Watches

[Omicron]

Bought an Omega Constellation years ago, has been my "daily driver" ever since. For more rough and tumble, I have a Casio Pathfinder with a ParacordWraps.com band which I love (altho it is HUGE) and a Timex Ironman. In case of EMP, I have several manual wind and self winding watches in a variety of brands.

I really like watches. Kind of sad to see so few young people wearing them today, thanks to the pocket computers we all carry.

Took a look at a few pocket watches yesterday but didn't find anything real durable looking or with features I'd actually like and use. Its cool to have an altimeter, temp, count/down, stopwatch feature etc., but why the hell can't anyone make something a bit more sturdy these days? Also, I'm probably WAY outside the norm here as I don't own a cell phone at all. For one, none of them work in my area and second I have no real need for one. Always near other forms of comm if necessary.

Haven't entirely needed a watch either as my home and work space have clocks, but figured it wouldn't hurt to have one however after looking at what's available, (or lack there-of) out there I think I've given up for now LOL.

Did you see these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-TIMEX-EX...item3ccde81203

That's the only pocket watch with all the gizmos I can think of

For plain analog orient makes one now or look around on ebay you get get a old stainless elgin for pretty cheap if it's lasted this long it should be able to take a beating.
