What watch are you wearing?

So what do the watch afficionados think of the Apple watch craze?

 

I was at a birthday brunch a few weekends ago and 4 out of 7 people had there cell phones communicating through their left wrists.

 

I felt quote smug using Swiss analogue technology.

Did you get yours yet??

I did, I wore it once put it in the safe, I will look for a willing buyer ;)

I'm just too used to my work horse I think, sent it in for a polish good as new ,,,day in day out swim, work, play

I need rugged no issue work horse,

Sadly that Steinhart is more an office type watch than a grease monkeys watch

This I knew when I bought it but I've sold 90% of my watches and I thought a change would be good,,,,I was wrong

The money went to a very good cause though :thumbup:  :thumbup:

After the Tissot PR50 my folks gave me for my 21st tanked after 19 years (yes...40 this year), I decided to get an Orient Blue Mako for the same price as it would cost to fix the Tissot. Ordered on Amazon last Wednesday, was on my desk at 8:15 this morning. Awesome service.

 

Due to this thread I really wanted a Steinhart OM1, but those are too big for my girly wrists. Had to look for a smaller diver.
