    Now that's a MAN'S watch!


    Big flat metal surface!

    The word DIESEL in all caps!

    Big plainly visible screws to make it more... MACHINE-Y!

    AND TO CHECK THE TIME, YOU JUST PUNCH YOURSELF SQUARELY IN THE FACE! *GRUNT!*

    That seems almost impractical as the Parmigiani Fleurier Faubourgs.



    A watch you can only use while performing socialist salutes. Ironically.

    I think the big shame is this. My Casio cost ~$50. It's solar powered, updates itself 4 times a day to be accurate, can tell all time zones, and is waterproof to a certain depth.


    Then you have really expensive watches, which for all of their bells and whistles, aren't as accurate. Of course there is an exception.

    A Rouchefoucauld. The thinnest water-resistant watch in the world. Singularly unique, sculptured in design, hand-crafted in Switzerland, and water resistant to three atmospheres. It was THE sports watch of the '80s. Six thousand, nine hundred and fifty five dollars retail! And, it told time simultaneously in Monte Carlo, Beverly Hills, London, Paris, Rome, and Gstaad.

    I love watches, but this it idiocy. Watches no matter the cost, only have to do one thing well: tell time. Why would you want to screw that up for aesthetics. Just buy a damn bracelet!

    @Slim Calhoun:
    My dad had a rich uncle who collected watches and lighters. He had "disposable" lighters that were bigger than a pop can, and I remember that he had this funky digital watch that did not display anything on the face. It didn't really look like it displayed anything on the edges, either, but if you held the face up towards a bright light the time would glow in red on the edge above the band.

    @Lord Pferdestärke the 357th: If I had to get a watch, analog would be it, unless I was feeling silly, then I'd get a chunky casio watch like Napoleon Dynamite.
