. Once an inmate has the watch, who he passes it along to will be at his discretion (as long as they are a member of advrider). That being said, Mr. Hamilton loves adventure and far off lands, so I encourage you to consider these facts when selecting the next wearer.

Have you started a thread yet for this??

I can do NYC, a range of places in the UK, and Moscow

Kind of/sort of. I think mechanical watches are the ultimate in machinery.

Love this watch...

[Buccleuch]

Which one?

My at-the-moment daily wear is my Omega Seamaster Chrono, stainless steel, blue dial.

Check out the Citizen Stiletto. I almost bought this last watch last week, but ultimately did not because it would be my only watch, and I wouldn't be able to tell time on it
