My musical antecedent for Sunday Morning is the Velvet Underground, and it would not be a good workout song

I hate smart watches and I have a collection of about 16 or 18 automatics, mechanicals and quartz watches and I love them all so much.

Same, except I have two watches. A Nomos Metro, a fine piece that my father in law gave me as an excellent and thoughtful gift, and an all-black Casio G Shock I got from a giant electronics store in Tokyo

I also have a love affair with zelos and their super lume dials

I daily a Seiko Arnie SNJ025 and a Citizen Promaster EcoDrive (prob 70:30) but I have a black Citizen Garrison field watch I wear on a Velcro strap I sprinkle in as well. For work I have two black Gshock squares (a DW5600 and a GWM5610 solar) and for play I’ve got an orange and blue 5610 square I just picked up for beach and mtb. I really want to pick up a yellow or green Casioak too at some point. I keep thinking I want to snag an automatic but I really can’t get past the dead-on accuracy of quartz and the decades long reliability of solar quartz. I need to get over some of my pragmatism.

Watches are boring and pretentious. I do not wear them. I also don’t like the feeling of stuff on my wrists or hands. I am pleased that watches bring many of you happiness, though.

I don't normally think about watches and would never wear one, but Julien Baker was wearing a watch last night and it went great with her ensemble. It felt appropriately....butchy.

Joey Freshwater posted:I wear an Apple Watch when I work out or when I’m just out running errands or whenever. So beyond the notifications deal (which is nice, because either your phone buzzing on a desk or being in a pocket and somehow not feeling buzzes are equally annoying), the big reason I stuck with my Apple Watch was early on in the pandemic, when they added the feature to unlock your phone with your watch if it was in range. E.g., unlocking your phone when you couldn't fully get Face ID working - like with a mask on. That was just useful enough, and the notifications on watch a nice enough feature, that I've stuck with it since, and upgraded twice. I'd like to wear my automatics again more (original era Seiko Monster sitting on my dresser, sad and alone) but it's just too useful to use the Apple Watch.

I mean there are Watch Guys and guys that wear watches and I’m in the last category. My Arnie is the most expensive watch I have and it retails at 525 but I got it for 320$. Plus for work I need reliable time on my wrist that isn’t a phone (don’t want a phone out on a guy’s gross chest during a cardiac arrest timing meds and stuff) so I just like having reliable charge-free date/time all the time. Add to that a fondness for cheap watches like Ironman Timex and Gshock from my childhood…

E.g., unlocking your phone when you couldn't fully get Face ID working - like with a mask on. I actually have all notifications on my watch turned off except for phone calls because my phone stays on silent. I do love the alert you can send to your phone to make it chime so you can find it though.

I love my Apple Watch a whole lot. Mine is a Series 3 and she's showing her age so I will need to upgrade at some point. But I love having my texts and poo poo right at my wrist if it's not convenient to have my phone out. I love that I can use it to pay for things places and it can get me into a Disney park. It's probably the most useful piece of tech I own besides my actual phone.

I got a Bulova two Christmases ago that will probably remain the most expensive watch I will ever own. Got a buncha knockoff ones I bought in Phnom Penh of the ones I genuinely like but can never afford. I dreamed about a Breitling Navitimer but like most sane human beings there's a long list of things that could use 3 grand ahead of it.

I have an Apple Watch, but primarily just use it as a sleep tracker. I think it has the worst user interface of any device I've ever used.

My grandpa was a watch guy, but for cheap novelty watches, like obscure versions of the Mickey Mouse watch where the hour and minute hands are his arms. One year we got him a wrist sundial and a compass for Christmas.

I'd assume Disney parks operate the same way. Anyway, I've been a fitbit guy since 2017. I'm on a versa 3. I've been looking at upgrading to the pixel watch since that's got fitbit on it, but...

Yeah for me it’s a Seamaster, but I have the same hang up where I can’t justify that huge of an expense for a watch. I also drool over some of the more expensive Seiko reissues, but again
