Nice old Swiss Army. Wife bought it for me around 1992.

Part of the fun of watches is the story and history to each one. You should find the male version. There are so many resources online.

It may be, 😆
since it’s from the 80s I doubt they had a gender confusion problem like today.
besides the fact My wrists are hardly “dainty”
won’t really work. 😂
Jesus how old are you guys? I thought you guys would have smart watches. The last time I wore a watch was before I got a beeper.
Then I went to a cellphone never felt a need to have a watch again.

I have this watch in a knock off. Isnt waterproof. And you have to set it everyday. But its better than spending 4k!
That’s a nice looking watch. Like stated earlier. Some of these nice watches are too busy on the face.
Thank you! Yeah, not a lot going on here. Quick to read. I'm a clutz so the low profile is great for me, but you can see I still bang it around a good amount.

My daughter gave me one similar to this for Christmas. I have a few other watches but this is my favorite now.
That is nice looking. Is yours made of wood or does it just look like it?

Lol, unfortunately you'll never get it.
Fine watches aren't about telling time, they're about wearing a complicated working piece of art on your wrist.
I myself have never even warn a wedding ring, a watch is the only piece of jewelry I wear.

I'm a big fan of Bulova. I have several of their vintage dress watches as well as my military Bulova but I never wear the dress. I suppose I'm more utilitarian in that regard.
My sentimental favorite is the GShock my parents got me for Christmas before I deployed to Afghanistan. Solar, tough (survived an IED unscathed), atomic... Great watch that I'll always have.
New fav is a Galaxy Smart Watch3. Annoying to have to charge it every few days, but functionality is great and looks pretty swanky too.

Actually this is my second favorite. Casio G-Shock G-9300GB-1D Mudman.

I used to collect vintage solid gold Bulova's and others from the 40's & 50" and had several, back when the movement was actually a Swiss mvt.
Know Bulova is just a cheap watch with cheap Japanese movements. Sadly, the Japanese have some super high end movements, but Bulova went the cheap "fashion" route and duped people on brand recognition instead.
I sold all my gold watches because, as you know, they're dainty and mostly too small for a man's watch today.
I still have my "dainty" Loneness gold watch that was given to my Grandfather at retirement, but it looks more like a woman's watch.
