I haven't worn a watch since I got my first pager in Jr. High, but I got one for my birthday this year and I really enjoy it.

My GF bought me an "Arnie reissue" Seiko. SNJ 027

Been wearing this everyday since I got it and I like it a lot.

What watches do you guys wear?

Cool. I use to have a bunch, but after I bought my Garmin MARQ Driver, I stopped wearing regular watches.

I've had smart and "regular" watches but just prefer wearing the non-smart watches on the daily.

If I want to run/bike/workout and want to measure time/distance HR then I'll switch to the smart watch.

Born and raised Brockton. Living in Naples.
Awesome everyday watch.
My go to everyday is a Gshock with a srewback case made in Japan.

My nice watch is a Rolex DeepSea.
Just went to the two authorized Rolex dealers in Naples and got on the list for the Rolex GMT SS with the jubilee bracelet in either black/blue or black/red bezel. Both told me I better be a patient man. Or buy a gold Rolex and jump to the top of the list.
Will prolly sell the DeepSea if and when I get it.

Had a Apple Watch and lost it swimming in the ocean. Nevah again. Waste of money imho. I prefer the gshock. The wise watch was getting annoying.

A G-Shock is on the short list right now.

A Rolex is out of my reach right now, I would love to have a classic "Pepsi" or "Root Beer". Basically any Rolex or Omega that 007 sported would also be something I'd aspire to own.

Roger Moore wore a Seiko similar to the Arnie watch in For Your Eyes Only:

For a smartwatch, that's one of the nicer looking ones aesthetically imo. Up there with some of the Tags, but the Garmin offers way more cool features/uses.
I'm going to buy a MARQ Captain as well, just because I don't like wearing black watches with blue/brown haha

Yep. Same with the SS Cosmograph which I want. My jeweler won't even show you one if you are not an established customer. Very hard to come by.

That is awesome OP. Seikos are the shit. Here is my 50th anniversary Kermit. I would like to get a seamaster in blue or black.

I always wanted the SS Daytona white face but as I have gotten older I really need readers to see up close now which I don’t wear all day.
I can’t see the watch face; god dam it, well enough on that model to justify it anymore so I want the GMT now and eventually a Gold Presidential day/date. But that watch carries with it certain responsibilities. Such as. Don’t leave home without your Glock if that’s on your wrist. It’s too flashy.

I’ve only seen a gold Rolex in the wild once. After I saw it I thought yep, no way I’d wear that out without protection.
