I'm thinking about getting a tissot t touch. Swiss made, the minute and hour hands move around when you ask for the date, temperature, altitude and other things. I'd like to have a boss as Rolex but better to save money for drugs. Anybody have a sick ass watch?

Nixon Corporal in Oxide.

Love the watch, love the back. Best thing about it, it's a completely unique faceplate since it's all just oxidized copper.

Watches compliment an outfit and make you look professional. They also can tell you the altitude and what not, depending on the model.

I also find a watch is much easier and quicker to glance at to see what time it is as opposed to looking at your phone.

Today im rocking my vintage Mortima Super Datomatic 21 Jewel Diver, its large and heavy and is 24hr time. I like to restore quality vintage time pieces. This one is dated back to the mid 60's. I have a few Nixons aswell but as you see above so does everyone else....

this. also if you're out on a business trip, or with a lady, etc. it's much better to be looking at your wrist than pulling out your phone every 3 minutes.

Beautiful. I'd love a piece like that. I love divers and something vintage like that is just the icing on the cake.

Thanks dude, youd be amazed at what you can find on ebay. Similar Mortimas go for around $400. If you want another place to look or are into watchs this is one of the best watch forums http://forums.watchuseek.com/forum.php

I really want to expand my taste into something more luxurious ( Tissot, Movado, Tag/Omega ) when I have more money to spend, but for now I have 2 g shocks and this:

Tissots are the watch that most Swiss citizens buy. The t touches are dope as fuck, cause their hands move. Watch video http://youtube.com/watch?v=wOzSbWWzjz4

It's not fancy, but it has been through a lot and holds up great! Water resistant and small, so it doesn't get in the way.
Wrap around Swatch watch

Straps are easily replaced, I wouldn't let that be a deciding factor.

Some suggestions:

Quartz Diver: Seiko SKA427

Automatic diver: Seiko SKX009

Not with those Chinese quartz movements.

It's just Sea-Gull movements in different more fashion inspired cases and then priced higher.


Best quality for that price is still Seiko.

Honestly if I'm only dropping around $100 on a watch i don't care about the movements. I just want something that looks nice and can give me the time. I understand that Seiko may be of higher quality but fossil has a nice blend of quality and style for a reasonable price.

I don't care how watches work as long they work. Fossils work.

I have had 2 Fossil watches. Both were gifts. Both shit the bed on me and completely died within a year of owning them. I took them both to the Fossil store at the mall, thinking it was just a battery issue, but both times they told me the watch was completely dead and I would have to pay to send it away to be repaired. I will not wear another Fossil watch.

As for the types of watches I currently have:

Citizen
Timex
Tag Heuer x2
G-Shock for work

All but the RG Hublot were bought by me. The RG Hublot was a present from my father on my 30th birthday.

Thanks for your input

While I will admit I've never seen a Hublot in person, I can't say I would never buy one. Super nice, but I don't like the style. The Deep Dea is my dream watch though.

Props to you for a legit collection though.

You have a collection of the most replicated watches, Hublot Big Bangs, Rolexes and a Panerai.
All you provide is a hazy unclear picture.

You are coming in with a big claim, I don't believe you.

Claim. Here is the most expensive in my collect for you to inspect. Also I threw in my Panerai; I guess you'll tell me the people who replicate Panerais also fake the plastic face cover too lol Click for larger image Click for larger image Click for larger image Now go jump on ebay and do a comparison and come back to apologize /claim.
