the watch you need

[gunsmith]

 I have been spending way, way, way to much time viewing watch videos.
Like, normally I spend way to much time on gun stuff I can't afford.
Now I am looking at watches I can't afford.
  Casio Duro/Marlin diver watch
 I got this on Amazon recently, just under 60 bucks.
Wearing more than my Gshock rangeman I got last year for a lot more.
 I think you guys would like this watch, if you fall into the water while fishing or something it will be fine.
it is robust , looks good and if you do break it - you're not out a lot .
I plan on buying a few more in different colors because they discontinued it. Eventually the value is bound to go up because every watch collector buys one or 5.
 
 Are you guys wearing watches? What kind?

I wear an Apple Watch these days. Allows me to discretely check calls and texts during classes, tracks my heart rate, and I can choose a variety of faces

Timex Expedition Scout Chronograph. Not a fan of digital, but I need a stopwatch. Same as this, but a black nylon NATO band.

This here: https://timex.com/products/expedition-camper-39mm-fabric-strap-watch-t42571.  Maybe not exactly that.  Dial face watch with luminescent hands and Indiglo light.  Plastic case.  (My sweat will corrode anything that's not plastic or stainless steel.).  Velcro band.

Basic.  All I need or want.

I have a Timex Expedition (not sure the exact model) with an analog dial and no calendar.  I really like the faint green backlighting when you press the stem.  I've had it for about 5 years and it's still on the original battery.  I think I paid $35 for it.

I wear a $25 "quartz" clone of a WW2-style military watch. Basic-basic stuff -- black dial with white numbers and white hands. It does have a date window, which I have never set and which I ignore. I would have just as happy (or happier) without the date window. It tells me the time -- that's why I wear a watch.

I put "quartz" in quotation makes because the blurb for it claims it's a Japanese quarts movement. But it randomly loses up to 5 minutes in a 24-hour day. I've never encountered a quartz movement that's so inaccurate.

Here it is: https://www.amazon.com/Military-Style-Stainless-Steel-Watch-Bands/dp/B00JYG6OAQ/ref=sr_1_5?crid=B2F7MJ8PTCGZ&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.yXYY-ub4CPNYJfUq6ft6sThObghGNM9DgswD-EizAZVhx7raSxeoH9Hu5N54c3jUam2UP7PZMhJ7R7thrsysmF-x7fyJe-pPOKs_onv0lt71-us677S5q2Nkl6gsjJRHMnvdJ0BIFgksqlogchBo6kcy4OpDHTUvYbbp7ruczv_KJEURgUCgEI8-Sve2lvJmNIHJErMDB8c_ckHurSxFLwWJnaiEJrDCJsa2vQPRBEQy1d3wU0WtBu1Z2xXJ3MWL3l_6dpM8goXKI3P3L1MVl416jV-1FK8UKt86Z7JpvUs.LVZEfxMFJnMTdL9wh2lGbb4cWw-MPMuWgA7tHlqM938&dib_tag=se&keywords=ww2-style+military+watch&qid=1714886006&sprefix=ww2-syle+military+watch%2Caps%2C237&sr=8-5

I bought a little wristband thing that told time and tracked bio stuff. It is somewhere in the house. I end up sticking my hands into cars, and stuff gets beat up. I have a 1970s/1980s Seiko that I stuffed a new battery in, but the band doesn't do well with trying to install car headlights.

different machines, different programs. 

Something is watching household network traffic.  I'll also get Bookface suggestions for things my wife has bought or searched on, on a different computer.

I was never really into expensive watches in the past (if I even bothered to wear a watch). My first expensive watch was a Citizen Ecodrive flight chronograph, with the built-in E6B, which I wore both for work and leisure. These days it's in a desk drawer and I don't think I could read the E6B on it anymore without a magnifying glass.

I took a short break from watches when I retired, but then got a Garmin Fenix 5 and got hooked on that both for doing workouts and for general health, wearing it 24/7 for heart rate, stress, and sleep monitoring. I'm currently rocking the Garmin Tactix Delta for the same reasons.

I've not worn a watch for at least 35 years....

My only watch is a Wenger Swiss military. Simple.

I'm certain it's just a happy coincidence ...
