Wc65mustang, I have an 1968-9 Accutron (it is the one that was made out of solid 18c gold case) that stopped working about 6 years ago and I was never able to find someone who had the parts to repair it. It had something to do with the electronic parts. Have you had yours repaired?? My dad gave me the watch and I would love to get it repaired and wear it again. Thanks, Lou |
Mint604 Thats the diference.Rolex is not accurate.No mechanical watch is,cant compete with quartz.Rolex has a wonderful history...read it up and you wont wear a fake.I wear a real Rolex GMT II with Red/Black bezel.I still get a kick out of it ,everytime I put it on.Class is priceless and timeless ... |
i have a choice of four. tudor tiger chrono, omega seamaster chrono, chronoswiss lunar chrono, rolex daytona chrono. i am a sucker for multiple dial watches. paired down my collection by selling an omega schumacher chrono and a breitling about a year ago. the only watch i would consider selling is the omega, the rest are keepers. |
Swiss Army "Field" watch, given to me as a gift which is my everyday watch. I have others (Early 1960s Automatic Rolex, 1970s Automatic Longines, another recent quartz battery Swiss Army....) which I only wear occasionally. Yes, time does matter particularly when I have only less than 30 minutes left to a listening session before I do all the other household chaos:-((. |
I don't usually wear a watch, there are clocks everywhere. Once in a while i'll wear my grandfathers watch from the 50's?, an Omega, i don't know the model but it is comfortable, it has a rectangular shape. I wear it as jewelry i guess, it makes me feel good for some reason, maybe the family connection. Ok, now for a joke, My wife asked me for a watch for christmas, and i asked, what for ,there's a clock on the stove!! Only kidding, IT'S JUST A JOKE!! I'm not even married, as you can tell by the JOKE, Yes it's just a joke! Kinda funny though, i think. Any lady music lovers/audio geeks want to reply? Especially single ladies, although i'd like to hear from anyone, i deserve the abuse, c'mon. |
Cool watch, Khaki8. Reminds me a bit of this one, which you might also like: http://watchbuys.com/images/JSKulisse10.JPG |
Panerai (titanium black dial, steel white dail), IWC Portugeiser chrono, Lange 1 (blue dial white gold), franc muller conquistadore, JLC sun moon white gold, dad's old rolex, graduate advisor's old omega, corum bubble square. I have been waiting for my IWC 5001 7 day power reserve for a few months now. I seem to still look at my mobile phone for time though! I think watch hobby is even more addicting than analogue....mehran |
Since last posting to this thread I have started using an Eternamatic Kontiki (autowind) chronometer. First watch (other than my Sinn) that never needs a time adjustment - all I ever have to do is advance the date on non 31 day months. Built like a tank! Cost less than $1000. Rolex users, eat your heart out! :-) |
All I can say is... If it beeps, leave it at home when you go to the symphony, please! And if you're too deaf to hear your own watch beeping 18 inches away from your ears, stay home, unless your plan from the outset was to ruin my evening. http://www.chicagotribune.com/features/chi-0501150267jan15,1,1719706.story?ctrack=1&cset=true |
Only at work. A Seko, Bulova, or Waltham. But there I go spouting brand names, as if that meant something. I wear whatever catches my eye and tastes for about $100/watch. I can't seem to justify more than that since the watches seem slowly take a beating, even though I perform light work in dress clothes. On my off hours. I use my cell phone or my BlackBerry to tell time. Like farmer, I think pocket watches would last longer for me. But wrist watches just look to nice with dress clothes. So I think that partially answers Onhwy61's question. I find I reach for my blackberry most of the time when I want to know what time it is. I think it's the most accurate time piece I own. Lately it's also a better 'status symbol', if that matters. But the watches sure do look nice. :-) |
Rolex GMT Master 2, Red/Black Bezel with Jubilee Bracelet.I love Rolex watches,timeless design,never goes out of fashion and keeps its value well.I bought it new.My other favourites are: Submariner 50th Anniversary Green Bezel,Submariner,two tone,blue face with the Oyster bracelet and the ss Daytona. |
For several years a 70 or 100 dollar watch made me happy and satisfied until breaking them accidently became expensive and annoying. Switched to pocket watches over the next few years then just gave up because (IMO) jewelery is for girls. Been happy ever since just keeping an eye on the clocks at work. Movado would be my favorite watch for simple looks if I should try again. Good Day.......Pat |
