Watch fanatics? Rolex, Omega, Tudor, Casio (the God Watch)

Am I the only lame one that wears an iwatch? I live off the reminders a notifications.....
I have one. There's a lot I don't like about it, but I will say look at my phone way less when I'm wearing it, which is always a good thing. When I'm not wearing it I find myself checking my phone constantly for emails, texts, etc, the apple watch really cuts down on that.

I did the first series Apple Watch and went all-in on the full steel version. It was like $1,200. After the novelty wore off and the continued fear of water I went back to wearing the trusty old automatic/manual winders. Today, that Apple Watch will hold a charge for 5 minutes and the face is peeling off the steel.

I inherited a cheap Seiko that must be 40 years old now. A little polish, a few minutes in the sun, set the time and it works just like it did in the 1980s.

This must be some kind of bromance watch dating blog :blah:

Let me educate some of you peeps on watchmanhood.

1. Rolex: It's f'n liquid gold, like BTC (bitcoin bitches) - Never sell!!
2. Hamilton: Hands down best made watch for the $$$. It's like dating a model without the maintenance.
3. MB&F: I warned you (no, I didn't) Click Here (watch porn - enter at your own risk) :rocket:

@John.H - that left arm is losing money :2cents:
 
The nerd in me with with the Milgauss!

Milgauss! Z-blue!

Colorful Rolexes are the only way I want one. Submariner has to be a Hulk. Milgauss has to be Z-Blue. GMT has to be rootbeer. Yacht-Master has to be the brown dial. Oyster Perpetual in green or yellow please. Daytona… that's a different story because steel is the only way for me.
