Very pretty! I just use a Timex Ironman Triathlon. It has tabata timers in it among the other standard Ironman features. I bought it because of the timers though.

My everyday watch is a Movado two tone. I have several dress watches. Gucci, Omega and I really want a Breitling for Bentley. My wife isn't thrilled about the price though.

Nice watch. I have a metal allergy that keeps me from wearing any thing with metal in it. I have a couple of inherited pocket watches for special occasions but aside from that I'm the guy that goes around asking the time. Great way to start a conversation.

Just bought an Invicta Divers Watch off Amazon. Beautiful Blue Dial and Face.

Up until 5 years ago, I was someone that absolutely had to have a watch on. I hardly ever took it off. Sleep, shower, swimming; it wouldn't come off for anything.
Then one day I took it off because I was finally fed up of the perpetual dry spot on my hand from rubbing against the wind button. It took a little getting used to, but I'm here to tell ya it was nothing less than liberating to drop my watch habit. Surprising, too, is how many clock are all around us once you get out of the habit of turning to your wrist and observe your environment!

Wheelygoatster... I'm right there with you! I was obsessed for years and now have only worn a watch about 5 times in 2 years...

Lol, I'm not sure you want to hear the story of my watch, but anyways- here's what happened:
I had a pretty nice watch (loved it), but in 2 years or so something happened and it stopped, so I decided to keep it broken.
So I got a little sticker "whatever" and put it under the glass thing on the dial, and so here we go!
I am wearing it pretty often, people laugh when they understand the thing)

Being retired, I gave the Tiger Wood Link "Tag" to my son, and now tape a calendar to my wrist!

I'm surprised you do that much havasu. Seems like it would be easier just to ask passing motorist, children on bikes, whatever, the day of the week.
