    I agree with @Swaye, no shame in the Apple Watch. My brother loves his.

    Oh, and I like the Mickey Mouse face. Of the vintage pieces I have this is oddly enough the one I get complemented on the most:



    Another grade school purchase (I think with babysitting money). I keep it for the nostalgia factor. Not sure why so many other people like it...maybe it’s the quirkiness of it.

    Apple Watch 3



    Flame away.

    Hey, I am not some elitist prick here my brother. I like Apple Watches. You know, tons of the rich fucks I know who have killer 60K watch collections with 4 Rolexes and 3 Omegas also have one of those uber G Shocks and or an Apple watch. Particularly people who like rock climbing, or jogging, or other intense "oh shit I just broke the crystal on my 8K Zenith FML" folks have what are affectionately called "beaters." Nobody wants to run in a 10K Rolex unless you wipe your ass with 100's. As a beater watch I have a sub thousand dollar Hamilton that I love.
    Yeah, it’s odd that sometimes the beaters are the most trendy, even with the well to do. I remember when everyone loved the Timex Ironman (gotta have that Indiglow!)



    Fitbits also were big recently, but I don’t see people wearing them as much anymore.

    Nobody wants to wear something that constantly reminds them they are not exercising enough and are becoming a fat ass.

    Do you have any super nice ladies watches?

    JLC Reverso perhaps?

    That is a bad ass watch. You should save your nickles and get that one day.



    edit: Just found one used at Crown and Caliber for less than 5K. A deal. I am sure you have that kind of coin in between couch cushions.

    I actually love most of those watches - but being on some property, having animals, etc. I can't have a nice watch. So I go cheap because I am rough on them.

    Came back from the dump one day and Mrs. Lebam noticed my watch was missing - slid off I guess when I was emptying the back of the truck. Told the other stories in the other threads.

    I have caught the battery terminals on my watches, and my wedding ring, am too stooped to remember to take them off. I do have an old, gold pocket watch that was my grandfather's if I think about it I might take a pix and post it. If I can find it.

    Pocket watches are awesome @LebamDawg. I wish those and fedoras came back into fashion.

    The website The Art of Manliness (which I really enjoy reading actually) has some great articles on watches if you boys want to beef up on the subject before @Swaye poasts about his next piece.
