These are pretty versatile watches. I wear them to work and play, and even the occasional formal event.
Hey now, don't forget why this thread was bumped guys Rep to whoever can answer (of course). I wear these....
That's what I wear too. Simple, light. The black band with the silver stainless steel pops with anything you wear it with.
Orange Monster. Great watch and choice. I have a Black Monster and someday hope to add the orange one (since I probably won't be able to afford an orange Doxa).
When I was working (at least not working as a contract worker) I was into watches. I have the following: Seiko Black Monster, Seiko Blue Sumo (a really underrated diver, unfortunately only sold in Japan), Hamilton Khaki Automatic, Oris F1 Williams Team, a Strela 3133 (neat Russian chronograph), a Limes Cartouche (really beautiful German dress watch), and my one really expensive watch, a Kobold Spirit of America. http://www.koboldwatch.com/products/spirit-america-p-35.html I purchased almost all of the watches used (exceptions, the Sumo, Oris, and Strela) which is a great way to get a really good watch a reasonable cost. Now that I am on a tight budget my watch buying days are over. But if I was to but a watch I agree with a previous poster and recommend the Fossil watches since they have really dramatic designs for very affordable prices. You can find a used Monster for around $100.
Save your money. They use stock movements and the name was sold to a guy in the 90's. The Stowa watches of today have nothing to with the real Stowa heritage.
I love the look of Fossils, but don't know how reliable they are. I'm starting to think I may need a new watch. I've had my current Seiko for about 8 years, but I broke the date function on it. The time function works fine, though. I like Citizen's EcoDrive and Seiko's solar powered functionality, but like I said, Fossils look pretty sweet.
I have a Patek Phillipe that I never wore, I just couldn't find a right occasion. I occasionally wear an IWC made in 1917. Most of the time I just wear this, except the bracelet is black:
Still repping my Bulova Marine Star http://jewelry.hsn.com/bulova-mens-...stainless-steel-sport-watch_p-3271872_xp.aspx
Nice. This is the kind of style I like in a chronograph. I especially like the blue face with the two-tone body/band. I'm not a big fan of tachymeters, but everything looks awesome on this watch. I've got an old Bulova I use for special/"dressier" occasions.
I had to bump the old thread... I got this Ball Trainmaster Power Reserve for an early Birthday present from my rockin' girlfriend. I love the vintage style with the brown croc band.
You just wanted a waterproof one because of your excessive fapping. Won't stop working when it's flooded with Lil Jontros.
